15 Stars That Are Thick And Hot AF
Thin was once in, but now baby's got back and the fellas are digging it. And while Jennifer Lopez may be the original instigator of the “thick” look and the Kardashians have made it their moniker, a lot of other celebrity ladies have relaxed an obsession with looking like Twiggy for the new thick and sexy.
Ironically, research shows that since the beginning of mankind, men have preferred ladies of bodily substance. According to a story that ran on a site called Cosmotology.com (not related to the magazine Cosmopolitan), cave men were attracted to women with large posteriors because those type of women tended to be able to bear several children, and back then (and still in some cultures today), a man with many children was considered rich.
Many children meant the continuation of the family, as well as the likelihood that mom and pops would be taken care of as they grew older and were less productive members of the family.
Writes Cosmotology: “So it's ironic in today's world, after centuries of believing men desired sleek and chic figures, that women are longing for larger posteriors, except perhaps today, it's not to send a fertile signal but more of a “I am hot” signal.”
Indeed, becoming thick and sexy has become an obsession for many, who endure plastic surgery to get the look that is now openly craved by both men and women, and celebrities are no exception, as ladies like Amber Rose, Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé openly flaunt their sexy thickness.
So now that thin is out and thick is in, we've got the ultimate list of celebrity ladies who - pound for pound - ain't afraid to be sexily large and in charge.
15 Kelly Clarkson
Even though she's put on a few pounds and gotten thick, the original “American Idol” winner is sexy, strong and still pumping out hits. With platinum records, sold-out tours and a family under her fashionable belt, Clarkson knows she's got it going on. Just this week, an Internet troll went on Twitter and called her “fat,” and Clarkson countered with the best snapback ever, replying “… and still f**king awesome!” Her fans supported her fully, with one going so far to say this about the 35-year-old: “She's sexy as hell! I'm gay and Kelly makes me reconsider.”
14 Rihanna
And just last month, another star baby getting some back is that Barbadian beauty Rihanna. Just when you thought the boss babe couldn't get any sexier… bam! She took her curves to another level. Of course the so-called fat shamers came out of their dark little caves to comment. But like her sister in song Kelly Clarkson, Ri-Ri had a stinging rebuttal. On her Instagram, Rihanna shared two pics side by side of rapper Gucci Mane, one from 2007 and one from 2017 (where he obviously had a new slamming physique). She commented: “If you can't handle me a my 2007 Gucci Mane, then you don't get me at my 2917 Gucci Mane.” Her followers love her new sexy look with one saying, “I like me some thickness,” with another one adding “You look good boo… all slim/thick and fine.”
13 Niecy Nash
Niecy Nash, formerly of Reno 911 (for which she won two Emmy Awards) and The Soul Man with Cedric the Entertainer, Nash is out front now with a rockin' backside on the nee TNT hit Claws. The 47-year-old mother of three rocks tight clothes with a flat stomach and bodacious backside that has millions of viewers tuning in to what she will wear next. No doubt Nash is thick and sexy, and she knows it. Recently on her Instagram, the dark beauty said of her fabulous figure, “These hips caught two husbands (and a few boos), my thighs touch but I gained weight having good food with great people.” Nash showed being thick and sexy doesn't limit your physical activity when she was on Dancing with the Stars a few years back, “I love looking like a woman,” she told People. “My joy is my biggest gift. If there is something I want to do, I'm going to take a shot.”
12 Drew Barrymore
Once a child star, Drew Barrymore is now a sexy and voluptuous Hollywood leading lady. The 40-something divorced mother of two (who posed for Playboy at age 19) says she isn't fazed by the “ridiculous pressure” to be thin. According to the Daily Mail she thinks it's “just crazy to worry about that.” And she told E! Online , “I don't have a bikini body,” and she's OK with that. And so are a lot of her fans as well as several websites who have included her on their lists of sexy stars. Barrymore admits her curvy shape comes from giving birth to her children and also her love of food. The award-winning actress's curvy shape remains a mainstay on the small silver screens in 2017, with her starring roles in the NetFlix series “Santa Clarita Diet,” “Blooms” and “Freak Show,” of which she is executive producer.
