Without further ado, let’s get into the 30 hottest women in the world right now.

The Hottest Women in 2024

1. Rihanna

The queen of Bajan pop and IDGAF Instagram comments has spawned 14 number-ones on the Billboard Hot 100, eight albums in almost as many years, multiple Grammys, over 141 international music awards, and collaborated with stars across genres. But she didn’t stop there.

The majority of her $1.4 billion net worth comes from her multiple businesses – Fenty Beauty, Fenty Skin, and Savage x Fenty, her fire lingerie brand. You can’t blame people for dancing, or for fawning over her to the point of obsession, as Rihanna remains the sexiest woman alive, year after year.

2. Selena Gomez

She started as a cherubic-faced Disney star and quickly eclipsed the star-power even Disney holds (which is a lot). Gomez is now the fourth most followed person on Instagram with a whopping 429 million followers, which is more than even Ms. Social Media herself, Kim K.

She’s a singer, an actress, and a business owner with her new beauty brand, Rare Beauty. Which accurately describes Selena, as she is clearly one of the hottest (and most successful) women of all time.

3. Adriana Lima

 Adriana Lima, heralded as one of the hottest women in the world, has been a beacon in the modeling industry, known for her striking presence as a long-standing Victoria’s Secret Angel.

Her remarkable journey from winning Ford’s “Supermodel of Brazil” competition to becoming a global fashion icon underscores her diverse heritage and versatile talent, encompassing high-profile runway shows, commercials, and magazine covers worldwide.

Lima’s enduring influence and success in fashion, acting, and business ventures exemplify her status as a multifaceted and influential figure in the world of beauty and style.

4. Kate Upton

Supermodel Kate Upton is curvaceous and bodacious, and her four Sports Illustrated Swimsuit covers have certainly celebrated that fact. She also graced the cover of the 100th-anniversary Vanity Fair cover, and she’s appeared on the covers of Italian, American and British Vogue.

Basically, she’s an international sensation, and it’s not hard to see why. Upton is a supermodel of the top degree, and that’s why she’ll always earn her spot on the hottest woman list.

5. Scarlett Johannson

Scar-Jo recently made her debut as the Black Widow, and she’s a real-life superhero too. She’s public about her support for multiple charities that fight poverty and promote cancer research. Her films have grossed her over $15.4 billion worldwide, making her the highest-grossing box office female star of all time. And we get it – if Scarlett Johansson is in it, we’ll be there.

Her recent marriage to funny-man Colin Jost in 2020 had us all mourning, as if we had a chance, anyway. One of the richest women is also one of the hottest, and that’s proof that the universe does indeed play favorites.

6. Bella Hadid

While the elder Hadid goes for the all-American girl-next-door, Bella is happier to play the black sheep in a series of the hottest topless shoots, risqué outfits, and a barely-there Victoria’s Secret appearance.

There’s science to back this pick, too. According to a renowned cosmetic surgeon, Bella has the most symmetrical face in the world, making her the most beautiful woman alive.

Her high profile ex, The Weeknd, helped Bella’s star rise even more when we were all left wondering which songs on his recent album were about her. The lucky guy has dated another woman on this list (Selena Gomez), and that’s why we’re not giving up on our rap career just yet.

7. Gigi Hadid

Turns out good things do come in pairs. From a Real Housewives afterthought to the princess regent of supermodels, Gigi Hadid is not only among the hottest women in the world, but has navigated her career better than Lewis Hamilton at the Monaco Grand Prix.

It all started with a Desigual show in 2014. From there, the LA native racked up gigs with Carine Roitfeld, Vogue (several issues), Versace, and Chanel, paving the way to the throne with a series of front covers and closing runway appearances. Factor in the model’s must-have famous baby daddy – in this case, Zayn Malik – and Gigi is set for a place on the sexiest woman list for years to come.

Jenna’s dedication to breaking cultural barriers in film and television has not only garnered critical acclaim but also made her a beacon for young talent, embodying the essence of one of the hottest women in the world with both grace and power.

11. Beyonce

Beyonce is the queen bee, and everybody knows it, which is why no “hottest woman” list would be complete without her. Her star knows no limits, made evident by the fact that she almost never does press and still manages to sell her albums like hot cakes.

