We've spent a lot of time this Coachella talking about the magnificent bros in attendance, but how about the fair and talented ladies? Per usual, they were everywhere, doing their thing like it wasn't a chicken wing, or something. In any case, here are the hottest dancing girls this year -- in GIF form.

It was a lot of sequins and gyrating last night as pop-star, media provocateur and good girl gone bad Rihanna hit the Staples Center as part of her Diamonds World Tour. RiRi was all hair, lips and hips as she brought an unabashedly sexual swagger. Although a lot of critics have criticized her live performance, and her public image is built on a wild child premise, ultimately, she is a pop star of the highest caliber, able to embrace her touch-of-crazy persona while delivering a tight, high-level stadium filling performance.

What has been Lisa Loeb's best look throughout the years? Ha, j/k, because Lisa Loeb has only had one look throughout the years. Fortunately for the surviving members of Generation X (the ones who didn't slack themselves into oblivion) it's a winner: The cute quirky, thirtysomething girl with glasses look. It worked great when she was in her mid-20s, worked appropriately great in her mid-30s, and now continues to work gangbusters in her mid-40s . 
We can definitely narrow this one down to the '90s, '00s, or '10s
So in honor of her just-released album No Fairy Tale, play our fun game below and guess which year the publicity shot comes from! (Answers at the bottom.)

Hollywood party promoter, costume designer and fetish model Perish Dignam seems always to be surrounded by beautiful go-go dancers scantily clad in raver costumes. He throws dubstep parties under the auspices of his company, Swoon, with themes like "Pink & Wet," "Pirates & Ninjas" and "Klown-o-ween," staged at venues including Dim Mak and Vanguard.
Hundreds of cosplay fans come out for the music, the costumes and the delights of Dignam himself, who carries a compelling mystique. Obsessed with fetishes, he calls himself an "ultrasexual," as opposed to straight, gay or bi. "I [see] being sexually attracted to something as not a gender thing. It's a fetish thing."
He adds: "A fetish doesn't need to be sexual. It's something that people can ... fantasize about, whether that's a mystical world or a costume."

Back in July, I met Slash for the first time ever. Sure, it's daunting and all to meet the guy whose MTV video solos you imitated on your coffee table with a broom. 
It has come to this
But then he was all, "I think we've met before."
Uh, no. We had not. I think I would have remembered.
Then it hits. He thinks I'm some other bald bearded dude he's met before, someone approximately my age. Our beloved Slash, master shredder of strings, legend of rock is a fucking baldist.

[Note: I thought I had a pretty hot scoop when I snagged a copy of Kanye West's notorious sex tape, which remains unseen by most of the public. Unfortunately, my editor didn't think a review of an ill-gotten celebrity porn clip was appropriate for a reputable family blog like West Coast Sound. After some argument, we reached a compromise: I could only review the Kanye sex tape if I also wrote a capsule review of G.O.O.D. Music's Cruel Summer. And he wasn't going to pay me twice, so . . .]
This fall, after dribbling out a series of tantalizing leaks, Kanye has finally let loose a full-on gush of material on his sex tape Cruel Summer. Although it's largely a collaborative work, the sex tape Cruel Summer is unmistakably drenched in Ye's DNA.

Tonight rapper French Montana is hosting a party at a strip club, L.A.'s King of Diamonds Sin City. More specifically, it's a "'Pop That' Event," during which dancers will compete by twerking to Montana's wildly catchy summer anthem "Pop That," which samples Luke Campbell's "I Wanna Rock" and features Drake, Lil Wayne and Rick Ross. We can't wait to hear it 42 times in a row, and we are not being sarcastic.
How does one twerk? By exuberantly shaking one's rear end. Here's an example. We're pretty sure the Olympics are considering adding it as an official event.
We called up French Montana to find out what he'll be looking for tonight. Take notes.

Here at West Coast Sound we love it when musicians would rather be naked than wear fur. (Particularly when it's Waka Flocka Flame.)
Indeed our sympathies quite often lie with activists who are poorly-clothed. So even though Under the Radar magazine isn't exactly our bag -- they seem interested mostly in the types of acts who made this list -- we read with interest their August "Protest Issue," which just hit newsstands.
Brooke Candy's given name is Brooke Candy, and she was born on 4/20. (Trust that we used our journalistic skills to verify this information.) Her father worked behind the scenes for Hustler when she was growing up in Oxnard. If her parents are surprised that she's become a stripper and rapper who smokes a lot of weed, well, they shouldn't be. 
When she opens the door of her stylist's Echo Park apartment, she's wearing a baggy sweatshirt with marijuana leaves on it, and her hair is wrapped in a doo-rag printed with dollar bills. No makeup. It's a contrast to her look in her video for "Theme Music" -- her infectious song with Detroit rapper Count Mack (below) -- in which she sports glossy magenta lips and neon green shoestrings woven through her braids, strutting in a fur coat through a car wash.
Currently dominating charts, Flo Rida's "Whistle" recycles the wholesome Disney chorus "whistle while you work" as a blowjob instructional. Like many before him, Flo Rida enjoys receiving oral sex, and like almost as many, he has turned the practice into a popular song. Over the years, tracks discussing the "beej" have been performed in every era of pop. Chuck Berry was singing about his dick all the way back in 1972, and, while it's only gotten more misogynist from there, there's no denying that bjs are a huge and, dare we say, important part of popular music history. And so without further ado behold our brief, incomplete history of blowjobs in music.
