There's no better excuse than summer to have a 64-babe, single-elimination bikini bracket. We'll be rolling out the matchups for the entire month of July. Voting on Elite 8 contests will remain open until Wednesday, July 27 at 10 p.m. ET.

And the contest rolls on to the Elite 8. Excluding 12-seed Eva Mendes' victory over 1-seed Halle Berry and 8-seed Lauren Conrad, who vanquished 4-seed Kim Kardashian, all the higher seeds took care of business. Only one of the contests (4-seed Shakira against 8-seed Jessica Simpson) was even within single digits. (Full results below.) That's how some rounds go.

We don't expect a series of drubbings in the Elite 8, but that's for you to decide. On with the next round of the Smackdown below, starting with...