11 Tracee Ellis Ross
One thing “Black-ish” co-star Tracee Ellis Ross loves to do is show off her bodacious behind, especially when on the red carpet, where her over-the-shoulder look is downright famous. The former “Girlfriends” star and daughter to the original boss - Diana Ross - is statuesque yet stacked in the right place to put her high on the thick and sexy list. Indeed, this mahogany diva of mixed heritage has never been shy about her bottom bounty either. On both Facebook and Instagram, Ross has often talked about shaking what her mama gave her. “I woke up like this,” she once posted on social media. “I love my butt in a way I didn't growing up”, Ellis recently admitted in an interview with Health magazine. , saying that she didn't use to like it when she was younger, because it was bigger than anyone else's. But with time, she got to appreciate her body and embrace it. “I started to get comfortable with the largeness of my personality. The same thing with my butt.”
10 Iggy Azalea
The rapper not only has a big booty, she showed it inadvertently during a performance of “Big Booty” back in 2014 while performing at an event in Los Angeles. This is of course before she blew up and became able to show off her assets in better clothes on international stages. And in 2015 the bodacious babe pared with the original booty queen - Jennifer Lopez - in a video single called “Booty” that made the rounds on the Internet. During an interview with Nessa of Vlad TV, the Australian rapper admits she loves pants but has had them split on her at least three during performances. She also said that when she buys dresses, she often has to have them altered to fit her popping posterior. “You're safe with Spanx,” she said, claiming that the material allows her butt to move around in lieu of busting out her outfit. There are rumors she's had plastic surgery, but at the same time, no one is complaining.
9 Heida Montag
Colorado has buttes (small, steep isolated hills) and it also has a beaut of a butt in native Heidi Montag. The blond bombshell decided a few years ago to enhance her butt with plastic surgery and she's not afraid to flaunt that big behind ever since. In fact, the 30-something actress and partner to Spencer Pratt posted a photo recently where she spoofed a Kim Kardashian photo while in Hawaii, reported Us Magazine, with a barely there bikini and an over-the-shoulder-shot while sitting on a wooden bar. While she didn't straight out admit her booty was enhanced, she told the ladies on “The View” that she did have plastic surgery. “[My doctor] told me everything that was wrong with me. I felt really insecure, and he gave me a really great deal on it all. He didn't tell me how extensive it was going to be, how severe, how painful, so I had no idea.” But she did it anyway, and it looks like she's not afraid to show off her backside when the opportunity arises.
8 Eva Mendes
This beautiful babe of the big screen has played across a variety of Hollywood's top leading men, including Denzel Washington (“Out of Time”), Will Smith (“Hitch”) and Nicholas Cage (“Ghost Rider”), just to name a few. She has always rocked her parts and says, according to Shape magazine, that she doesn't let the scale dictate her life and that she embraces her curvaceous (and natural) body. In fact, the actress told Fox News a few years back that she actually uses her sexiness to obtain movie roles. “I don't allow myself to be typecast, but when I have to turn up the heat and turn up the sexuality… it's very conscious, that's no accident. It's very methodical on my part,” Mendes explained. “If I feel it's appropriate to show some nudity in the scenes then I go for it. As much as I use my sexuality, I have never felt exploited. I feel like it's on my terms and I have no problem with it.”
7 Tyra Banks
The once supermodel turned TV host once pranced the runway in a skinny shape, but nowadays she renounces the fashion industry's one-time obsession with the bonier babe. In fact, a few years back on “Live with Kelly and Michael,” she told the pair that she felt like she looks better as a thicker woman, and Michael Strahan agreed, and then asked her, “What's your secret?” Banks answered with a snappy “Some ass.” You go girl! Fresh off of hosting “America's Got Talent,” the 40-something Banks celebrated the 4th with some fresh photos of her curvaceous, flag-waving self in a one piece light blue bathing suit and patriotic hat. Oh, and she also donned red lipstick in the spirit of the red, white and blue. The Daily Mail called her effervescent look “patriotic chic.” Banks is definitely embracing her curves and no qualms about showing them off. And her followers loved it, with one commenting, “Looking beautiful! God bless America!”
6 Fergie
Someone once said, “You're not getting older, you're getting better.” And that's definitely true when it comes to Black Eyed Peas singer and solo artist Fergie. The blond beauty is also a mom and giving birth seems to also have launched a more enhanced chest and backside. The singer, 41, looks nothing short of stunning in a bikini nowadays and when she performs, she easily makes a leather one piece cool as a popsicle on a hot summer's day, as shown in a pic posted on her Instagram earlier this month. This is another 40-something star that knows how to show off her shape, post baby. Fergie, whose real name is Stacy Ann Ferguson, told Ellen on her talk show that she works out by doing belly dancing. The singer loves to wear thigh-high boots and clinging body suits to show off her assets while she also wows crowds with her tenacious talent when it comes to a song.
