The 100 women we’re most thankful for in 2011
2011 has been a wonderful year in the sexy female celebrity department, and as such there were many women that stood out for one reason or another. With this being the month of Thanksgiving we figured now would be a good time to take a look back at those women and the reasons they captivated us.
Some of these ladies we loved because they did something interesting, some we loved because they did something silly, some we loved because the drama surrounding them was very entertaining, some we loved because they annoyed the shit out of us (yes, we like that), and some we loved just because they were so damn sexy.
These are the 100 women we have been most thankful to have had in our lives in 2011. -Douglas Charles -
100 Hope Solo
We appreciate Hope for wearing this short, sexy dress today on The View, for getting naked in ESPN The Magazine, for going on Dancing With The Stars, oh, and for being one hell of a soccer player. -
99 Marion Cotillard
Thank you Marion Cotillard for always being so classy, yet still being sexy every time you do a photo shoot. Oh, and for going topless in an upcoming movie (classily, I'm sure). -
98 Aly Michalka
We give thanks to Aly Michalka for being such a great bikini model, for being the hottest fake cheerleader of 2011, and for moving so much closer to becoming the superstar we know she is destined to be. -
97 Frances Bean Cobain
Thank you, Frances Bean Cobain, for reminding us of your existence and for growing up into a stunning woman. -
96 Kaley Cuoco
We give thanks to Kaley Cuoco for making us laugh on a weekly basis while turning us on at the same time, and, most importantly, for posing for Allure's annual naked issue. -
94 Daisy Lowe
We're thankful for Daisy Lowe for, much like like Frances Bean Cobain, being the daughter of a famous musician and growing up into a fine looking woman, but also for using that quality to become a renowned fashion model, and, oh yeah, for posing naked for Playboy this year. -
93 Maria Menounos
Big thanks to Maria Menounos for always making the red carpet sexy, regardless of who she's interviewing, for looking like this in a bikini, and for being a great sports fan and helping us get through the NBA lockout. -
92 Lais Ribeiro
We'd like to thank Lais Ribeiro for being one of the latest in the long and sexy line of women to begin plying her trade for Victoria's Secret in 2011. -
91 Karissa Shannon
Thank you, Karissa Shannon, for being such a fame whore that you decided that you'd do pretty much anything to get and maintain our attention in 2011. Double thanks for knocking it off about halfway through the year. -
90 Sasha Jackson
We give thanks to Sasha Jackson for walking on the beach with a photographer to chronicle said walk on the beach and in turn alert us to your very existence. Way to keep the tradition of actresses we've never heard of using bikinis and fake paparazzi pics to get your name out there. -
89 Demi Lovato
We're thankful for Demi Lovato showing us that the way to empowerment is taking pics of yourself in a bikini and posting them on Twitter. If only more 18 year-old girls could learn from her example. -
88 Janet Jackson
We appreciate Janet Jackson for still being out there showing the world why that wardrobe malfunction back in the day was one of the greatest moments in TV history. And for not being the Jackson who died. -
87 Carla Gugino
Thank you, Carla Gugino, for continuing to be a highly-underrated actress/piece of ass who is so versatile that she can pose for photo shoots feeling herself up yet still manage to land kids' movie roles and somehow fly under the radar. -
86 Poppy Montgomery
Thank you, Poppy Montgomery for letting Esquire take pictures of you and that sweet, sweet keister of yours. -
85 Katrina Bowden
-
84 Sara Jean Underwood
We're very thankful that Sara Jean Underwood is now on G4TV's Attack of the Show so she has a forum to wrestle another woman in oatmeal and do sexy cosplay over and over and over. -
82 Anne Hathaway
Thank you to Anne Hathaway for being chosen to play the role of Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, helping to extend our love of cosplay well into 2012. -
81 Adrianne Palicki
-
80 Demi Moore
Big ups to Demi Moore for her lack of contribution to the whole "Did Ashton sleep with her or didn't she?" nonsense that none of us should really give a shit about in the first place (but we still do). -
79 Charlize Theron
Thank you to Charlize Theron for taking a look at episodes like Demi and Ashton and saying thanks, but no thanks to marriage. Oh, and for also contributing to our love of cosplay. -
78 Rihanna
Much love to Rihanna for being named the sexiest woman alive, for becoming the face (and body) of Armani, and for doing sexy photo shoot after sexy photo shoot after sexy photo shoot... -
77 Trish Stratus
We give thanks to Trish Stratus for seemingly being the only former WWE Diva to still actually have her shit together and look great while doing it. Even if she did overdo it a bit on the spray tan during Tough Enough. -
76 Maryse Ouellet
We also give thanks to Maryse Ouellet, who for some reason, almost never appears on WWE television shows anymore despite being (in one man's opinion) the sexiest WWE Diva on the planet at the moment. And also for doing more sexy photo shoots than the rest of the Divas combined. -
75 Alyssa Campanella
