No.1 Katherine Heigl

Why Is She famous and No.1?

Katherine Heigl has had an outstanding year. Her role on Grey's Anatomy garnered her an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. She also starred in the box-office hit Knocked Up, was interviewed by journalist Barbara Walters as one of her "10 Most Fascinating People of 2007," and married singer Josh Kelley. 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

 

Alessandra Ambrosio

 

No.2 Alessandra Ambrosio
Date of Birth: April 11, 1981
Birth Location: Erechim, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
 

Why Is She Famous?

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, notably for GUESS, and she is an angelic fixture at the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Alessandra Ambrosio is also a National Ambassador for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Is Alessandra Ambrosio heaven-sent? Our readers certainly think so, voting her to No. 2 on 2008's Top 99 list.

 

Kate Beckinsale

 

No.3 Kate Beckinsale

Why She's No.3?

Kate Beckinsale may be the darling of British theater and American art house films, but she has also saved Pearl Harbor, proved that vampires can be sexy in Underworld, wowed Howard Hughes in The Aviator, and scared audiences in Vacancy. 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... that’s why Kate Beckinsale is No. 3.

 Eva Mendes

No.4 Eva Mendes

Why She's No.4?

We have to bump cigars off the top of our list of "Favorite Cuban Exports" and replace them with the vivacious Eva Mendes. She appeared in four '07 flicks, including We Own the Night and Ghost Rider, and she also posed nude for a PETA campaign. 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 heartbreaker.

No.5 Jessica Alba

Why She's No.5?

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. In 2007, she also reprised her role as Susan Storm in Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer, and we look forward to seeing her in The Eye, The Love Guru, and 2009's Sin City 2. Our No. 1 of 2006, Jessica Alba, still ranks high, and we can see why.

No.6 Scarlett Johansson

Why She's No.6?

Scarlett Johansson mixes undeniable acting talent with wit and knockout looks to create a truly atypical appeal. In 2007, she starred in The Nanny Diaries and appeared in ad campaigns for Louis Vuitton. In 2008, look for her on the big screen in Mary Queen of Scots, The Other Boleyn Girl, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, and He's Just Not That Into You. Scarlett Johansson is one of the most uniquely talented and beautiful women in Hollywood and, given her rank, it's clear you love her as much as we do

 

Donna Feldman 

What No. is Donna Feldman Readeers rated  84

Why Is She Famous?

Donna plays Gloria Thompson on Fashion House, a well-touted, 2006 fall drama that also stars Bo Derek and Morgan Fairchild. Prior to landing a role on the program she appeared as one of the luscious models on NBC’s hit game show Deal or No Deal.

No.19 Miranda Kerr

Why She's No.19?

Who wasn't wowed by Miranda Kerr strutting down the catwalk in the 2007 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show? Decked out in gold and Christmas ornaments, we knew readers would go ga-ga over this Australian beauty, which is why she has such a high ranking on our Top 99. And she was thrilled to have made the list. She says, "It really is such a compliment to be listed among so many beautiful women from all around the world in the AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women list. A big thank-you to everyone who voted."
