E! ENTERTAINMENT PRESENTS NEW SPECIAL "ATTACK OF THE CELEBRITY BIKINIS" PREMIERING THURSDAY, AUGUST 29TH AT 10:00 PM ET/PT ON E!

Los Angeles- August 21, 2013- With the end of the summer right around the corner, E! is celebrating the best, the worst, and most of all the least dressed stars in swimwear with the new special "Attack of the Celebrity Bikinis" airing Thursday, August 29th at 10:00 PM ET/PT. This 30 minute special dives into memorable swimwear looks with the help of our panel of designers, fitness pros, and media masterminds to reveal which beach babes top the list and which two piece moments made us cringe. Plus the fearless bikini-clad ladies who made our jaws drop with awe and envy (yes, we're talking about you Kate Upton!)

When the weather is scorching, our favorite celebrity ladies, and even some gents, show off their best and not so best assets under the sun. From Julianne Hough and Nina Dobrev strutting their finest break up bikinis to "The Body" herself, Elle Macpherson to other fabulous over-40 females, this new special shares photos and exclusive footage of your favorite scantily clad stars. And while we all love the fashion these celebs are rocking, it's not always what they are wearing that catches our eyes. This special takes a look at those memorable bikini moments seen around the world including Miley's ring-less tanning session along with how Heidi Klum went from supermodel to superhero in the water. Plus, check out how mamas to be embraced their bare baby bumps in barely there swimwear while tanning for two.

And while it's hot near the beaches, that doesn't mean the ladies always sizzle. "Attack of the Celebrity Bikinis" uncovers those looks that should have definitely stayed under wraps including a scandalous teen mom, the infamous tan mom, and of course, Honey Boo Boo's mom. And what's a swimsuit special without those outrageous wardrobe malfunction moments? E!'s brand new special shares the top two piece mishaps when our favorite stars accidentally let it all hang out.

All of this and more on the brand new E! Entertainment Special "Attack of the Celebrity Bikinis" airing Thursday, August 29th at 10:00 PM ET/PT on E!
