Discuss Maxim's Hot 100 (2008)

Maxim released their Hott 100 list today. You can view the entire list of eye candy here:

http://www.maxim.com/Girls/Girls/slideshow/thumbnails/2463.aspx

AfterEllen's "favorite" bisexual Tila Tequila made the list at #100... out bisexual (and ex-wife to Marilyn Manson) Dita Von Teese hit the list at #87... and Ashley Olsen took the #47 spot despite the fact that her identical twin Mary Kate was curiously absent from the list. Super model Marisa Miller made off with the #1 spot. So congrats to her.

How do you agree or disagree with who ranked where on Maxim's list? Will this list affect the AE list do out in June? Why or why not?

Start the discussion!!!

Geez, I can't believe I'm

Geez, I can't believe I'm going to comment this ridiculous list, but, I have to say this: ok, I may be a bit subjective, but c'mon, a top 100 list without Angelina Jolie, Monica Belucci, Kate Beckinsale, CZJ, Catherine Heigl... and I won't even bother to comment on some really REALLY questionable choices...I mean, I get that it's a matter of taste and I respect that but if AJ and Monica aren't exceptionaly beautiful women than I don't know who is...

I can't believe that I've actually lost 10 minutes of my life browsing trough THAT!?

Thank God we have our own Top 100.

i wonder who makes their list

i didn't even look through half of it. i really went to look at the number 100 spot, because i had already seen who got the number 1 spot on A&E's the daily 10. i don't understand 2 things about maxim's list....

1) how could you NOT include angelina jolie? she is so so fine on so many levels! and 2) how can you include one of the olsen twins but not the other? they look exactly the same

Olsen twins = not exactly

 

Just FYI - The Olsen Twins are NOT identical twins, they're fraternal - different DNA.

But frankly, neither would be on my Top 1,000 - or even 10,000 - Too superficial, from what I've seen.

britney spears

I just did a quick glance but all i have to say is BRITNEY SPEARS? Really? why is she on the list? And expecially at number 19!

hmmm

I thought Megan Fox topped that list... or was that for some other one?

A lot of people have voted already so I don't think it will affect the AE list. But looking through that list, how did I forget Hayden Panettiere??

I agree with addie25, thank God we have our own Top 100.

Megan Fox

Topped the FHM list.  There was an excellent article in the Toronto Star on May 3 with regards to the selection of women.

I'm looking forward to the outcome of the AfterEllen list and seeing real women instead of the starved, plastic versions being appreciated!

The Harry Potter fan in me

The Harry Potter fan in me is happy that Emma Watson is on the list. But no Alyssa Milano! I hope she gets a place in the Afterellen's list. And some SON cast(especially Mandy Musgrave).

We'll See

It'll be interesting to compare the list from AE to Maxim.

For all the faults of this list (how do Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan make such a list after the year they've had), their list is more diverse than it was last year...and maybe well be more diverse than ours.

We'll see, I guess.

The BEST Maxim List....

 

IMHO, the best Maxim List would be "Maxim's Top 100 Lesbian Women"!

....after all, Girls who love Giirls is a male fantasy....isn't it?

Maybe we could start a petition?

Leighton Meester #48

At least they got one right!  Oh Blair, how I love thee!  She's so smart and talented and pretty and FUNNY!  I'm not sure how Transformer girl beat her, beautiful ain't the whole shebang, but maybe that's what separates us from the apes.

Ugh

I agree with the Tornroto starts observation.The women on this list all start to look alike. I'm not saying they aren't sexy but it still it's kind of a depressing list. I'm still upset at Maxim for calling SJP the unsexiest woman alive. How can any woman still be proud to be on their list after they had an unsexiest women alive list ?!

sjp

sarah jessica parker is not attractive. at all. to me, she looks like a cross between a dog and a foot.

Your're missing my point

I don't care if you find her attractive or not but how hurtful that was to her to be listed as one of the unsexiest women alive. It was a sexiest thing to do and I don't see how women can just support Maxim. SJP said it herself that it made her feel bad when she first heard about it. But from your comments about her, I doubt you care .

I don't even recognise 80%

I don't even recognise 80% of those girls. oO Could just be the way they're shot, though. Regardless, our list is going to wipe the floor with theirs. :)

LMAO!!!

LMAO@ The Pussycat Dolls being on the list as one entity. tila Tequila looks like vomit. I don't know who 76% of those chicks are. I couldn't tell one from the other.

Except for rihanna.

Why the fuck is any Olsen on there?!? Gross. They look like monkeys.

Tila

LOL yeah, that girl is so ridiculous. 

Ceares's picture

One of these things is not like the others

Sorry, but while I don't find either of them sexy, not only are the Olsen twins not identical but due to her issues with anorexia, Mary Kate always looks borderline scary skinny-I have to definitely say Ashley was the better looking-healthier looking of the two.  Which I have to give them a small amount of credit, at least they aren't going with the 'death is a hot look'.

Their list skews young and fantasy screw as always, so I'd have to guess that Angelina has aged/motherhooded her way off their radar. but I'd really love to see a 'man on the street' top 100 list.

LilyJadeRose's picture

i would have thought they

i would have thought they could have at least given mary kate a sympathy bid. anorexia is some serious shit to deal with and i think she did a pretty good job considering she's smack dab in the middle of hollywood where the thinner the better.

i think both olsen twins are beautiful and business smart. oh sure, any number of opinions on their looks can be found but, when if i go look in my wallet right now, i only have $3...i know if they go look in theirs, there's a helluva lot more than that! money isn't everything, but it counts for something. lol

Okay, props for

America Ferrera! But other than that, I don't really know half the girls (although that's not necessarily a bad thing!). And while there are some pretty hot girls, a lot of the pictures kinda suck.

I'm happy America Ferrera

I'm happy America Ferrera made the list!

"Beauty" is in the eye of the beholder

Not to say that these women aren't beautiful but I think perception is definately key, I find it bizare how we can have such different opinions. Sometimes I think men think that they have to say these types of women are hot because otherwise they won't be conisered masculine enough, I mean really no Kate Beckinsale or Kate Walsh - are they blind?? Props for Jennifer Love Hewit, Drew Barymore and America on the list though...

so much voting...

Maxim did another "hot" list this year. the 9 hottest mexican women.

http://www.maxim.com/Girls/Girls/slideshow/thumbnails/2460.aspx

why only nine i wonder? and how come out of this 9, only two made it onto their Hot 100 list? (i only counted 2, but maybe i miscounted)
