No Sex Tapes, No Drugs: Just the World's Hottest Women

The good people at AskMen.com just published their Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2008, and let me tell you this, it's yet another sizzling installment of beauty ans sheer sex appeal, not to mention talent and brains. Quite a treat, huh? Well, in case you're not familiar with this annual tribute paid to all things hot, here's how the creators of the top present the results of their latest endeavors into pure feminine beauty. "The top is is an annual list ranking the famous females deemed to be the year's most alluring. In casting their votes, readers are asked to look beyond sex appeal and beauty to pick women who have the characteristics they value in a potential companion, like intelligence, humor, charisma, and ambition". Amen to that. Well, here are their top five picks, with a few comments on the side – and feel free to let us know how you feel about who ranked where. Enjoy!



1.Katherine Heigl

What they say

"A former model, Katherine Heigl is beautiful, well-spoken, humorous, talented... the list goes on. No one belongs at the top of 2008's Top 99 more than Katherine Heigl".

What we say

Katherine sure is hot, and yes, she's had a great year, by far the best of her career. However, if we look back at the ladies she beat to make it to number one, I must say that both Eva Mendes and Alessandra Ambosio are – in my humble opinion – way hotter than she is. Plus, Katherine is what you'd call a bit of a whiner – who even ended up criticizing her own critic-acclaimed movie "Knocked Up" for being sexist. She's hot, but maybe just a tiny little bit narrow minded – or maybe she's simply taking her time adjusting to making the passage to Hollywood's A list, where she rightfully belongs.

2.Alessandra Ambrosio

What they say

"Alessandra Ambrosio is as sexy as her name sounds (if not sexier). One of the most beautiful jewels to hail from exotic Brazil, Alessandra has appeared in dozens of fashion campaigns [...]".

What we say

I definitely would have voted Alessandra number 1. Not only is she one of the world's top models, but she's also a National Ambassador for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, and as close to heaven sent as I ever saw – and I think I can find no better argument except this.




3.Kate Beckinsale

What they say

"She's from England, so everything that comes out of her luscious mouth is sexy. And she's more than just a pretty face: Kate is Oxford-educated. We know you love this British beauty".

What we say

Amen to that. Kate is one of the true ladies out there. You haven't seen her name in the tabloids, have you? There's no sex tape of her out, no video of her taking drugs, no news of any bipolar disorder that's making her run naked in the streets in the wee hours of the morning. Sexy and sophisticated – maybe Kate will be number one next year. Fingers crossed.



4.Eva Mendes

What they say

"With style, grace and, best of all, tremendous sex appeal, Eva Mendes has become a respected actress, and her stock is on the rise. We'd go toe-to-toe with Castro himself in order to win the hand of this sexy Hollywood heart breaker".

What we say

Boy, is Eva hot! And yes, her PETA adds have been a blessing for many of us out here, no doubt about it. She's sexy and intelligent – so yes, she's a logical choice for the top five most alluring women of 2008. I think that she could even have given Alessandra a run for her money.



5.Jessica Alba

What they say

"Who doesn’t love a beautiful woman with a great sense of humor? Jessica Alba showed us her funny side in Good Luck Chuck, and her gorgeous side everywhere else she appeared".

What we say

That sure is true, and yes, Jessica is a gorgeous lady, but I think that she looses a lot of points in the "attitude" department. I mean, it's natural to want your privacy, and it's natural to defend it – but from here to hypocrisy, it's just a short leap. Jessica still needs to come to terms with her star status, and understand that once you started playing the fame game, there are certain rules you must follow. And from hypocrisy to ingratitude, the road is even shorter. Just a friendly warning. That being said, Jessica sure is hot, and her number five position is well earned.
