| A British actress joined supermodels in a list of the world’s five most desirable women, determined by a poll by askmen.com.
Kate Beckinsale came third in the poll which ranked reality TV’s Emmanuelle Chriqui of Canada as the most desirable woman in the world.
American model Marisa Miller came in third, while Brazilian Alessandra Ambrosio, who also models for Victoria’s Secret, came in fourth. Jessica Alba came in fifth, while Miranda Kerr of Australia finished 10th.
Chirqui said: ‘It absolutely stunned me. I laughed because I thought that is so crazy! It’s such a massive compliment. Hearing what that vote is made of is the biggest compliment of all – because it’s not just about being considered ‘hot’ but also about being a well-rounded woman. That’s really empowering. That is a massive compliment – people recognize that I care about other things.’
Australia was the third most represented country in the annual askmen.com 99 Most Desirable Women list behind the US and the UK. Australian models Emily Scott (No. 44), Megan Gale (No. 48), Myer rival Jennifer Hawkins (No. 64) made the list along with singer Sophie Monk, who came in at 71.
AskMen.com’s Australian editor Emma-Kate Dobbin said it was great to see so many Australians in the poll. ‘It’s clear that men around the world love Aussie women,’ she said.
