The 20th issue of FHM 100 Sexiest is on sale now!
Pop quiz: what do you get if you subtract the age of the UK’s most successful ever 100 Sexiest candidate from the age of 2014’s oldest entrant? No idea? The answer we're looking for is 20: Nigella Lawson (54) – Kelly Brook (34).
Twenty. That’s how many 100 Sexiest lists there have been, including this one.
Looking back over that first list now, there are a few surprises – former Birmingham City MD Karren Brady crept in at 98! – and a lot of blasts from the past. Above Karren, the countdown included the likes of Jenny Powell (number 94), Olivia Newton-John (64), Dani Behr (62) and Goldie Hawn (61).
Two decades on, what’s changed? Obviously, a hell of a lot. Back in ’95, readers had to vote via post or fax (yes, fax was a legitimate voting option). Today, every single one of the hundreds of thousands of votes was registered digitally – on our website, on email, on text, or on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
The names you’ll see in 2014's list may have altered rather drastically over two decades (apart from a couple: over-40s Sandra Bullock and Kate Moss are the sole survivors from the class of ’95), but your tastes aren’t all that different. Actress is still the most popular profession. Brits are still the most-voted-for nationality. And the twenties remain your favourite age group. Plus you still rate your royals (Princess Di was at number 15 in 1995; this year’s list contains one would-be princess and a certain royal sister-in-law).
