FHM Magazine has released its annual list of 100 Sexiest Women in the World 2013 -- we bring you the top 20!
Each year, glamorous divas from across entertainment and fashion compete to be crowned FHM's Sexiest Woman in the World.
Now in its nineteenth year, the publication has released its prestigious 100 list for 2013 -- take a look at who's moved up the charts, moved down or been knocked off!
Here are the lovely ladies who made it to the top 20.
20. Jennifer Lawrence
The 22-year-old Hunger Games star is certainly shining this year. First an Oscar win and now she's named one of the best-looking babes on the planet!
Jennifer was Number 74 on the list in 2012 and now she's made it to 20 -- quite a climb.
19. Beyonce Knowles

The blonde British singer is down four places from 14th position in 2012, but hey -- she's still smokin'!
17. Megan Fox

This is the first time that foxy Megan has dropped out of the top 10 since her debut at Number One in 2008.
Still, like Beyonce, this is her sixth consecutive appearance in the FHM ranks.
16. Katy Perry

The Californian popster is also 10 spots down from last year at Number Six, but her voluptuous charm is hardly diminishing.
15. Rita Ora

This 22-year-old singer from the UK made her presence felt at a lowly 94 on the list in 2012, but she's hot property this year and has climbed phenomenally to 15.
Easy to see why!
14. Rosie Jones

The brunette glamour model has some truly sizzling photoshoots to her credit and comes in at 14, ten places lower than last year.
13. Jorgie Porter

British actress Jorgie's profile certainly seems to be on the rise. From 84th sexiest woman in the world in 2012 she's now 13th.
12. Taylor Swift

The country music cutie has a very demure sense of style and shuns revealing clothes, but sexy she certainly is! Since her debut on the list in 2009, Taylor's never made it to the top 50, but 2013 has shot her up to 12.
11. Tulisa Contostavlos

You're looking at last year's winner -- British singer Tulisa was Sexiest Woman in the World 2012. Unfortunately, she wasn't able to hold onto the title and slid right out of the top 10.
10. Georgia Salpa

Rounding off the top 10 is this Irish-Greek glamour model and Kim Kardashian-lookalike. Georgia made her debut last year in fifth place.
9. Cheryl Cole

The singer and former X-Factor judge completes a decade on the sexiest women list this year. Cheryl has been in first place twice in a row (2009 and 2010) and has been runner-up twice as well (2005 and 2012). She's not so lucky this time around though, and comes in ninth.
8. Kate Upton

The 20-year-old American supermodel is undoubtedly one of the most fabulous-looking ladies on the planet. Kate figures at Number Eight this year, up 15 spots from 23 in 2012.
7. Pixie Lott

In at seven we have the smoky-eyed musician who FHM claims is the UK's answer to Britney Spears. This is Pixie's fourth consecutive appearance on the list, and her highest-ranked so far.
6. Kaley Cuoco

This model-actress is certainly going places -- from 56th rank in the last list to sixth in this one is a staggering climb!
5. Kelly Brook

Thumbing her nose at Cheryl's decade as one of FHM's sexiest women is the curvy glamour model, who hasn't left the list since her debut on it in 1998 -- that's 15 years! Kelly comes in fifth this time.
4. Michelle Keegan

She topped ZOO Magazine's annual 'Hot 101' list for 2013 and now this is another feather in her cap -- 25-year-old Brit actress Michelle is up from last year's 26th place to fourth.
3. Helen Flanagan

The blonde-haired, blue-eyed actress is certainly making waves -- from 86 in 2010m to 47 in 2012, to third in 2013! Hardly surprising, though, what say?
2. Rihanna

Risque RiRi loves flaunting her bod -- and what a bod it is! She featured at Number Three these last two years and has now inched up to runner-up. Wonder if she'll nab the crown next time?
1. Mila Kunis

And finally we come to the Sexiest Woman in the World 2013! Mila has been on the list thrice before, always within the top 20. Now she's queen bee for a year, but let's see if the petite beauty manages to hang onto the crown in 2014.
