Jessica Alba has been named the world’s sexiest woman, topping FHM’s annual “100 Sexiest Women in the World” list. The Sin City star claimed the number one spot, with FHM editor Chris Bell praising her as “a talented, successful and beautiful actress whose sex appeal resonates worldwide.”
At 25, Alba outshone strong competition from British glamour model Keeley Hazell and Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria, who secured second and third place respectively. Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima ranked fourth, followed by Scarlett Johansson in fifth. Angelina Jolie placed eighth, while 24 actress Elisha Cuthbert completed the top ten.
Last year’s winner, Pirates of the Caribbean star Keira Knightley, slipped to 12th place. Sienna Miller experienced a sharper decline, falling from 12th to 45th. Meanwhile, Kate Middleton, Prince William’s former girlfriend, made a notable rise from 94th to 25th place.
The list, voted on by FHM readers, appears in the magazine’s June issue.
