Women of color stay winning but the fairest of them all are working it out too.
From the bodacious spitter Iggy Azalea to actress Gwyneth Paltrow, our much lighter ladies are on the come-up. Check out a few white Vixens who hustle hard.
Iggy Azalea
This Aussie MC holds it down as the sole female on T.I.‘s Grand Hustle gang and puts in overtime as a Wilhelmina model. With a 5’10” stature, the blonde bombshell sticks out literally and lyrically. Check her cypher performance alongside Tip, B.o.B., Trae The Truth and Chipmunk at the BET Awards below.
Gwyneth Paltrow
Beyoncé‘s bestie came under fire for tweeting the ‘N’ word in Paris at Jay-Z and Kanye West‘s Watch The Throne concert (which still rattles us!). Since, the actress has changed the focus and proven that she can carry a note in ballads like “Country Strong” and on Glee. She and gal pal Cameron Diaz even dropped some bars to celebrate late night talk show hostess Chelsea Handler‘s new studio. Proof below.

Kate Upton
You would never guess that this smokin’ young gunner is only 20 years old. Her sexy “Cat Daddy” dance has become a viral hit (so much so that YouTube had to ban it), her pictorials are man’s best friend and her girl-next-door looks have just been splashed in high fashion mag Vogue.
Miley Cyrus
A few snips to the head and the Disney-bred starlet becomes a trending topic among rappers’ timelines (Hi, Tyler the Creator). Not only has she rocked the ‘short hair don’t care’ attitude, the actress still maintains her good girl image in the name of love. The 19-year-old told Ryan Seacrest that she turns down scripts with sex scenes to protect her relationship with fiancee and “Hunger Games” star Liam Hemsworth. She also made a cameo in the Two And A Half Men starring Ashton Kutcher and has a comedy “So Undercover” due December.
Britney Spears
The pop diva may have had a few bumps (bald-headed breakdown, failed marriage to dancer Kevin Federline) in her past but the “Hold It Against Me” singer has bounced back beautifully. As a proud mama, perfume connoiseur and X Factor judge, Brit-Brit isn’t letting her old “oops!” moments get the best of her.