She’s won an astounding 32 Grammy Awards to date, the female artist with the most Grammy wins ever. Her accomplishments aren’t limited to her music career, as she’s also wife to Jay-Z (ever heard of him?) and mother of three. She’s the GOAT, and undeniably one of the most sexiest women in the world.

15. Ana de Armas 

Ana de Armas, born in Cuba in 1988, rapidly ascended in the acting world, from her Havana theater school beginnings at 14 to starring roles by 16. Her journey took her from Cuba to Spain, and finally to Hollywood, where she shone in “War Dogs” and “Blade Runner 2049.” Recently, she captivated audiences in “Blonde,” earned a lead in the “John Wick” spin-off “Ballerina,” and teamed up again with Chris Evans in “Ghosted.”

Her undeniable screen presence, remarkable talent, and stunning beauty, alongside her dynamic and challenging roles, have solidified her status among the world’s hottest women and most talented actresses.

16. Emily Ratajkowski

There’s only one Emily Ratajkowski, and you still can’t pronounce her name properly. The beautiful woman that made ‘Blurred Lines’ a cultural phenomenon (though only Robin Thicke can be blamed for the backlash) has gone from strength-to-strength in Hollywood.

She’s not simply content with steaming up your Instagram feed, either. The London-born model is making a play for the big screen too, appearing as an actress in Gone Girl and We Are Your Friends in all her wonderful, technicolor glory.

17. Zendaya

Zendaya, a multifaceted talent from Oakland, California, has evolved from a child model and Disney star to a leading figure in Hollywood and music, acclaimed for her roles in “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” “The Greatest Showman,” and “Euphoria.”

Her work, including launching a clothing line and serving as an ambassador for Convoy of Hope, alongside her groundbreaking Emmy win for “Euphoria,” cements her as a significant influence and role model for young audiences globally.

18. Charlize Theron

Beauty doesn’t have an age limit, and 46-year-old Charlize Theron proves it. She’s one of the world’s highest paid actresses, recipient of multiple awards, including an Academy Award and Golden Globe, and she’s drop-dead gorgeous to boot.

Her performance in Monster won her the coveted Best Actress Award, though her breakout role was in the horror flick, The Devil’s Advocate. Theron has been gracing our screens for over 20 years, and we hope she never stops.

19. Gal Gadot

She first caught our attention when she appeared as Wonder Woman in 2017, but we were even more intrigued when we discovered that Gal Gadot is a real-life superhero. Originally from Israel, Gadot served two years in the Israel Defense Forces as a soldier.

Picking that is enough to make our jaws drop, but Gal is ever the overachiever, as she also holds the title of Miss Israel. She’s beauty, she’s grace, and she can kick your ass. Basically, our dream girl.

20. Blake Lively

Gossip Girl was the mid-noughties’ biggest guilty pleasure, labeled as one of the most shocking teen dramas of its time. It wasn’t. Blake Likely, however, was one of the best things about it.

She’s graduated from piss-poor scripts about Upper East Side brats and is taking on decidedly more adult roles – while also being a wife and full-time parent alongside Ryan Reynolds. She’s still one of the hottest women in Hollywood and beyond, with beauty that transcends age and time. The Age Of Adaline star gets our XOXO.

21. Thylane Blondeau

At 25, Thylane Blondeau, celebrated as one of the hottest women in the world, has seamlessly transitioned from a child prodigy on Jean Paul Gaultier’s runway to a global fashion icon and accomplished actress.

Her multifaceted career, highlighted by a partnership with L’Oréal and memorable acting roles such as in “Belle et Sébastien, l’aventure continue,” showcases her wide-ranging talents. Signed with IMG Models, Blondeau continues to influence fashion well beyond the catwalk, while her life in Aix-en-Provence and her distinctive stature in the modeling world underscore her unique presence in the industry.

22. Kendall Jenner

There are hot women, and then there are the Kardashian-Jenners. The Kardashians are the Hollywood equivalent of an indulgent, definitely-not-good-for-you meal — you know you shouldn’t, but resistance is futile. One of the younger flagbearers – Kendall – is proving to be far less divisive than the TV show that propelled her family to fame.