5 Coco Austin
Ice Tea used to be a platinum selling rapper, but then he embraced his role, ironically, as a police detective on the long-running “Law & Order: SVU.” The next surprise came when he married renowned stripper Coco Austin and the two had a baby girl, which they named Chanel. Coco was rocking it before baby, and she continues the assault on men's senses with her bangin' body. On “The Tonight Show” the buxom babe revealed that she didn't go back to the gym until several months after Chanel was born, and that she leaves her in day care at the gym while she works out for three hours. While Coco admits she lost some weight, she says she put it back on in all the right places by rebuilding muscle. “I got a little skinny for my taste during pregnancy and wanted to build some muscle back and thankfully I have gained some weight back recently so I have gotten thicker naturally,” she told Too Fab.com.
4 Jennifer Love Hewitt
“The Ghost Whisperer” star may have shed some pounds after her babies were born, but she kept some key assets mainly up top and on the bottom as well. And after some Internet trolls called her fat, the stunning starlet took to wearing tight dresses that showed off what some may consider her best parts. Ironically, the once teen sensation at age 33 began playing an escort on “The Client List,” a role that demanded she look good, damn good. The “Heartbreakers” star is also a singer and has actually recorded four albums. What does she sing about? Love of course! She's appeared on Maxim's Hot 100 list numerous times. The buxom beauty once told Playboy of her breasts: “I just accepted them as an accessory to every outfit.” The former “Criminal Minds” cast member was also seen several times on “Hot in Cleveland” but has not taken on any starring roles recently, instead concentrating on work as a producer and director.
3 Selena Gomez
This former Disney darling has made her way out into the world as a singer and also continuing as an actress. Once romantically linked to Justin Beiber, the Latin beauty shared a kiss with reported boyfriend The Weekend on the red carpet in May at the Met Gala. In addition to being on tour, the former star of “The Wizards of Waverly Place” has a hit show on Netflix called “13 Reasons Why.” While she now embraces her curves, she admits that the so-called fat shamers bothered her when photos of her out with Bieber in a bikini surfaced on the Internet. Over time, the rising star has become more comfortable with her body and this spring graced the cover of Vogue. She took on 73 questions in the Vogue article, and when asked what advice she would give herself at 15, she said, “Go ahead and do it 'cause you're gonna do it anyway.”
2 Sofia Vergara
This Latin beauty was a star on South American TV before she became the apple of everyone's eye on the ABC hit series “Modern Family.” Like many of our beautiful thick and sexy ladies, Vergara is in her 40s (44 to be exact) and still showcasing a body that is the envy of millions of women and the desire of even more millions of men. The buxom beauty told People earlier this spring that she maintains that bountiful butt by doing high density, low impact Pilates-inspired Lagree Method exercises using what's called the Megaformer machine. Her personal trainer, Jennifer Yates, told People that Vergara is a beast when it comes to working out. “She's really strong,” Yates said. “She loves working the butt!” The Colombian-born actress says she does have a weakness when it comes to sweets. The popular eye candy told Shape: “When I do indulge, I exercise a bit harder the next day. My motto is really simple: No pain, no cake!”
1 Serena Williams
There's not way you can do a list like this without including the greatest female athlete in the world - Serena Williams. The hottest star to hit the tennis court has never had any qualms about her thick figure, which has brought her dozens of tennis championships and multi-million dollar endorsement deals for everything from Oreo cookies to mattresses. Williams is currently off the tennis circuit as she is due with her first child, but her body remains a sight to behold and has graced the covers of magazines ranging from Sports Illustrated and Fitness to Vanity Fair and Vogue. Believe it or not, Williams told the Huffington Post that she had to grow to love her non-traditional athletic frame. “When I was young I thought I should be built more like an athlete - long and lean - not with a womanly figure. But then people my age started coming up to me, saying, 'I love you because of the way you look.' They could relate to me. That was really motivating. So I learned to be proud of my curves and to embrace my large boobs and my butt. It's all about loving who you are and realizing that you're beautiful.”
