Every year, Maxim releases their Hot 100 list of the world’s most beautiful women. This year, topping the list over the likes of Kim Kardashian, Megan Fox, Rihanna, and others, was none other than pop act, Katy Perry.
Why? The mag’s editor says it’s Perry’s “supernova moment.”
“It’s that feeling you get when you suddenly realize that the smartest, funniest, coolest girl you know also happens to the best looking and a pretty good skateboarder too,” Maxim editor-in-chief, Joe Levy, told ABC News. “All of a sudden, your crush goes supernova, and this is Katy’s supernova moment.”
Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Issue cover girl (and tennis star Andy Roddick’s wife) Brooklyn Decker came in a close second to Katy, with big screen beauty Zoe Saldana placing third – a sizeable jump from her #29 ranking last year.
“To be perfectly honest, ‘Avatar’ is awesome – but she’s Uhura,” Levy added, referencing her “Star Trek” character. “Let’s not forget – we’re nerds. So you know, sexy ‘Star Trek’? Need I say more?”
“Gossip Girl” Blake Lively finished fourth, with Megan Fox fifth and Rihanna, Elisabetta Canalis, Olivia Munn, Kim Kardashian and Marisa Miller rounding out the top 10, respectively.
Other notable names on this year’s list include Scarlett Johansson (14), last year’s top choice Olivia Wilde (20), “Twilight Saga” beauty Ashley Greene (29), country cutie Taylor Swift (31), Angelina Jolie (38), “Modern Family” stunner Sofia Vergara (47), Britney Spears (54), ESPN and “Dancing” bombshell Erin Andrews (58) and Chelsea Handler (87).
