Maxim Hot 100

Modeling can be hard. Sometimes, you get swept off a rock during a topless photoshoot. But sometimes, you get the recognition that you've worked so hard to earn.

Kate Upton has secured the #1 spot on Maxim's legendary Hot 100 List.

Candice Swanepoel topped Maxim's 2014 Hot 100 list, so she was naturally the guest of honor at the magazine's annual party held in LA last night. 

While Candice looked undeniably gorgeous (as usual) the reigning Hot 100 champ was certainly not alone in dropping jaws on the red carpet:

Selena Gomez may not be the hottest woman on the Maxim Hot 100, but the young singer isn't too distressed over her ranking.

She is number-two, after all.

We already know that Miley Cyrus is #1.

And Selena Gomez is #2, Kate Upton #8 and Manti Te'o's pretend girlfriend #69.

Miley Cyrus is out to prove she belongs atop the Maxim Hot 100.

Following the (shocking!) announcement that this singer is apparently the sexiest female on the planet, Maxim has released a new, especially racy picture of Cyrus.

Miley Cyrus is number-one.

But Maxim has now come out with the rest of its Hot 100 Top 10... and some of the names included may surprise you.

Miley Cyrus cannot be tamed. So to speak.

She's #1 on the new Maxim Hot 100 list in a bit of a stunner, and couldn't help but blow the lid off the story before the magazine even announced it.
