Meanwhile raunchy singer Rihanna slips one place to number three, while British American model Emily Ratajkowski is the highest new entry at number four courtesy of her memorable contribution to Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines video.
Her inclusion means Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco, last year's number four, drops down one place to number five.
R&B star Beyoncé makes the highest leap from last year's list, climbing 12 places from number 19 to the comparatively lofty number seven.

Lawrence, who dates British actor Nicholas Hoult, has become a huge star on the back of her role as Katniss in the Hunger Games series, and landed a best actress Oscar last year for Silver Linings Playbook.

Quite a conundrum: Countdown brainbox Rachel Riley is the highest riser, shooting up 73 places to number 17
Dan Jude, the editor of the FHM 100 Sexiest supplement which is published with the magazine tomorrow said: 'She's run away with the title this year and it's no great surprise.
'Not only is she the most in-demand actress on the planet, but men the world over have fallen in love with her kooky charm.'
Keegan, whose character Tina McIntyre will leave Corrie in May, said of her success: 'I'm so flattered. I believe that being sexy isn't wearing lots of heavy make-up or having the perfect hair or figure - it's about self-confidence, being comfortable with yourself, smiling and being happy.'
