This American actress is one of the world’s hottest women and a sex symbol. It is her stunning looks and girl-next-door image that has made her so appealing. In fact, she was named as ‘the sexiest woman in the world’ by the FHM poll in 2008. She started off her acting career way back in 2001. After doing minor television and film roles initially, she starred in ‘Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen’. Megan Fox became famous due to her role in ‘Transformers’. Another notable role played by the actress is April O’Neil in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Scar-Jo recently made her debut as the Black Widow, and she’s a real-life superhero too. She’s public about her support for multiple charities that fight poverty and promote cancer research. Her films have grossed her over $14.3 billion worldwide, making her the ninth highest-grossing star of all time. And we get it – if Scarlett Johansson is in it, we’ll be there. Her recent marriage to funny-man Colin Jost had us all mourning, as if we had a chance, anyway. One of the richest women is also one of the hottest, and that’s proof that the universe does indeed play favorites.

3. Gal Gadot

Gal Gadot is Wonder Woman and is one of the most beautiful female celebrities in the world. In addition to revolutionizing the role of Diana Prince in Wonder Woman, Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Justice League, she also served in the Israeli Defense Forces, studied law and international relations, and placed number three on the Forbes list of world’s highest-paid actresses in 2020. She recently signed with Netflix for the film Red Notice.

4. Charlize Theron

Beauty doesn’t have an age limit, and 46-year-old Charlize Theron proves it. She’s one of the world’s highest paid actresses, recipient of multiple awards, including an Academy Award and Golden Globe, and she’s drop-dead gorgeous to boot. Her performance in Monster won her the coveted Best Actress Award, though her breakout role was in the horror flick, The Devil’s Advocate. Theron has been gracing our screens for over 20 years, and we hope she never stops.

5. Bella Hadid

While the elder Hadid goes for the all-American girl-next-door, Bella is happier to play the black sheep in a series of the hottest topless shoots, risqué outfits, and a barely-there Victoria’s Secret appearance. There’s a science to back this pick, too. According to a renowned cosmetic surgeon, Bella has the most symmetrical face in the world, making her the most beautiful woman alive.

Her high-profile helped Bella’s star rise even more when we were all left wondering which songs on his recent album were about her. The lucky guy has dated another woman on this list (Selena Gomez), and that’s why we’re not giving up on our rap career just yet.

6. Kendall Jenner

There are hot women, and then there are the Kardashian-Jenners. The Kardashians are the Hollywood equivalent of an indulgent, definitely-not-good-for-you meal — you know you shouldn’t, but resistance is futile. One of the younger flagbearers – Kendall – is proving to be far less divisive than the TV show that propelled her family to fame. Which is a real cultural anomaly, considering her CV. First, there was that ill-advised Pepsi ad for this model. Then those Notorious BIG ‘vintage’ t-shirts that transposed her own face alongside one of hip hop’s most revered figures – despite the fact they’d never even met. And we still forgive her, every single time. Can’t imagine why.

7. Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian haters can back off. Not only did she reclaim excessive use of the letter K back from hood-wearing rednecks, but she’s also made a mint by identifying what the people want: her. Through Instagram, television, and magazine covers, the most famous Kardashian has built a $1.2 billion brand by just being her. She has not one business, but several, ranging from makeup to shapewear, and throws some of the most lavish parties in Hollywood, on top of being a mother of four, thanks to rap legend, Kanye West. Detractors may feel entitled to their criticism, but it won’t put them on the same pay grade… or make her any less sexy.

8. Adriana Lima

Adriana Lima is one of those timeless beauties that just get better with age. Since walking runway for Victoria’s Secret for the first time in 1999, she has been featured in countless magazines as well as fashion and beauty campaigns.

9. Blake Lively

Gossip Girl was the mid-noughties’ biggest guilty pleasure, labeled as one of the most shocking teen dramas of its time. It wasn’t. Blake Likely, however, was one of the best things about it. She’s graduated from piss-poor scripts about Upper East Side brats and is taking on decidedly more adult roles – while also being a wife and full-time parent alongside Ryan Reynolds. She’s still one of the hottest women in Hollywood and beyond, with beauty that transcends age and time. The Age Of Adaline star gets our XOXO.

10. Selena Gomez

The queen of Bajan pop and IDGAF Instagram comments has spawned 14 number ones on the Billboard Hot 100, eight albums in almost as many years, and collected over 141 international music awards. But she didn’t stop there. The majority of her $1.7 billion net worth comes from her multiple businesses – Fenty Beauty, Fenty Skin, and Savage x Fenty, her fire lingerie brand. You can’t blame people for dancing, or for fawning over her to the point of obsession, as Rhianna remains one of the hottest women in the business (okay, businesses), year after year.
