Maxim‘s annual Hot 100 list is out… and the winner is Katy Perry! It may hit as a surprise to many, but I feel it was long overdue. No one can deny that she’s one hell of a hot babe, and now Maxim has given us a reason to celebrate her heavenly hotness by officially crowning her the hottest woman alive.
The perky singer beat a bevy of hot contenders to claim the top spot on the Maxim 2010 Hot 100 list. Brooklyn Decker and Zoe Saldana claimed the second and third spot respectively, while last year’s winner Olivia Wilde took a nosedive to land on number 20. Also, Beyonce Knowles and Lady Gaga are no longer hot as per the new list.
Here’s a big congrats to you, Katy! Check out the top 20 hot babes after the jump.
