Top 25 Sexiest Models
1.Heidi Klum /IMG
Project Runway with an audience in the millions. Check. A Victoria Secret's contract that Miss Klum has an iron grip on. Check. Her own line of shoes, jewelry and candy. Check. The icon they call Heidi Inc. is no mere sexy mortal this one, but a force of nature. All hail.

2. Gisele Bundchen / IMG

Viva La Gisele. She of the cascading hair, the shimmering skin, the impossible body and the effervescent personality. Then add the biggest Victoria's Secret contract in history and the Hollywood matinee idol companion and you have to confess the woman has the whole kit! She is a Brazilian national hero for a reason. SS08: Versace, Stefanel, Aquascutum, Disney Parks, Dolce Gabbana fragrance "the one", Vogue eyewear

3. Adriana Lima / DNA

Hailing from Bahia Brazil, this smouldering beauty is a major triple threat with big bonanza contracts for Maybelline, Victoria's Secret and Telecom Italia Mobile (think "the Verizon of Italy"). And have you seen her turn in the new Pirelli calender by Demarchelier? She is the definition of exquisite!

4. Tyra Banks / (No agency)

When will to power comes packaged in a body like this, then what you have is manifest destiny. For the evidence of this consult America's Next Top Model which, now that it is becoming a global franchise clocks her the kind of dollars that just might make an Oprah of Tyra. Then there is her incredible long distance run as a Victoria's Secret spokesmodel. Tyra... Banks. It's not just a name anymore, it's a job description.

5. Karolina Kurkova / DNA

She could strip her name down to the initials and people would know KK meant Karolina Kurkova. Classic and quirky, sleek yet curvy, upbeat and ambitious. Miss Kurkova is like a walking, talking blue chip stock!


6. Alessandra Ambrosio / Elite

Ah, the life of Alessandra Ambrosio with her multi-million dollar Victoria's Secret contract,a swim-wear line that moved 10,000 units in only its first month on the market and her string of houses from LA to NY to Brazil. Glorious!


7. Yamila Diaz-Rahi / Next

Argentinian native, Yamila was discovered on a beach in Uruguay and almost immediately started raking in the bookings. With clients from Sports Illustrated (2002 cover star) to Victoria's Secret to Marie Claire, this green eyed stunner is a stealth champion in modeling. Just ask Cover Girl who cast Yamila as their first Latin American spokesmodel.

8. Ana Beatriz Barros / Next

Hailing from Itabria Brazil, 22 year old Ana Beatriz is just about ready to peak as a major, major asset in that very lucrative "sexy" market. She's done her stints for Guess, Victoria's Secret and Sports Illustrated but there is a twinkle in this girl's eye that there's much more to come

9. Natalia Vodianova / DNA

Tom Ford touted her as "the most beautiful girl in the world"; Calvin has her lock, stock and barrel under contract. It is a testament to the impeccable marketing behind Natalia Vodianova, that this stunning Russian lands in the Top 10 of our Top 25 Sexiest Model industry poll. You cannot deny true beauty!

10. Carolyn Murphy / IMG

If you should trace the secret history of Carolyn Murphy, from her David Sims ad for Prada, where she had that severe crop through to her flourishing as the elegant face of Estee Lauder you would see that "chameleon shifts" was always the name of her game. Now with the 2005 SI cover Carolyn has made it clear that she can be every inch as sexy as any model on the block.