Which is a real cultural anomaly, considering her CV. First, there was that ill-advised Pepsi ad for this model. Then those Notorious BIG ‘vintage’ t-shirts that transposed her own face alongside one of hip hop’s most revered figures – despite the fact they’d never even met. And we still forgive her, every single time. Can’t imagine why.

23. Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian haters can back off. Not only did she reclaim excessive use of the letter K back from hood-wearing rednecks, but she’s also made a mint by identifying what the people want: her. Through Instagram, television, and magazine covers, the most famous Kardashian has built a $4 billion brand by just being her.

She has not one business, but several, ranging from makeup to shapewear, and throws some of the most lavish parties in Hollywood, on top of being a mother of four, thanks to rap legend, Kanye West. Detractors may feel entitled to their criticism, but it won’t put them on the same pay grade… or make her any less sexy.

24. Margot Robbie

Margot Robbie, the rose of Wall Street, harkens back to a Golden Age of Hollywood when the roles were coveted, and the actresses behind them even more so. The 33-year-old is only set to increase the trend, too.

Often hailed as the sexiest woman alive, Margot Robbie has skillfully navigated her career from her early days on “Neighbours” to becoming a globally recognized actress and producer.  In 2023, her role as Barbie not only broke box office records but also highlighted her prowess as a producer, securing her a nomination for Best Picture at the Academy Awards.

Sorry fellas, but Margot’s better than all of you put together and remains among the hottest women of all time.

25. Priyanka Chopra

Don’t ever discount Bollywood. Not only is it one of the most profitable film industries in the world, but it’s also given rise to hot women like Priyanka Chopra to spread the message abroad. Appearing in over sixty films across all four corners of the globe, the actress caused the world to listen up to Indian cinema and, better yet, take it seriously.

She’s also making the switch to Western movies, with a raft of blockbusters already under her belt. And, her high-profile marriage to Nick Jonas is the envy of love-sick women everywhere.

26. Mila Kunis

Let’s be honest – she was your crush while appearing on That 70’s Show alongside now-husband Ashton Kutcher, and she’s still your crush now. Mila Kunis is as savvy as she is sexy. She managed to snag her starring role as Jackie at just 14 years old, and she’s been voicing Meg Griffin on Family Guy since 1999.

A mother of two, Kunis is now making headlines for not washing her kids regularly, and that somehow makes her even more relatable. This girl-next-door deserves a place as one of the hottest women ever.

27. Ashley Graham

Ashley Graham: proof that beauty comes in all sizes, and a collective sigh of contentment from men and women the world over. The 34-year-old American model changed the perceptions of an industry obsessed with cookie-cutter sizes when she graced the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue in 2016, the first plus-size model to do so.

Although there’s much more work to do, we can sit Graham atop a trend that’ll stimulate some welcome change. Nothing screams “hottest women” quite like some curves.

28. Emilia Clarke

Mother of Dragons, Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Breaker Of Chains (and hearts), actress Emilia Clarke’s racked up a series of titles to rival Liz Windsor herself. They’re all very well-earned, too.

Okay, so they’re all fictional. Ever since Clarke appeared on our screens as Game Of Thrones‘ Daenerys Targaryen though, we’ve been hooked to this new brand of swords, dragons, and shagging. Next up: the Han Solo movie. Geeks everywhere rejoice because one of the hottest women gracing our screens is here to stay.

29. Jourdan Dunn

Jourdan Dunn is the ultimate girl-done-good. From humble beginnings in Greenford, the 30-year-old became the first black British woman to appear on Forbes’ top-earning models list – all while juggling the travails of motherhood.

Her portfolio is proof of sheer hard work, too, lined with the likes of Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Balmain, and Burberry all previous paychecks that show no sign of Dunn fatigue. Thank God this beauty isn’t going anywhere.

30. Megan Fox

Megan Fox got the attention of men everywhere in her 2007 appearance in Transformers, and she hasn’t lost it yet. She was called “the first bona fide sex symbol of the 21st century,” by The Los Angeles Times and we couldn’t agree more.

Aside from her role as the star of the posters on every teenage boy’s bedroom walls throughout the 2000s, Fox has appeared in countless films, including Jennifer’s Body and Rogue.

She’s been making headlines recently thanks to her cringe-inducing over-the-top PDA relationship with Machine Gun Kelly, but thanks to her contributions to female kind, we’ll forgive it.
