Remember yesterday when I was like, “Oh everything is beautiful up in here, it’s so great, let’s party?” Well, all that has changed today and there is not a dry piece of clothing on me. I know a lot of you are probably spending most of your time going over and re-going-over the AfterEllen.com Hot 100, but why not look at the pretty pictures with a nice soundtrack? Perhaps something from a few of these lovely ladies below.
