Best underwear videos ever
Panties to fame: Julianne Hough's naked publicity grab

Marky Mark: bad boy to the core.
Vanessa Williams sings "Save the Best for Last"
Julianne Hough, aspiring country music singer and beard ... er girlfriend ... to Ryan Seacrest, attempted to spark controversy at a show in Baltimore by suggesting that her video for the song "Is That So Wrong," in which she appears clad in panties, is "kinda banned."
She declared to her audience, "This next song — funny story. I shot a music video for it, and Country Music Television banned it. Apparently, I was taking off too many clothes as I was dancing across my bedroom."
Sorry, Hough, but it's actually a contract issue. CMT and parent company MTV are still in talks with Hough's label's video distributor, VEVO, and until that gets settled, the clip won't appear on air.
"We world premiered the video back in July," a CMT rep told OnTheRedCarpet.com. "We took it down shortly thereafter due to ongoing contract negotiations with Julianne's label, Universal Music Group."
The 22-year-old Dancing With The Stars publicity stunter will have to find a few more tricks if she wants to sell records.
No wonder the ban rumor was no more than a censorship scare — just think of the thousands of risque music videos that have made it past television authorities throughout the years. Here, CultureMap counts down the top five skin-bearing, underwear-strutting music clips:
5. At the height of his Calvin Klein boxer briefs modeling career, Marky Mark invited fans to feel "good vibrations" while he undresses various hos and jiggles his pecs in an abandoned parking garage:
4. In the video for "Save The Best For Last," Vanessa Williams has no qualms switching from a fur winter coat, to a gilded turtleneck, and finally, a naked state. Way to save the best for last, V:
3. Céline Dion makes lace lingerie happen in the video for "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" (a thinly-veiled reference to orgasm after-shocks). A silken bathrobe slowly slinks off as she wanders around a chateau somewhere in Quebec before being whisked off by a Peugeot motorcycle:
2. In the vid for "Touch My Body," a MILF-y Mariah breaks out the black lace for her nerdy computer repair boy, taunting, "Throw me on the bed."
1. Super soakers are no match for Sisqo's silver hair and command that beach babes reveal their thongs . . . which really isn't a lot to ask for on a beach. Sisqo gets what he wants, even when the set becomes a glow-in-the-dark free-for-all:
