The FABlife Bikini Awards: The Wives Club

(It’s that time of year again! Welcome to TheFABlife Bikini Awards, where we pit half-naked celebs against each other and you vote for the finest skin-flaunter of the summer of 2011.)

Voting is now closed. Thanks for participating!

These lovely ladies are stars in their own right, but they also happen to be married (or almost-married) to some big players. Kelly Bensimon is the ex of photographer Gilles Bensimon and a Real Housewife of NYC, Vanessa Minnillo is the new Mrs. Nick Lachey, CoCo calls Ice-T her hub-e and Crystal Harris came thisclose to being Mrs. Hugh Hefner. But who is the hottest?

Vanessa Minnillo Serenaded At Her Bachelorette Party By A Shirtless Nick Lachey Impersonator

Vanessa Minnillo wins the award for “Most Surreal Bachelorette Party Ever”. The lovely television starlet held her big event at the LAVO club in Las Vegas, and in keeping with tradition hubby-to-be Nick Lachey was nowhere to be found. But that’s where the nod to tradition ends, as a Nick Lachey impersonator was led out and began serenading Vanessa with 98 Degrees songs while stripping off his shirt. Oh, and did we mention that he was also a little person? That’s right: a little person who happens to be a professional Nick Lachey impersonator. Only in Vegas! We hope there’s a video…

We’re not sure how we would respond to a “scaled down” doppelganger of our spouse stripping for us in public, but Vanessa seemed to have a good time and really let loose. She even jumped into the DJ booth, grabbed the mic and screamed to the crowd, “I’m about to get married. I’m about to get a ball and chain. . . but not yet and tonight’s my bachelorette party!” The festivities continued into the next day, when the bride-to-be and her friends celebrated with a cabana bikini party on the Cosmopolitan Club rooftop. Check out the pics in the gallery below!

Tony Romo Engaged, Nick Lachey Domino Effect Continues

Tony Romo & Candance Crawford

You know those rom-coms that end with everyone getting married? Well, another member of Jessica Simpson‘s supporting cast is headed to the altar. Footballer Tony Romo, who dated Simpson from November 2007 until the summer of 2009, has announced his engagement to former Miss Missouri Candice Crawford. This news comes only a month after Jessica announced her own engagement to Eric Johnson, which happened two weeks after her ex-husband Nick Lachey revealed he was engaged to Vanessa Minnillo. You can’t make this crap up.

Though we’re sure Jessica will make the same game face Nick does when people ask him about her nuptials, we wouldn’t be surprised if she’s less than enthused. After all, Her split from Romo was blamed in part on her desire to get hitched (that and Joe Simpson‘s football advice). Hopefully Candice Bergen won’t schedule everyone for the same day and location.

Vanessa Minnillo Bikini Pics Proves It Rules To Be Nick Lachey

vanessa_main

You would think an ex-boy bander and former reality show has-been would lead kind of a bummer life. But Nick Lachey has a new reason to make us all wish we were him, and her name is Vanessa Minnillo. The happy couple announced their engagement last week, and spent the weekend in the 98 degree (we’re guessing) heat of Mexico for a joint birthday bash. We bet even Nick high five’d himself when no one was looking.

Check out the gallery below for just twelve of the reasons why we think Nick Lachey has a pretty sweet life.

Vanessa Minnillo And Nick Lachey Are Engaged

barnstable brown 010510

Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey are engaged, people. Lachey tweeted the happy news, writing, “I popped the question on bended knee. I do a lot of squats so my knees are very strong.” And you know what, it’s nice to hear people making a go of it, especially with all these celebrity breakups pouring in. These two have been dating since 2006, and survived a split last year, so maybe they’re in it for the long haul. Nick’s been married once before, to Jessica Simpson, and their betrothed antics were immortalized on their television show Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica. [Hint Nick: no more reality TV].

And do you know what the secret of their, hopefully, successful marriage will be? Minnillo and Lachey shower together twice a day. This is clean talk, so get your mind out of the gutter (we say this to ourselves too) because Vanessa explained, “It’s not a sexual thing and it’s not a romantic thing, it just becomes an intimate thing. You’re in your full form, so to speak, and you’re vulnerable and we just both let our guard down. I’ve had some of my most intimate conversations with him in the shower.” And with that, there’s no such thing as TMI anymore.

Congrats you two! May your hygienic union be long and fruitful.

Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey Prove Celebs Even Shower Better Than Us

vanessa_nickgettyimages

Not only do famous people already have better clothes, cars and hair than us, they also apparently shower better than us too. Can’t you let us have something, you stupid sexy celebs? For example, Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey shower together twice a day and make it sound like the ultimate expression of human love, as well as very drying.

Says Vanessa, “We shower, honestly, at least twice a day. We shower in the morning and we shower at some point during the day or before bed. It’s so funny because we’ve turned it into an intimate time for each other.” At least twice! Do they sometimes shower more than that?! Vanessa and Nick, we love you, but keep that up and your skin is going to fall off in one piece like a snake’s.

According to Vanessa, “It’s not a sexual thing and it’s not a romantic thing, it just becomes an intimate thing. You’re in your full form, so to speak, and you’re vulnerable and we just both let our guard down. I’ve had some of my most intimate conversations with him in the shower.” But…but…but this goes against everything we know about two hot celebrities getting naked and soapy within ten feet of each other! That’s it. We are going on a shower strike until Vanessa and Nick learn to use theirs correctly. And since we blog from home, we were basically already doing that anyway! [Photo: Getty Images]
