Maxim magazine has released the Maxim Hot 100 list almost every year since 2000. Although it's been contested, as attractiveness is subjective, it's safe to say that the winner is always eye-catching to all. They choose based not only on their looks, but also on their career, charm, sense of humor, personality, talents, and much more. The woman who takes the number one spot is named 'Sexiest Woman Alive' for the year.
