‘Maxim’ teases their annual Hot 100 list by releasing 19 names

After last year in which they inexplicably named Miley Cyrus the hottest woman in the world, this year Maxim is releasing just a few names at a time. Take a look at who’s made the list and where they rank so far.

We’ll have to wait until Tuesday, June 3rd for Maxim’s full list of 100 sexy ladies, but here’s who’s locked down to a spot on the list so far.

#96 Iggy Azalea, #86 Victoria Justice, #82 Lana Del Rey, #73 Rita Ora (who killed it at the MTV Movie Awards), #70 Kacey Musgraves (no surprise since she was the talk of the Grammys), #69 Danielle Fishel (?), #56 Carrie Underwood, #48 Paula Patton, #46 Kellie Pickler, #40 Demi Lovato, #38 Shakira, #34 Alyssa Milano (what year is this again?), #33 Ashley Tisdale, #28 Vanessa Hudgens, #21 Beyonce (she does have her own religion), #19 Selena Gomez, #15 Christina Aguilera (really?), and #11 Rihanna.

Of note, they already reported that Miley Cyrus came in at #25 this year. I guess after being naked pretty much the entire year since she took the top spot Maxim and their readers weren’t as impressed with her hotness as they were in 2013. Oh the irony…
