46 Rebecca Romijn

If the rumors are true, this summer's X-Men: The Last Stand will mark the last time Rebecca appears on the big screen in nothing more than a few gallons of blue body paint and some artfully placed fish scales. Somewhere a makeup man is crushed.

44 Kelly Ripa

Having trouble getting it up in the morning? Wake up with everybody's favorite MILF, who puts the Kelly in ABC's stalwart Live With Regis and Kelly. No wonder Reege won't stop looking up her s***t, the old dog!

43 Gabrielle Union

She played Honey in last year's remake of The Honeymooners and the inspiration for stalkers in the TV show Night Stalker, but you can see this stunner in the upcoming movie Running With Scissors. Slow down, girl, be careful!

42 Sienna Miller

In a mansion Jude Law is clutching a copy of this magazine, staring longingly at Sienna's picture, wondering why he cheated on the star of Casanova and the upcoming Factory Girl. Serves him right.

41 Daniella Alonso

This smoking-hot New Yorker got her big break on the legendary soap As the World Turns. These days she's igniting the small screen as Anna on One Tree Hill, our fave WB show since Dawson's.

40 Alicia Keys

At 25 she has a trio of hit albums (the latest is Unplugged). Sounds good, but Alicia's been playing since she was seven. Three in 18 years? And we thought Axl was slow.

39 Nadine Velazquez

After breaking into the biz with a McDonald's commercial, Nadine's finally found her true calling: playing Catalina, the booty-shaking karmic confidante and cleaning lady on My Name Is Earl.

38 Paris Hilton

When she's not losing her toy pet animals, telephone equipment, private videotapes, boyfriends, and undergarments, Paris is making movies like House of Wax and writing books (with words in them!). And you thought she was just a pretty face.

37 Emmanuelle Chriqui

Another fine import from our neighbor to the north, Emmanuelle fell under Usher's watchful eye in In the Mix. But we really loved her in Entourage, starring as a reason to move to Hollywood.

36

36 Fergie

After much scrutiny and the use of slow-motion instant replay, we finally figured out whose humps the Black Eyed Peas are singing about in their hit single, "My Humps." Clearly, Fergie's.

35 Avril Lavigne

This tomboyish punker did a lot of growing up this year, filming her first movie (Fast Food Nation), going for a girly new makeover, and getting engaged to that dude from Sum 41. Sigh. Two out of three ain't bad.

34 Jaime Pressly

Who doesn't love a girl that likes to spit and curse? As the embodiment of sass-with-no-class on My Name Is Earl, Jaime's the most exciting thing to hit the trailer park since Skoal.

33 Natalie Portman

Sure, she has a degree from Harvard, but as a bald terrorist in V for Vendetta, Natalie had her biggest accomplishment yet: proving that you don't need hair to be hot.

32 Veronica Varekova

Veronica is from the Czech Republic, homeland of fellow hotties Petra Nemcova and Paulina Porizkova. Whatever's in the water there, hurry up and bottle it already!
