The FHM Magazine has named its list of the world's Top 100 Sexiest Women in 2012. The list, featured in its May issue, is topped by UK's X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos.  The list is based on votes garnered by fans. Also on the top ten in the list is: Cheryl Cole, Rihanna, Rosie Jones, Georgia Salpa, Katy Perry, Megan Fox, Keeley Hazell, Mila Kunis and Emily Atack. Last year, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley placed top.


Pippa Middleton has also made it to the list, ranking eleventh. A tape by former N-Dubz singer Tulisa Contostavlos was leaked onto the internet earlier this year, which had brought the X-Factor judge back into the spotlight. The footage of the video shows her performing a sex act on former boyfriend Justin Edwards.


As reported by TheSun, Tulisa said of her win: "Thank you so much for voting for me. It's a true honour and definitely a lovely confidence boost. I'm proud of me and I am who I am. I know that I'm marmite and I wouldn't wanna be anything less or anything more, I'm just myself.

"The FHM shoot is without a doubt the sexiest thing I've ever done.


"I believe in embracing being sexy but I'm not one to agree with stripping off for the cameras, I like to be more subtle than that as these shots show.


"This is an award that will stay on the mantelpiece probably for the rest of my life."
