Jessica had the looks to make us believe she was a genetically-enhanced woman in the sci-fi hit Dark Angel, and has the body to make any guy want to go see a chick flick like Honey. Even though she’s been away from the spotlight for a few years, Jessica has always been on our minds.

After big-screen roles in Never Been Kissed and Idle Hands, Jessica Alba became the first “It” girl of the century as the title role in James Cameron’s sci-fi TV series, Dark Angel. Back from a short hiatus, she starred in the hip-hop dance flick Honey in 2003 and the star-studded Sin City in 2005.

Alessandra Ambrosio is as sexy as her name, and not featuring her would be considered a crime to her home country. Now we have two reasons to visit Brazil, including the Carnaval in Rio. Alessandra was in dozens of fashion campaigns, like the latest one for Guess? She also recently appeared in the Cannes Victoria’s Secret webcast.

With her penetrating eyes and innocent face, she is a grown-up Lolita. Her magnetism shines through the camera lens, and leaves men (the mere mortals that we are) in awe. With a face as young as hers, she looks like she just started high school. We can’t wait to see what happens when her beautiful innocent face matures into the seasoned look of a young woman. If she’s irresistible now, what will happen later on down the line ?

By the start of the new millennium, Eva Mendes appeared in several action-packed and fun films worthy of half-price night at the movies. These include A Night at the Roxbury, Exit Wounds and All About the Benjamins. Of late, her resume has become quite impressive, with a steamy performance as Denzel Washington’s woman in Training Day and a turn as Paul Walker’s love interest in 2 Fast 2 Furious.

The beauty mark on Mendes’ left cheek, à la Cindy Crawford, only entices us to peruse her pictures even more. Actually, each inch of her seems worthy of a gold statue, and a woman with only half her beauty would be worthy of our obsession.

Scarlett Johansson mixes undeniable acting talent with wit and wisdom beyond her years to create a truly atypical appeal. We especially admire her well-deserved self-confidence and the wide range of challenging roles, which, as a result, she has successfully taken on.

After her role in Robert Redford’s The Horse Whisperer (1998), the teenaged Scarlett landed one plum part after another in movies like Ghost World (2000), The Man Who Wasn’t There (2001), Lost in Translation (2003), Girl with a Pearl Earring (2003), and The Perfect Score (2004).

Monica Bellucci is all woman. She’s insanely gorgeous, intelligent, cultured, talented, and can bring any man to his knees with one glance. It takes a lot to be named AskMen.com’s Most Desirable Woman in the World, but Monica’s got it all in spades.

After roles in a list of Italian and French films, most notably Malena (2000) and Irreversible (2002), Monica Bellucci struck gold as Persephone in The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions.

After her stint as a child star on Who’s the Boss?, Alyssa proved that she wasn’t a kid anymore with risqué roles in movies like Poison Ivy II (1996). She starred in the TV series Charmed alongside Holly Marie Combs and Rose McGowan from 1998 to 2006, and she continues to light up both the big and small screens.

Alyssa dropped the innocent-girl act from Who’s the Boss? as soon as she hit adulthood and took on sexually charged roles in films like Fear (1996) and Poison Ivy II (1996). She also stripped down to next-to-nothing for Candie’s perfume ads. She has ranked on FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World list four times, as well as on several other “sexiest women” lists. So, in essence, Alyssa is one of the sexiest women we’ve ever watched grow up.

Halle Berry spent most of her youth in beauty pageants, and for good reason. Play..boy named Halle among the 100 Sexiest Women of the Century in 1998, and she’s been on People magazine’s 50 Most Beautiful People in the World list endless times. Her face and her physical attributes are a study in perfection.

She was put on this Earth to make men’s jaws drop. She has done a great job so far: Her sex appeal is undeniable. She has never disappointed us at awards shows, and if you remember the dress she wore when she won her 2002 Oscar, ypu’ll agree there’s little doubt that designers get off on dressing up one of Hollywood’s most beautiful dolls.

As Keanu Reeves once wisely said: whoa! This curvy babe makes us wish we could be world-famous rock stars or basketball players because, from the looks of her track record, it seems like she goes for them, big-time.

Carmen Electra has appeared in Playboy, Baywatch, Singled Out, and a series of movies ranging from Scary Movie (2000) to My Boss’s Daughter (2003). She even has her own reality show, ‘Til Death Do Us Part: Carmen and Dave, and a DVD series called Carmen Electra’s Aerobic Striptease. No kidding.

Well, it’s no secret that Jennifer Lopez is one of the sexiest women in the world. She’s a singer, an actress, a dancer, and a Bronx girl.

Jennifer Lopez is about as sexy as any woman can naturally be. Considering that she hasn’t had any work done (well, none that we know of), we have to admit that she’s a smokin’ Latin lady. With her tan skin, sparkling eyes, tantalizing curves, and infamous rear, it’s no wonder we love drooling over J-Lo’s repeating music videos every day.

She’s beautiful, eccentric and highly intelligent. She questions what goes on around her and she’s not afraid to be sexual. On top of all that, she’s a great actress and humanitarian.

Angelina Jolie has starred in thrillers like The Bone Collector and Taking Lives, blockbusters such as Gone in Sixty Seconds, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and bombs like Alexander. She’s also famous for her headlining way of life. From her well-documented marriage to Billy Bob Thornton to her highly publicized romance with Brad Pitt, Angelina is famous for both her personal and professional lives.
