Nicole Scherzinger and Alessandra Ambrosio inject a touch of glamour to the Ice Bucket Challenge as they're pelted with water in tiny bikinis
Whatever you're wearing when you choose to accept an Ice Bucket Challenge in, it's bound to be impractical.
But Nicole Scherzinger and Alessandra Ambrossio proved that bikini tops were the way to go, when your abs looked as good as theirs on camera.
The scantily-clad babes became the latest a-listers to take the ice cold soaking for charity, though it seemed like a rather good excuse to show off too, when they posted their Instagram videos on Wednesday.

Ab-tastic: Alessandra Ambrosio was covered in water while sporting some Victoria's Secret sportswear
Having spent the last two weeks sunning herself in Hawaii with her fiancé Jamie Mazur and children Anja, five, and Noah, two, a tiny two-piece was an obvious choice for the mum of two.
The stunning Victoria's Secret model is no stranger to posing in her smalls, having modelled for the brand for ten years, but made her neoprene bra top looked pretty impressive, even when soaked in freezing cold water.
Taking the challenge, which raises awareness for Lou Gehrig’s disease, Alessandra was watched by a full crowd in Collumbus as she modelled Victoria's Secret sportswear, getting a soaking from Victoria's Secret Beach Angel coolers in the street.

Naturally, the 33-year-old model nominated fellow members of the VS family to take the challenge next, no doubt pre-empting yet more bikini-clad challenges.
She said: 'Matheus [Mazzafera] I am accepting your ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and I'm challenging Adriana [Lima], Doutzen [Kroes] and Karlie [Kloss]. Argh.'
Flashing her toned abs for the camera, Nicole also accepted her challenge with her flawless body on full display.
Nicole chose a tropical swimsuit and shorts for her moment in the spotlight having spent the day on the beach.

Looking a little tentative about accepting her challenge, she told the camera: 'Thank you Becky Lockett, I accept the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. And I'd like to nominate The Dream and Tricky Stewart and Kiesza. Let's do this.'
The charity craze went viral when a-listers from Justin Bieber to Oprah soaked themselves with freezing cold water for the cause and their videos generated a chain of similar attempts by each featuring a nomination to someone else to do the same.

And on Tuesday, Emily Blunt took part in the challenge, but didn't realise she'd accepted until her cheeky husband John Krasinski tripped water over her head as she held their groceries.
Other rule breakers include Comedian Amy Schumer who dumped clam chowder over her head and Justin Bieber who didn't appear to have any ice cubes in his bucket.
