Vanessa Simmons #15 - The 50 Hottest Reality TV Girls - January 2010
Entry from the Complex Magazine website: "Rev Run may not have been able to give birth to another talented MC (unless you count Diggy! Sorry, JoJo), but he sure did make some gorgeous daughters. The most beautiful of all being the older, bustier, budding actress (lolz) Vanessa. After leaving the nest, this bird flew to Cali with her sister and friends to try and make it on her own with MTV cameras in tow. Unfortunately, they all had to learn the hard way: being rich doesn't make you interesting."http://best.complex.com/lists/The-50-Hottest-Reality-TV-Girls/vanessa-simmons
