15 Celeb Summer Abs That Are Sizzlin Louder Than Bacon

"Summer-summer-summertime (Ooh, the summertime), Time to sit back and unwind (Time to sit back and unwiiind); Summer-summer-summertime… " - yes, don't mind us as we jam out to DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince's anthem on the way to the shore. Certain aspects, come with certain seasons. With the summer, for instance: "Summertime" gets it's annual play on the car radio, pools and boardwalks open back up, and bathing suit bodies get exposed and showcased. Pecs, biceps, triceps, backs, cavs, hamstrings, glutes and abs make their debuts at swimming pools and beaches all across the globe. Individuals enjoying the warm weather, walk around, strutting their stuff for all to see.

Now, there are some beach struts that meet the eye, that should be outlawed and met with penalty… Speedo's on some are more like, Speed-OH-no's! Though, unlike the plethora of jelly rolls and beer kegs we'll view this summer - some celebs are sporting brawny, flawless torsos this sizzling season. These celebrities have trained exceedingly hard all winter long, and have now, broken out their chiseled hardware. Hold onto your beach chair… because the following 15 celeb summer abs are going to knock your flip flops off!

15 Hugh Jackman

Oh yeah, Hugh Jackman is The Wolverine off-screen too - well, at least his body is (just minus the claws). Perhaps, we should call him Hugh JackedUp instead! Since the formal definition of jacked means: (of a person) having very well-developed muscles - we feel the nickname indubitably suits him. The Logan star has made a name for himself in Hollywood; not necessarily for his acting, but for his dynamic midsection. Look at those abs… you can grate cheese on those things! Can't find the cheese grater, no problem… call Jack! "Sharp cheddar for me Hugh, thanks bro," The 49-year-old actor took his strength and physique to new heights at an age when most men begin slowing down. For the role of Wolverine, Jackman took on a super intense 4-week program that transfigured him from man into mutant. In only a month?? - holy shinto, now that's for real!

14 Vanessa Hudgens

What do you think Vanessa Hudgens has 26.1 million followers on Instagram for? We'll tell you - for her abs! There must be something to that flat tummy tea… magic herbs grown alongside the fountain of youth or something. Of course we know there's way more to Hudgens obtaining abs like that than some measly tea; vigorous exercise and a healthy diet figure in as well. The 29-year-old actress/singer has come a long way from her Disney channel days we'll tell you that. Hudgens was always revered as cute and adorable, but now - she's the freakin' bomb! She's yet to bear lil ones, but when/if she does (or adopts), she gonna be the smokin'ness MILF shopping for Similac to ever grace a Hollywood grocery store. Belie dat ?

13 Kevin Hart

Few things we known about Kevin Hart: he's funny, he's very funny, he's the top comedian out now, he's a mega superstar actor, and he's got a lot of paper (net worth of $120 million). Recently, something else has come to light about the entertainer - he's got abs of steel! You see him getting busy with Serena below… you know what time it is. Kev has been playing no games in regards to getting his body and mind right. Hart may clown family members such as his father and son on stage, but when it comes to physical fitness, he puts all jokes aside. "I feel like I'm having a Hart attack!", Chocolate Droppa joked to a crowd of about 1,000 while doing body weight exercises and cardio at Grand Park in Los Angeles. Okay well, maybe he hasn't put all jokes aside…

12 Megan Fox

Have you noticed, that celebrities with the last name Fox tend to be strikingly impressive? Megan Fox, Matthew Fox, Michael J. Fox, Vivica A. Fox, Rick Fox (no, not Jaime Foxx… his name is Eric Bishop actually). Out of all the Foxes though, Megan is perhaps the foxiest. Look at those abs… "yes bring it home to mama," We could pinpoint many of Meg's other breathtaking features, however we'll just stick to the stomach for this particular write-up. Megan has exhibited her toned torso in such movies as The Transformers and TMNT 2; and because of it, DVD sales for those films flew through the roof. Come to think of it, I bought those DVD's! Don't get it twisted though, Megan's impressive abs don't come without hard work. From what her trainer says, the actress' exercise regime is nothing for amateurs.

