"Hot Girls in Love" is a song recorded by the pop rock band Loverboy. It appeared on the band's third album Keep it Up, in 1983. The song peaked in June 1983 at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and at #2 on the Mainstream Rock chart.

Covers

"Hot Girls in Love" was covered by the short-lived European glam rock band, The Cherry Bombz, and was the title track to their 1985 mini-LP (although that record was originally entitled The Cherry Bombz). The Cherry Bombz version is quite faithful to the original, but female vocals by Anita Chellemah (formerly of British New Wave act Toto Coelo, who did "I Eat Cannibals") and the high-energy guitar of Andy McCoy (formerly of Finnish glam band Hanoi Rocks) set it apart somewhat.

In the 1980s, the instrumental from Loverboy's version was used as the theme song to the National Wrestling Alliance television program Championship Wrestling from Georgia on WTBS.
