Miley Cyrus – Wrecking Ball
There’s no better way to reinvent yourself from perfect Disney princess to rebel with one hell of a cause, than to get naked (except for some hob nail boots of course) and swing around on a demolition ball, lick a hammer and shave off most of your hair. Here’s the sweet and innocent Miley Cyrus’ transformative music video Wrecking Ball which does not leave much to the imagination, except why on earth she chose those awful white knickers when she finally did put some clothing on?!

Robin Thicke – Blurred Lines
Robin Thicke also needed some reinvention and he found it when Blurred Lines topped the charts and became a humungous success all over the world in 2013. He had a little help from his friends, Pharell and T.I., when he launched himself back out of obscurity and made a bomb with this track. The music video of course had its own little part to play in all this…you may not know this but the video that most of the public saw over and over and over again last year was not the only one to be released. The other video was the one that got all the boys talking. So, clever old Thicke hooked the ladies with his dulcet tones, slick suit and shades and lured in the guys with his unrated video of all the models stripped down to their birthday suits (bar a teeny tiny something you could call underwear and some platform trainers), bouncing around cutely between the three singers. Take a look at the previously, temporarily banned adult version of the Blurred Lines music video.

Lady Gaga – Applause
Lady Gaga is no stranger to getting her kit off, we had plenty of footage to choose from with this young strip fanatic. Lady Gaga, née Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, is a woman on a mission. She wanted to hit the big time and she went for it, getting naked is not exactly high on the list of shocking moments in her thus far illustrious career and she certainly is not reticent to baring all. Forget the dress made of meat, forget the McQueen ensembles, forget the masks and ever-changing hair styles (although she manages to squeeze in all of the above anyway) and take a look at Gaga unveiled in Applause. (OK she might not be strictly naked but can you count a bit of string and a couple of shells?=

Britney Spears – Womanizer
Britney Spears may have had her troubles in the past, and may well again in the future but when it comes to buffing up her body and getting back out there she is a master. The video for Womanizer is a no-holds-barred depiction of a raunchy Britney in her entirety. She gets naked, sweaty, fries an egg in a sexy robe, gives a saucy secretary rendition, a red-headed waiter/waitress (?) and a sexy chauffer-ess who can drive using her 6’ heels in this tongue in cheek (sometimes) performance. The plot is to expose the guy she is seeing who has managed to womanize all of these different versions of her, but Britney wins in the end as she makes her bed without him in it.
Katy Perry – California Gurls ft. Snoop Dogg
Katy Perry is yet another chameleon when it comes to her appearance, although a lot less Art Pop and more candy pop than Gaga she has had her fair share of costume and hair changes in her career. With a more Alice in Wonderland meets the Care Bears feel to it; California Gurls features Snoop Dogg and also a butt naked Katy Perry laying on a pink fluffy cloud in this sickly sweet video about the girls from the West Coast.
Blink-182 – What’s My Age Again
Blink-182 do the naked thing properly in this video, they are stripped bare running through the streets, playing their instruments, playing basketball, and even the odd cartwheel whilst distracting the general public with….their nakedness! Check out the video to What’s My Age Again for some full on Blink-182 which will really make you blink.

D’Angelo – Untitled (How Does It Feel)
In keeping with the male theme for a moment, a treat for the ladies is upon us. D’angelo’s Untitled (How Does it Feel) video is basically a close up head shot of the rather stunning (and naked of course) man with a simple black backdrop. The camera pans out to reveal more unveiling the top of his hips (strangely similar to a Ken doll) and then back to a facial close up, then some trickly sweaty ab close ups and an odd nipple grab, a slow spin around to show off the back, a few more pan in and outs, some more warbling and that`s all there is to it in this up close and personal eye candy video; you even get a zoom in on his molars.
Alanis Morissette – Thank U
This one deserves a mention just because it is Alanis Morissette for one thing and also because she is naked for the duration. This is not a ploy for attention or a desperate reach out for viewers, this is an artistic video, it is not crass nor does it appeal to the masses for admiration. The song is about admitting your faults, your flaws, thanking the world for the emotions we experience in a positive way and letting it all out; the video depicts the same thing in the physical sense. It is simple, it touches on the greater sides of humanity and it is, despite Alanis’ fairly odd, quirky delivery, quite beautiful. And it’s a good song – Thank You!

Sigur Rós – Fjögur Píanó
Sigur Rós features a very different Shia Le Boeuf in Fjögur Píanó, an incredible arthouse video depicting two lovers and their journey through a day in their life via dance and a bit of hallucination. The film starts with the pair discovering their post-coital cuts and bruises and performing a very sensual ballet rendition of their sexual acts. This is quite beautifully choreographed, and many scenes show full nudity. Shia is definitely not shy when it comes to revealing all, yes all. They then go on a seemingly drug induced trip whilst licking some hallucinogenic lollipops, which is all slightly surreal and odd but very entertaining. They then have a huge fight and wake up the following morning in much the same situation; Groundhog Day?

Robbie Williams – Rock DJ
Robbie Williams’ Rock DJ has to get a mention when it comes to naked videos, because, well he bares more than just his body in this depiction of how to get attention. Assuming this is a reflection of life under the spotlight and how you literally have to bare it all to get ahead in show business, sell your soul if you have to. This gets a rather incredible almost horrific spin as he strips off his clothes initially to raise some interest – when this fails he starts to give more and more of himself to the crowd as he peels of his flesh and launches it at them. The girls go mad for literal pieces of Robbie…warning, this is pretty gruesome.
Gotye – Someone That I Used To Know ft. Kimba
And who could forget the one hit classic; Gotye’s Somebody That I Used to Know feat. Kimba. The video depicts Gotye’s naked body being gradually painted from head to toe with abstract shapes as he eventually blends in with the background, and then an also painted, also naked Kimba pops in for her de-painting and verse of the catchy tune that had us all singing along in 2011.