11 Liam Hemsworth

So, this is what Miley Cyrus comes home to when she's not on tour huh?! Liam Hemsworth is a renowned heartthrob; and if he happens to have his brother Chris (who plays Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe) with him, best bet, is to just hide your girl! Liam's got his summer abs ready as you can see and is coming to a beach near you. No surprise that'd be, for Liam absolutely loves the ocean; so much even that he honored the ocean on World Oceans Day this year. “… I love and care about the ocean. Today is about celebrating one of the most important resources on our planet. We must work together to protect it for future generations. #ItsNotOk #WorldOceansDay #100islandsprotected,”  the Neighbours actor wrote on his Instagram. Eh between the ocean and those abs, maybe we'll see him in Baywatch 2 (if they make one)!

10 Gwen Stefani

No Doubt's, Gwen Stefani, was known from the beginning for her rock hard abs; it was kinda her signature even. In every video pretty much, you'd see Stefani floating around singing in some kind of belly shirt displaying her awesome abdomen. Now, how does she keep it so tight? Word on the curb, is the singer participates in workouts that are unlike those most female celebrities perform. Stefani likes to workout "just like a man", she says. She recently expressed that she doesn't care for yoga or Pilates, but prefers traditionally male oriented weightlifting and boxing. In other words - she's a straight beast! Stefani has a routine that she usually sticks to, but can be unscripted with her workouts at times; she's all about doing high-intensity cardio moves, often with dumbbells or medicine balls. No wonder her summer abs are on super fleek ?

9 Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson

Okay, the man's alias is "The Rock" for pete's sake- need we say more! Being a semi-retired professional wrestler and former college football star, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has excelled in creating and maintaining a well tuned athletic machine-like body. You could launch a cannon ball at those abs and it would bounce off like a rubber band! In 2016, Johnson became the the highest-paid actor in the world (with $64.5 million earned in the bygone year). Now, why do you think that is? Simple… because people were running to see The Rock's marvel of a physique on the black screen! Johnson's abs are one the many reasons women around the globe look forward to the hot season.

8 Khloe Kardashian

You've seen the recent images of Khloé K… her abs went from flab to fab! The eldest Kardashian sister has seriously reinvented herself and now has one of the hottest bods in all of Hollywood. Earlier this month, Khloé Kar wrote an article on her website where she reveals the best foods to eat when you want to flatten your stomach. "… Avoid salt and load up on these 5 foods that will flatten your belly in no time!", she wrote. 1) Avocados: "Break out the guac, dolls! But hold the salty tortilla chips!", 2) Spicy Ginger: "This spicy root is one of the oldest known natural belly cures," 3) Watermelon: "Watermelon is an excellent way to regulate salt levels and flush out the excess water," 4) Tomatoes: "Tomatoes have extremely effective anti-inflammatory and de-bloating effects," and 5) Oats: "Oats balance the bacteria in your gut."

7 Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds has one the best 6-packs in Hollywood. In fact, to this day people are still gossiping about his shredded abs from the film Blade Trinity. For that particular movie Reynolds did 6-day-a week workouts and maintained a 3,200-calorie daily diet for a total of 6 months, which gained him 25 pounds of muscle. His exercise regime for Deadpool was just as intense. "I've been a fan of Deadpool all my life, so i was gonna murder someone if it wasn't me [who played him],” Reynolds recalls. "I had to gain muscle quickly. I was eating, like, live children as they passed in order to bulk up." Well they obviously made the right choice in selection because not only was Reynolds amusing in the superhero motion picture, he was too ripped like a torn piece of paper!

6 Jada Pinkett-Smith

Wow, look at Jada Pinkett-Smith's chiseled core! She is by far the hottest 46-year-old walking around Earth, let alone Hollywood. At just 5 feet tall and weighing 108 pounds, Pinkett-Smith shows good things don't come in small packages - super duper awesome things come in small packages! "My trainer and I are into reps instead of heavy weights because the goal is now about sculpting," the actress said in reference to her abs. Shucks, even her husband (Will Smith) is drooling over her frame. "When my husband of almost 20 years can't take his eyes off me? That's amazing," said Jada. Yeah, we bet… Will is having the time of his freakin' life with that small package! We salute you, Jada.

