"Hot Girls in Love" is a song recorded by the rock band Loverboy. It appeared on their third album, Keep it Up, in 1983. When released as a single later that year, it reached number eleven on the Billboard Hot 100[1] and number two on the Top Rock Tracks chart.

"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 1980's, the instrumental from Loverboy's version was used as the theme song to National Wrestling Alliance television programming on WTBS.
