The Maxim Hot 100 Dilemma

I recently blogged about people I find attractive, which meant that I just Google Image searched for people that I liked watching in Movies and TV.  I started over at the Maxim Hot 100 and was kind kind of shocked at how some of the rankings went on.  Now, I'm going to list them and then edit it by my standards.

Dessie Mitcheson
Ashley Sky
Rebecca Mader
Daniella Alonso
Kellie Pickler
Zooey Deschanel
Dawn Olivieri
Lynsi Torres
Kenda Perez
Allison Williams
Leven Rambin
April Rose
Elisabeth Harnois
Katie Cassidy
Rosci Diaz
Aubrey Plaza
Alice Eve
Kat Dennings
Ashley Benson
Maggie Grace
Jamie Chung
Hoda Kotb
Ke$ha
Janina Gavankar
Emma Roberts
Natalie Martinez
Rachel Bilson
Katharine McPhee
Jessica Chastain
Sara Underwood
Nina Adgal
Manti T'eo's Fake Girlfriend
Anne V
Brittney Palmer
Joanna Krupa
Emilia Clarke
Candice Swanepoel
Stacy Keibler
Cameron Diaz
Emily VanCamp
Stana Katic
Brooklyn Decker
Amber Heard

Kate Beckinsale
Katy Perry
Elisha Cuthbert

Kate Upton
Ashley Tisdale
Jennifer Love Hewitt

That's 100-1.  I'm not kidding.  Maxim thinks it has a sense of humor because a fake girlfriend made the list. Not even 100, it was ranked in the 80's.  Now usually when guys and girls read this list, it's considered the best list for the determining how hot someone that's in the limelight is.  Now, let's fix this list by eliminating the names that make you say "who the fuck is that?".

So our Maxim Hot 100 is now a Maxim Hot 65.  35 women were taken off the list for being a "Who the Fuck is that" Member.  All of these names are recognizable to men.  They have been in movies that guys have seen and not just some chick on an E! show or whatever those no-names are famous for.  Now let's try to validate their position on the Hot 100 list.  I'm going to point out some of the faults with this list:


Zooey Deschanel
Allison Williams
Aubrey Plaza
Kat Dennings
Ashley Benson
Maggie Grace - Her worst fault is that she runs like a weirdo.  Huge turn-off.

Hoda Kotb - What the Fuck is she doing on this list?  She looks like a Kristen Wiig SNL character, but she's a real person.  She's 48 and I can think of hotter 48 year olds.
Ke$ha - This is what garbage looks like when in it's in female form.
Emma Roberts - Coattail rider of the century.
Rachel Bilson
Katharine McPhee
Jessica Chastain
Sara Underwood - Playboy Playmate. Also not really fair to put her on this list since Attack of the Show isn't really on air anymore.
Candice Swanepoel - Victoria Secret Model, kind of cheating too put her on the list.
Stacy Keibler - If she wasn't dating George Clooney, I don't think she would be on this list.
Cameron Diaz
Stana Katic
Brooklyn Decker
Amber Heard
Eva Mendes
Emmy Rossum
Rachel McAdams
Shakira
Brittany Snow
Lake Bell
Sofia Vergara
Sarah Hyland
Jordana Brewster
Malin Akerman
Julianne Hough
Lea Michele
Zoe Saldana
Amanda Seyfried
Leighton Meester
Kaley Cuoco
Charlize Theron
Hayden Panettiere
Olivia Munn
Danielle Fishel
Demi Lovato
Katrina Bowden - I don't know if she's famous enough.  She plays Cerie on 30 Rock, and barely had any lines.
Blake Lively
Heather Graham - She should be thanking her lucky stars that she was put in The Hangover and The Hanggover Part III.  She hasn't been relevant otherwise.
Christina Hendricks
Emma Stone
Megan Fox
Emma Watson
Jessica Alba
Olivia Wilde
Scarlett Johansson
Beyonce
Taylor Swift
Kate Beckinsale
Katy Perry
Elisha Cuthbert
Vanessa Hudgens
Kate Upton
Ashley Tisdale
Jennifer Love Hewitt - I don't know if she's hotter than the majority of the people that come before her, like Kate Upton, or Olivia Wilde, or Megan Fox.  Yeah, she's not.
Jennifer Lawrence
Mila Kunis
Rihanna
Selena Gomez
Miley Cyrus

My biggest complaint about this list is that it makes every woman seem like every guy wants to be with Miley Cyrus, when her own boyfriend doesn't even want to be with Miley Cyrus.  This is the Miley Cyrus that should've been #1:

Not this one:

Because of this list, and Miley topping it, I would not be surprised to see a large number of long haired girls buzz it off in hopes to make their man more attracted to them, but then end up dumped because of it.  Keep the locks ladies, we like long hair.

Another peev with this list, is that no group of men will agree on it.  This is Maxim, a magazine mostly dominated by male readers, and this Hot 100 is just a list of people that probably 2 people agreed on.  I'd like to see the credentials of the writers of these lists and then see who they have been sleeping with.  Because that's the ultimate credential.  If this list were made by George Clooney, Leo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Colin Farrell, and like one other guy, then we would at least be able to expect something.  But this list is now just anonymous graffiti and no one knows who is pushing who to the top.

I saw we drop the Maxim Hot 100 as Men, and then find a new way to rank attractive women.

Finally, the worst part of this list is that these people were left off of it: Isla Fisher, Gillian Jacobs, Anna Kendrick, Julie Bowen (hotter than Hoda Kotb), Hannah Simone, Rashida Jones, Jennifer Hudson, Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow (somehow was just awarded most perfect body or whatever), January Jones, and so on and so forth.

I don't get it.  I hope we fix this, even though this is the definition of a first world problem.
