<b>Miley Cyrus<br></b><br> Grinding on a stripper pole at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards was just the beginning of Miley Cyrus shedding her "Hannah Montana" good girl image. And looking at her now, we'd give anything to get this 17-year-old Miley back, pole and all. (AP)
<b>Jennifer Aniston</b> This Hollywood golden girl has a squeaky clean image, but she wasn't afraid to get down and dirty as a stripper in the 2013 comedy "We're the Millers." She took to the pole on several occasions throughout the film, and we have to say, she rocked it. (Reuters)

<b>Channing Tatum</b> This Hollywood hunk was an exotic dancer before he became a star, and his seductive moves kept 2012 male strip club-based stinker "Magic Mike" afloat. He wasn't too shy to mock his past on a 2012 episode of "Saturday Night Live," either, licking a stripper pole and getting down on stage. (Reuters)
