Hollywood Pop Stars Ditch Sweet for Sexy
Everyone grows and changes, but in Hollywood the maturing process sometimes requires more drastic measures like laying on the sex appeal, ditching your clothes and making sure everyone knows you're "not that innocent." We've combed through plenty of movies, videos and photo shoots to showcase how our favorite good girls decided to amp up their sex appeal.
Britney Spears
Britney Spears burst onto the scene in a tarted-up school girl uniform and her sex appeal hasn't stopped there. Now ten years into the game, we've learned from her mother Lynn Spear's memoirs -- all that good southern virgin talk may not have been entirely true. But it was her scandalous bejeweled striptease during the 2000 MTV VMAs that she graduated from the girl-next-door to a worldwide sex symbol.
Christina Aguilera
Though Christina didn't have as pervasive of a good girl image as her fellow Mouseketeer alum, jaws definitely dropped when the popstar reemerged in 2002 as "Xtina" wearing leather chaps and not much else.
Melissa Joan Hart
From the sweet girl on 'Clarissa Explains It All' to the bewitching star on 'Sabrina The Teenage Witch,' Melissa Joan Hart stepped out in a big way in 1999 when she took it all off for Maxim.
RIhanna
This fresh-faced Barbadian beauty may not have been in the business long but that doesn't mean she hasn't had time for a total about face. On 2007's 'Good Girl Gone Bad,' a bolder, sexier
Rihanna emerged and is staying strong to this day with her even darker and contemplative release, 'Rated R.' And judging by her outfits (or lack thereof) these days, that's exactly the rating we'd give her.
Drew Barrymore
At only 5 years old, a pint-sized Drew Barrymore grabbed America by the heartstrings in 'E.T.' and proceeded to steal the show from her alien costar. By 13, however, she was partying hard on the Hollywood circuit, landing in rehab several times and eventually emancipating herself from her parents. Drew went on to star in 'Poison Ivy' as a manipulative teenage seductress, pose for Playboy and even performed a live striptease for David Letterman's birthday. Drew seems to have mellowed out in recent years, but we still love her to Reeses Pieces.
Hilary Duff
Hilary Duff started her career as every American's tween BFF on 'Lizzie McGuire.' So what's she been up to since? A handful of movies, albums and a few sexy Maxim spreads later, Duff was most recently engaging in a threesome on 'Gossip Girl.'
Vanessa Hudgens
The sweet and innocent girl we met on Disney's 'High School Musical' was exposed in 2007 after nude photos appeared online. Although she released several statements regretting her lapse in judgment, Hudgens emerged as a bombshell on the red carpet, wearing skimpy, curve-hugging dresses during the movie's red carpet premieres.
Miley Cyrus
First it was
Miley Cyrus' Vanity Fair photo shoot (where she wore only a blanket covering her body) that had people up in arms. But her controversies didn't stop there. This summer's pole dance at the Teen Choice Awards left us wondering whether Miley might be trying to go from sweet good girl to sexy fox. We will have to wait for the Playboy and Maxim shoots, but we have a feeling they'll be coming sooner than we think.