Thank you to Alyssa Campanella for being such an outstanding representative of the United States as this year's Miss USA (even if it was revealed during the Miss Universe pageant that she isn't really a redhead). Oh, and thank you for those lovely lingerie pictures. -
74 January Jones
We appreciate January Jones because we know how hard it must be to maintain a completely bitch attitude 24 hours a day and look like you hate life as much as she does by never, ever, ever smiling, and for being told that you "suck at acting," and also for the fact that the still yet unnamed father of the child she had this year was last rumored to be Ashton Kutcher. -
73 Kim Kardashian
We give thanks to Kim Kardashian for showing just how well one can move from unknown porn star to mainstream celebrity with just a few, shrewd, calculated moves. -
72 Petra Ecclestone
And thank you to Petra Ecclestone for having an even bigger ego (and wallet) than Kim Kardashian. Welcome to America. -
71 Jasmine Waltz
We're thankful for Jasmine Waltz, who restored our faith in humanity by proving that you really do need more than a leaked sex tape to become famous. Even if she does look freaking amazing when she's washing her car in a bikini top and short shorts. -
70 Barbara Palvin
We're thankful that with barely 18 year-old Barbara Palvin the future of bikini modeling appears to be quite secure. -
69 Christina Ricci
We appreciate the fact that Christina Ricci appeared on our TV sets in an attempt to bring the Mad Men vibe to network television with her show Pan Am by wearing those awesome stewardess outfits from days gone by. -
68 Elisha Cuthbert
Thank you Elisha Cuthbert for returning to network television with her show Happy Endings and for looking so damn good while doing it. -
67 Megan Fox
We appreciate Megan Fox for sharing with us her philosophy on having kids, for removing your Marylin Monroe tattoo, for proving that you don't use botox, oh, and for being Megan Fox (and posing in lingerie for Armani). -
66 Emmanuelle Chriqui
We give thanks to Emmanuelle Chriqui for being so sexy on Entourage all these years. We shall miss that. -
65 Emma Stone
Thank you to Emma Stone for briefly being Hollywood's new It Girl (let's hope it continues) and for being the inspiration for Jim Carrey to creep the fuck out of half the people in America. -
64 Catrinel Menghia
We'd like to say thank you to Catrinel Menghia for being the hottest Romanian smokeshow on the planet (even if she was robbeddid lose in the Sports Illustrated bikini model search). -
63 Bar Refaeli
We're thankful that Bar Refaeli ended her relationship with Leo DiCaprio (again). But really we're just thankful that she looks the way she does and knows how to use it. Again, and again, and again... -
62 Helen Mirren
Thank you to Helen Mirren for proving that, at least to some people, being sexy is not defined by your age. -
61 Cindy Crawford
And thank you to Cindy Crawford for holding up so well some 20 odd years after we first fell in lust with you. -
60 Heidi Klum
And while we're at it, thank you to Heidi Klum for doing the same thing, and for posing naked to promote your TV show, and for arguably being the greatest mom on the planet. -
59 Diane Lane
-
58 Halle Berry
The same goes for Halle Berry as well, who proved it more than once this year by heading to beach and killing it in a bikini. -
57 Monica Bellucci
Take pretty much everything I said about the last five women and apply it to Monica Bellucci as well. -
56 Miley Cyrus
Shifting back to the younger set, we'd like to thank Miley Cyrus for calming things down a little bit this year in the leaked photo department (now that she's 18), for acting in her underwear, and for being more classy in general yet still showing us some sideboob now and then. -
55 AnnaSophia Robb
We are glad that in AnnaSophia Robb there still seems to be beautiful young female actresses that can be good at what they do and become successful without all of the shenanigans of some "other" young female stars. -
54 Abigail Clancy
We're thankful that Abigail Clancy is still in the running for sexiest WAG on the planet and that we now know that she likes to take naked pictures of herself with her phone. -
53 Brooklyn Decker
We give thanks for Brooklyn Decker for also being one of the sexiest WAGs on the planet, for this mind-blowingly sexy video, and for this magical bikini top. -
52 Christina Milian
Thank you, Christina Milian, for wearing this bikini and showing that having a kid isn't the end of a woman being sexy. -
51 Ali Larter
-
50 Doutzen Kroes
And thank you, Doutzen Kroes, for proving that super hot lingerie and bikini models can still be super hot lingerie and bikini models after having kids as well. -
49 Miranda Kerr
-
48 Emma Watson
We're thankful that Emma Watson has been one of the few female child stars to have grown up into one hell of a good-looking woman. And for realizing that short haircut she was sporting really wasn't working. -
47 Brooke Mueller
Thank you, Brooke Mueller for playing your part in one of the most epic meltdowns we've ever seen from a celebrity. -
45 Kristen Stewart
Thank you, Kristen Stewart, for all your wisdom, advice, and for being such a special little snowflake. -
44 Kristin Cavallari
We give thanks to Kristin Cavallari for adding to the drama that is Jay Cutler by dating him, getting engaged to him, breaking up with him, then sort of dating him again. -
43 Alyssa Miller
