VIBE has paired up “six of the hottest NFL Players with five of R&B’s sexiest female artists”. In theory, this is a great idea. The worlds of sports and music often cross paths… and so do beautiful women and handsome athletes. But I have to say that the execution for this photoshoot was quite lacking. First, the shoot seems to have taken place at football mecca Stony Brook University. Second, the styling of the shoot is just dudes in workout/football gear with women in crazy heels/boots. LeToya Luckett, Adrienne Bailon, and Teairra Mari may all be wearing the same thigh-high boots. The guys almost seem like props… or that they should be photoshopped out. The shoot is seriously lacking in the sexy department. No wonder VIBE went out of business. Also, Will Demps isn’t even on a football team now. He’s going to have to turn part-time modeling into his full-time job. We’ve got six pictures from the shoot after the jump.

Here’s VIBE magazine’s last fashion spread in their last issue ever. VIBE decided to pair up “six of the hottest NFL Players with five of R&B’s sexiest female artists”:
Will Demps and LeToya Luckett are paired up again. The “Torn” vid was their first go-round and now they’ve shot a fashion spread together.
Chrisette Michele was paired up with Selita Ebanks‘ ex Osi Umenyiora of the NY Giants.
And up and coming R&B chick Melanie Fiona was paired up with Gabby Union’s ex Darren Sharper of the N.O. Saints.
Adrienne Bailon’s a lucky girl. She was paired up with NY Jets baller Kerry Rhodes and Redskins baller Devin Thomas.
Speaking of cutie baller Devin, he showed off his tatts–his back reads “Love Live Life”.
And Teairra Mari was paired up with Colts baller Dwight Freeney.
