* Serena van der Woodsen on ''GossipGirl''. In season one she was fairly clothed, but since then she is usually showing lots of leg and ''always'' showing lots of breast. In fact, fans tend to refer to her breasts as separate characters by this point. Sometimes the show takes this to ridiculous levels, like in the season three episode "The Debarted" where she walks around in a house with no heater, whining about how cold it is, while wearing tights and a short dress with cleveage that goes down to her belly button. To quote Chuck Bass, real classy S.

Removed wallbanger.


*** Their explanation for her sexy costume when everyone else was in practical uniforms was an especial WallBanger: apparently it's a Vulcan uniform, except that no other Vulcans anywhere in any series have ''ever'' dressed like that. Most of those we see not wearing uniforms wear robes, not slinky catsuits, and it's a pretty big stretch to assume their science vessels would have uniforms so impractical as the things T'Pol wore.

** Also food-related, TopChef hostess Padma Lakshmi fills this role, especially in her early seasons. Many fans expressed surprise about her tendency toward low necklines, bare midriffs, and shorts in a kitchen environment. Given that much of the viewership is female or gay, this was not as popular as one might expect, and she is now typically seen in elegant dresses.

* Weirdly misaimed with the current DNA tech on ''{{CSI}}'', Wendy Simms, who is constantly called "buxom" and a big deal is made about her chest in the comedic episode "You Kill Me". This even though, her actress, Liz Vassey, ''doesn't'' have especially large breasts and doesn't measure up to the hype coming from other characters' mouths (YourMilageMayVary). Notable in that episode is that Sheeri Rappaport, playing fingerprint tech Mandy Webster, is wearing a v-neck top that quite clearly shows that she should be the one with the label, but no one comments on it. Probably because she was [[HollywoodHomely wearing glasses]].