We are grateful to Alyssa Miller for being of the best Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue rookies we've seen in a long time and for proving it by doing one sexy lingerie photo shoot after another this year. -
42 Chrissy Teigen
We are also grateful to another Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, Chrissy Teigen, for overcoming her tremendous fear of swimming to give us photos like these, and also for being so fun to follow on Twitter. -
41 Jennifer Lawrence
We thank Jennifer Lawrence for continuing to grow into becoming one of the best actresses in the business, and for playing Mystique and wearing that awesome bodypaint in X-Men: First Class (mostly for that last thing). -
40 Ciara
Thank you to Ciara for continuing to be one of the few female singers we'd pay to see in concert even if we were deaf and couldn't hear a word you were singing. And for looking hot in a bikini. -
39 Selena Gomez
We give thanks to Selena Gomez for exceeding all of our expectations (except for the dating Bieber part). We'd probably go see you in concert as well. -
37 Lindsay Lohan
Where to begin with Lindsay Lohan? Thank you for hours upon hours of entertainment as you traversed the legal system of the state of California, skirting the law and not letting them bring you down. For doing one sexy photo shoot after another to pay the bills. And thank you in advance for reportedly posing for Playboy. -
36 Elisabetta Canalis
We're thankful to Elisabetta Canalis for no longer dating George Clooney giving us back at least one fantasy in our lives and for going on Dancing With The Stars (briefly) thus making that fantasy even richer. Oh, and for getting naked for PETA. We liked that too. -
35 Eva Longoria
Thanks as well to Eva Longoria for ending her relationship with Tony Parker, adding one more fantasy back into our systems, and also for your wardrobe malunction on The Late Show with David Letterman. -
34 Olivia Wilde
Completing the trifecta of fantasies we're glad to have once again, we're very grateful to Olivia Wilde for ending her relationship with her husband, though she was linked to Bradley Cooper and Justin Timberlake at varying points this year. Plus we're not real happy that she faked her nude scene in The Change Up, but we'll let it slide. -
33 Stacy Keibler
Thank you to Stacy Keibler for BEGINNING to date George Clooney reinforcing our belief that he really is THE MAN and reminding us of your sexy existence because frankly, we'd almost forgotten about you. -
32 Nina Senicar
Thank you, Nina Senicar, for being so sexy when you wear a bikini that someone thought it would smart to give you your own line of them. -
31 Monika Pietrasinska
-
30 Irina Shayk
We're thankful that Irina Shayk is so good at modeling shoes, lingerie, denim, and bikinis; for working out in spandex; for posing for magazines; for having an awesome Web site; for landing the cover of Sports Illustrated; and for shortening her name from Shaykhlislamova to just Shayk. -
27 Sofia Vergara
We're very grateful to Sofia Vergara for making her way from Colombia to America and being talented enough to star on a hit TV show so we can be blessed with photo shoots like this and this, and for having such a thick accent that it makes creating mashups like this so much fun. -
26 Cintia Dicker
We'd like to thank Cintia Dicker for keeping all of our ginger-haired fantasies alive by being pretty much the only well-known red-haired representative in the bikini and lingerie modeling community. -
25 Amber Heard
We're grateful to Amber Heard for also trying to bring some of that Mad Men sexiness to prime time TV (even though it failed), for becoming a model for Guess, and oh yeah, for letting us all know that she's down with the lay-hay-adies. -
24 Rashida Jones
Thank you to Rashida Jones for being so entertaining on TV, for doing a sexy photo shoot, and for saying that she wants to "do something naked somewhere." But mostly thanks for the visuals that last one created. -

17 Estella Warren
Thank you Estella Warren for letting the world know that you and your underrated hotness still exist (even if it was for doing some real batshit stuff). -
16 Vanessa Hudgens
-
15 Jennifer Aniston
We're grateful that Jennifer Aniston still hasn't settled down, or had kids, because if she had we'd be missing out on so much entertainment. And for still always looking like you need a sweater. -
14 LeAnn Rimes
We're thankful that LeAnn Rimes is on Twitter so that we know that she isn't sick, just a tad touched in the head. -
13 Nicki Minaj
We'd like to thank Nicki Minaj for proving to the world that white people aren't the only ones capable of doing crazy-ass shit in order to get attention. -
11 Paz de la Huerta
We are thankful to have Paz de la Huerta in our lives. From her work on Boardwalk Empire, to her propensity to pose naked or almost naked in magazines, to her videos for Agent Provocateur, to her just generally nasty attitude and sexiness, she makes the world a more fun place to live. -
10 Blake Lively
-
9 Pippa Middleton
Many thanks to Pippa Middleton for making one of the most insufferable events in recent memory actually turn out to be rather sexy. -

1 Kate Upton
And who else could we possibly be more thankful for in 2011 other than Kate Upton? From the bikini modeling to the lingerie modeling to milking cows while wearing a bikini to looking so good in slow-motion to your sexy ad campaign to your willingness to give one of our boys at Guyism a chance, you truly were the woman we were most thankful for in 2011.
