Last week, we asked you which actress you’d like to see slip into a catsuit to play Batman’s feline-fixated nemesis, Catwoman — and now the votes are in!

While much of the comic book movie world is concentrating on a different cat-themed character lately, there was certainly no shortage of readers willing to weigh in on who they’d like to see play Selina Kyle next in the Batman film franchise.

With over 20 percent of the final votes, “Underworld” actress Kate Beckinsale ended up the top choice among fans, with a pair of notable actresses following along in her wake, and a host of write-in candidates with a lot of support.

Here’s how the voting breakdown looked:

KATE Beckinsale has to wear wigs in movies — because her daughter doesn’t like it when she changes her hair!

The Whiteout star says Lily Mo Sheen — her child with former flame Michael Sheen — rules the roost when it comes to fashion.

“My daughter gets upset if I do anything different with how I look,” Beckinsale said. “If I come into the room looking any different — like if I change my hair, she’ll tell me straight.

“She tells me when I look horrible. Which is partly why I haven’t cut my hair — I wear wigs in my movies. She really tells me when I get it wrong – but she tells me when I get it right too.”

Kate, 36, recently revealed that it’s unlikely she’ll be slipping back into her rubber catsuit for another Underworld movie because she doesn’t want Lily to see her mom in rubber.

“I was only ever going to be in the first one but if they came up with an amazing script I wouldn’t be averse to it,” she said. “I don’t think my daughter needs to see my bottom in rubber for another ten years. “But I don’t know — I heard they’re talking about a fourth one but I don’t know if that’s officially happening.”

That’s right! You could win a chance to meet Kate Beckinsale, the Sexiest Woman Alive 2009, in person. You’ll get a round-trip flight to New York City for you and a friend, a hotel room to crash in, plus a chance to get some face-time with the lovely Miss Beckinsale at the premiere of her upcoming movie, Everybody’s Fine, on December 3, 2009.

Kate Beckinsale was mortified after she was branded the Sexiest Woman Alive – and she hates admitting she’s the owner of the title.

The Underworld star was handed the honour by Esquire magazine earlier this year, knocking beautiful Halle Berry off the number one spot.

But the bashful Brit insists she has struggled to cope with the alluring name – and finds it hard when people quiz her over her new sexy status.

She says, “It’s such a nice thing to happen and then immediately it’s mortifying.

“Somebody came up to me in the street and went ‘are you the sexiest woman alive?’ And I went ‘yes,’ and then I thought, ‘Errrggh I can’t say yes to that!’

“I should be shot on sight for that, it’s awful!”

Hey Guys! I just ran across another cute photo of Kate Beckinsale as a young child. Doesn’t she have cute pinch-able little cheeks? Hope you enjoy!
