Two of the best things in life aren’t usually associated. One of those things is Christmas season, the other cheerleaders. This year, in honor of both their glory, we have combined them for you in this eye-popping holiday gallery for you to enjoy. This is one of those days that makes me really love my job.

Sexy Russian tennis star Maria Sharapova has been named Russia’s richest sports celebrity for 2009 and the only woman in the top ten according to Finans magazine.

Sharapova income this year was $24 million, down $1.5 million from last year. The leggy, blonde, tennis superstar only made $900,000 from tennis this year but has found the magic formula in world-wide endorsements contracts.

There is a word and a phrase that don’t often go together. And yes, you may have guessed it: “busty” and “female athlete.” And who can blame ‘em?  It’s just not easy to be a great female athlete and carry all that weight around up top.

Which is why we have to appreciate those women who have what we disgusting men think about 1000 times a day: a woman’s upper torso region just below the face.  So while these woman are busting ass in their respected sport, they’re also looking quite sexy off the field.

Here are some of the bustiest female athletes.

I tried picking women who looked like a C or above.

Gina Carano -MMA

I would so let her beat the crap out of me.

Natalie Gulbis – Golf

I wish she would stretch all the time.

Serena Williams – Tennis

I’m sorry guys.  I know she’s not incredibly attractive but this picture is by no means bad.  She’s got some talent up there.

Anna Semenovich – Figure Skating

By far the best one on this list.  They really know how to do sports in Russia.

Latasha Marzolla – MMA

I most certainly wouldn’t mind getting in the ring with those bad boys.

Jelena Dokic – Tennis

It sucks because she’s always wearing a sports bra but you know there’s some talent under there.

Anni Friesinger – Speed Skating

The bouncing must be awesome while she’s gliding along the ice.

Katarina Witt – Figure Skating

Her breasts will live on forever.

BONUS TRACKS!

Alicia Sacramone – Gymnastics

For a girl who is barely 5 feet tall she’s got some stuff up there.

And……

Ana Paula Mancino – Volleyball

Honestly I don’t care if she has big breasts.  The others were good enough.  This is just the hottest athlete. For sure!! Long live Ana..

Cristiano Ronaldo doesn’t need presentation. Everyone knows who is Cristiano Ronaldo. He is star in Real Madrid. Beyond his football skills, his life is very important for the magazines because he is a role model for the youth and considered very attractive for the women. The Real Madrid football player, which is considered the best in the world, has had several girlfriends. They are usually famous or searching it.

Who are they?

Bipasha Basu is a bollywood actress. A celebrity in India. She dated Ronaldo after the “New Seven World Wonders” in Lisbon.

Mirella Grisales is colombian and is an actress too. She said that Ronaldo is as good player in bed as he is on the football field.

Carsguide will be giving away a copy of the world’s most exclusive calendar, which is not for sale and is sent in a very limited edition of 10,000 to a secret mailing list of corporate stars.

Catwalk and magazine superstars Miranda Kerr, Catherine McNeil and Abby Lee Kershaw – all from Down Under — are among the eleven models in this year’s calendar.

The others are Eniko Mihalik from Hungary, Marloes Horst of the Netherlands, Lily Cole, Daisy Lowe, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley from the UK, Georgina Stojilijkovic of Serbia and two Brazilians, Gracie Carvalho and Ana Beatriz Barros.

The images for the 37th edition of the calendar were shot on location in Brazil earlier this year by Terry Richardson, the outrageous American fashion photographer whose images are often sexually provocative and can border on the graphic.

The images for the 37th edition of the calendar were shot on location in Brazil earlier this year by Terry Richardson, the outrageous American fashion photographer whose images are often sexually provocative and can border on the graphic.

However the calendar in its finished version is probably more startling for its contrast to previous years than anything else.

Following on from the lush and exotic Botswana landscape and fauna in which Peter Beard set the models for last year’s calendar – and the opulent chinoiserie costumes and backdrops used by Patrick Demarchelier in 2008 – Richardson’s shots are starkly simple.

He’s returned to the classic Pop Art era pin-up calendar style, with little in the way of backdrops, props, make-up – or costume, for that matter.

“A great photographer,” says Richardson, “captures the moment – that’s why I shoot without extra equipment and without assistants.

“My technique is the absence of technique: the lens is my eye, my charisma, my ability to capture moments of truth, whatever they may be, picture angles, use of color, light, scenery – these have always been the essential aspects of my photographic art”.
