As asexual as people perceived him to be, Michael Jackson sure was a Casanova when it came to his music videos. Truthfully, everyone forgets how hot MJ's female leads were. Everyone, that is, except for us.
The King of Pop kept a roster of sexy ladies on deck that rival those in any of today's rap videos, so we couldn't help but dig into the archives in his honor. Join us as we take a look back at MJ's 8 Hottest Female Leads...
VIDEO: "Thriller" (1983) [Watch It]
FEMALE LEAD: Ola Ray
FUN FACT: Ola was Playboy's Playmate of the Month in June 1980. To which we say, "Ola, ola, AY!"

FEMALE LEAD: Naomi Campbell
FUN FACT: Originally a duet with Madonna, the planned collabo was deaded when MJ deemed her lyrics too provocative. Now that's a video we'd love to see...

FEMALE LEAD: Lisa Dean
FUN FACT: One-hundred girls auditioned on film for the lead "legs" role, but MJ instantly chose Lisa, the first girl he reviewed. Forgive him, bookshelf-ass wasn't as big a trend in the '80s.