5 Joe Manganiello

If a picture's worth a thousand words, then the above picture is worth 0 words - because it leaves you speechless, there's nothing to say! Joe Manganiello's abs look like someone drew them on or like he's wearing one of those Halloween muscle costumes… unreal. Manganiello details in his book that it was hard work in the gym, and a crazy diet that transformed his body. As a male dancer in Magic Mike, Manganiello had his abs and chest on front street. Manganiello says the key to abs is cardio. The actor uses the morning to do low-intensity cardio workouts on an empty stomach. He then splits his afternoon training between, incline treadmill, interval treadmill and elliptical training. "Between each superset, you rest for one minute. Then, repeat the superset 3 more times. Finish with cardio", says Manganiello, "This is the key to getting a six pack." Well eh, he would know right!

4 Teyana Taylor

Quiet as kept, Teyana Taylor maybe has thee hottest body out of all (female) celebs. Taylor's body is so sincere, that if she were to cross the street, she would genuinely cause a 6-car pile up. Yeah, and I'd be one of those fools who crashes their vehicle gawking at her too! ? You'd think with that off-the-hook bod, Taylor would get into the fitness game and teach folks how to mold their own frames. Hmm, guess we spoke to soon! In 2016, the musician/actress launched her fitness website-Fade 2 Fitness, letting everyone in on her secrets. Taylor encourages fans to become members of her site, where she shares dance workouts and behind the scenes footage of her workout choreography. Taylor says dancing is the only way she keeps her body so fit. “DONT SLEEP ON DANCE!!”, she says. Tay, with that body, dead people couldn't sleep on you girl!

3 Cristiano Ronaldo

Okay, so, we Google'd the most followed users on Instagram 2017. #3 on the list, was this guy named Cristiano Ronaldo (yes, ahead of (Kim Kardashian West, Taylor Swift and Beyoncé). Of course now, we're like, "Who in the *bleep* is Cristiano Ronaldo? And why does he have 105 million IG followers?" Again, we Google'd Cristiano Ronaldo, and after the above image popped up… it all began to make sense! Cristiano Ronaldo is a professional footballer from Portugal; and telling by the number of followers he has, is obviously a soccer god. Cristiano was recently named the Top Athlete in the World according to ESPN's Top 100 ranking. Aside all that, the dude's core is shredded like something we've never seen. Can you imagine the screams he gets from female soccer fans at his games? ¡Ay, caramba!

2 Kourtney Kardashian

Kourtney K's body is so lit these days… that even her own sister Kim has been hating on her! It was reported, that Kim K has been “green with envy” over her sister's bangin' bikini bod. Apparently, Kimmy totally envies Kourtney's super fit physique. “Kim's extremely jealous of Kourtney's bikini body, don't get me wrong she's proud of her, but she still can't help feel like she's losing some sort of competition,” says a source close to the pair. “She [Kim] and Kourtney have always been this way. When they were kids they would compete over every little thing and not much has changed.” Wow, now that's saying something. Kourtney, being the belle she is, shared a tip with fans via her app regarding her impeccable abs; revealing kettlebell deadlifts and squats are what got her the ultimate 6-pack.

1 Zac Efron

Hey, even Baywatch star Alexandra Daddario praised Zac Efron's abs. “He had abs in places I didn't know you could have abs,” the actress said. “It wasn't just like, 'Oh, he's hot' -although he is! - but like, 'Look how hard you worked for this character." Indeed, Efron put in massive overtime when it came to defining his body for the role of Matt Brody. He got so ridiculously buff for the Baywatch part, even his costars were appreciative of his efforts. “That's cool to watch an actor really get into their character like that. The abs, and having abs in paces that you didn't know you could have abs, was part of that character.”, Daddario continued. “He's, like, not human. He's like something Michelangelo carved. I've never seen a man that looks like him. It's incredible.” Alexandra, 'incredible' is putting it very, VERY lightly…
