  VIP post is a post from the select group of VIP blogs, which each pay several hundred dollars a month for special hosting with privileges. CNN has a lot of VIP blogs, for instance. VIP Post is to separate those out from the community blogs, because VIP blogs were always the top blogs and it wasn’t fair.

  Community Post is a post from the regular WordPress.com users.

  Hawt Post is the most popular post on WP.com at any given time, subject to some special filters that Automattic uses so nobody games the system.
