IMAGES: The Hottest Women Right Now!

Complex Magazine has released its list of the 100 Hottest Women Right Now from across entertainment, sports and fashion. We bring you the top 20!

From supermodels to superstars, the candidates who scored a spot on men's lifestyle magazine Complex's hot 100 list are undoubtedly among the sexiest in the world and, in the publication's own words, "running pop culture in 2013".

In the following pages, here are the best of the best who managed to edge out stiff competition and make it to the top 20.

1. Rihanna

The sultry Barbadian songstress is no stranger to such 'sexy' lists and topping this one is just another feather in her cap. RiRi loves flaunting her stunning looks in the skimpiest of outfits -- and sometimes even less!

In at Number Two we have the Mad Men actress, with her beautiful blue eyes and mindblowing curves.

In addition to her Oscar-worthy talents, Jennifer is also quite the blonde bombshell -- and everbody's noticed.

Most desirable, sexiest, hottest -- any such list is incomplete without this bootylicious yummy mummy, whose stardom knows no bounds.

The pretty 36-year-old actress fought off competition from much younger rivals to claim fifth position.

She'll be turning 21 next month, and if her fashon choices are anything to go by, the former Disney cutie is consciously cultivating a more mature image.

The diminutive female rapper has curves that far outsize her tiny frame -- and she plays them up to the hilt!

You probably know her better as Daenerys Targaryen from the HBO series Game of Thrones -- British beauty Emilia comes in at eight.

She was voted 'Hottest Woman in the World' last month by Maxim Magazine, and rates rather highly with Complex too -- Miley's shed her child star image and is now quite the sex symbol.

She's heavily pregnant with her first child, but lest anyone forget, the reality star is a sex symbol first and rounds off the magazine's top 10.

The Sports Illustrated stunner and fashion's current darling comes in at 11. If Kate's not hot, nothing is!

She cultivates a wholesome image, but that only seems to add to Emma's appeal -- sometimes less (skinshow) is more.

Watson's waifish namesake, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 actress Emma Stone follows her into the list at 13.

The petite brunette is quite a favourite when it comes to her hotness quotient and nabs 14th spot.

She's a Grammy Award-winning singer, but with her smashing good looks and statuesque frame, Taylor could well have been a model.

South African siren Charlize, easily one of the most attractive women in the world, came in at sixteen.

The American basketball babe, whose athletic bod could put any actress or model to shame, was 17th on the Complex list.

The 26-year-old American singer and model made her presence felt at 18.

With her rock-hard abs and toned, full figure, it's hardly surprising that Serena made the cut.

Rounding off the top 20 we have Beyonce's lesser known sister Solange, who is also a singer, deejay and businesswoman.
