Michelle Keegan is the Sexiest Women in the World, says a popular men's magazine. The British actress and model has tipped celebrities like Beyonce, Jennifer Lawrence, Margot Robbie, Kendall Jenner and many more to achieve the number one spot in the magazine's 2015 list of 100 Sexiest Women in the World. Let's find out more about the beauty.

This is not the first time Keegan has been included in the FHM's Sexiest Women in the World list. The 27-year-old is a hot favourite with the men's magazine and was at the number second spot last year. She is a popular face on television and is also known for her roles in the soap opera “Coronation” and BBC drama “Ordinary Lies.” According to Hollywood Life, Keegan started dating television star Mark Wright in 2012 and the couple got engaged in 2013.

However the men's magazine has received a lot of criticism for choosing Keegan over other more popular celebrities like Beyonce and Jennifer Lawrence. “Who voted for these women?? Never heard of this Keegan in my life,” wrote Kathy-Ann Fotos on FHM's page where the list is announced. “Sorry! Sorry! Sorry! That's what I say about this year's List,” another user Derek StJohn wrote on the website. He also added asked the magazine to justify how can “Kendall Jenner be sexier than Emilia Clarke” and added that “none of the women on the list are sexier than Margot Robbie.”

Following the criticism over the choice of Keegan as the Sexiest Woman in the World, the magazine then released a “video proof” that their choice of Keegan is right. One of the videos provided by the website shows Keegan having bath semi-naked. But the videos provided by FHM did not help stop the criticism Keegan has received.

Fans are annoyed that the magazine has placed Queen Bey at number 19 spot while Jennifer Lopez was chosen to be at no. 95 position. “Burn” singer Ellie Goulding gained the number 42 spot while controversial singer Miley Cyrus was at number 32. “Dark Horse” songstress Katy Perry bagged the no. 25 spot while Rihanna was placed a little higher at number 23.

What came as a surprise to many fans was that FHM kept Taylor Swift and Britney Spears were kept at a higher rank at 15 and 12 respectively than Beyonce. The top ten list however includes Emilia Clarke (“Game of Thrones”), Margot Robbie, Kendall Jenner, Jennifer Lawrence and Ariana Grande. Check out the complete list here.
