Niedermeir, DEAD! Marmalard, DEAD! Maxim, DEAD!
As I described in an earlier post on this very website, we here in Iraq read a lot of “literature” that would be considered fluff. The real world when we go “outside the wire” is enough mental stimulation for one day, so when a lot of us pick up a magazine we are looking for a diversion from the ugliness we see on a day to day basis. Which brings us to the case of the Maxim Magazine “Hot 100″, according to them, “The definitive list of the world’s most beautiful women.”
Yeah, the usual suspects are all there, Megan Fox, Jessica Alba, Eva Mendes, Marisa Miller, etc. But here coming in at number 93, ahead of Marisa Tomei and Olivia Munn is….wait for it….Michelle Obama?!?
I should have seen it coming. When that magazine first showed up on our shores (it started in Merry Olde’ England) it was fairly apolitical and when they did touch on politics all sides pretty much got sewered the same. Then came 9/11 and the Global War on Terror or the extended extra time away from home fun with guns time, or whatever euphemistic term we are using to describe war today. After 9/11 Maxim pretty much joined the ranks of the bash Bush, he’s an idiot/evil genius, war sucks and lets all smoke a hooka and just get along crowd. Which is fine, if that’s what you like…at least they still had pretty good taste when it came to choosing attractive women to appear in their magazine…until now.
I know everyone has their own taste and preference in what is beautiful and attractive…but come on. She’s better looking than this?!?:
Olivia Munn #96
Politics pure and simple. I will give them this I seem to recall that they put the Bush twins in their ”Hot 100″ when their dad was the President…but they are actually HOT. Maxim you suck.

Judging from your upsetment I’ll bet money Pilar Lastra didn’t make the top 100.
No she did not.
*drooling*
Excuse me, did you say something?
Is this just the top 100 live women, or can dead chicks compete as well, because Cyd Charisse was unexpectedly hot well in to her 40s, and I think she should be in contention http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBHEcck9dek Of course if it’s a list of vapid silicone chicks with 80 points of IQ who get all their acting roles through the casting couch, then probably, no, she wouldn’t fit.
My guess is this post is going to sit here for a long time. I know I’m in no hurry to bump it from the front page. We may have to wait until Wankette’s Weekend Five to see any new activity here, in Threedonia.
Republibot 3.0,
Cyd Charisse was unexpectedly hot well in to her 40s How do you look at Cyd Charisse in her 20’s and not expect her to be hot well into her 40’s?! And let’s not forget another great dancer/actress from that era, Rita Hayworth. How many leading men, producers and directors met their waterloo at her stiletto heels?
Mainly because Cyd’s subject matter – all those fruity musicals – and her wardrobe tended to make her look pretty, but not stunning. Seeing her in full-on sex kitten mode in 1966 was unexpected. Also, I should point out that she’s freakin FORTY FIVE in that clip!
Dumb question perhaps, but you all know I can crank those out with the best. But, and I apologize for resurrecting this subject, is Sarah Palin in that list?
No, Ms Palin is not on that list. Danica Patrick is on there, Ashley Force isn’t. (another punk out IMHO).
In answer to Republibot’s question the Hot 100 in an annual list compiled by Maxim of the (supposed)hottest 100 living women.
For those interested in all the names (like the leading lady from the TV series Chuck)there is a link in the post to the list.
O-l-i-v-i-a M-u-n-n ….
I watch Attack of the Show once in awhile, to see her. Great sense of humor and wit, in addition to the great looks and bod. When they had her appear in a cheaply made Wonder Woman costume on there, my jaw dropped so low I had rug burn on my chin.
Dammit. Living women get all the breaks….I suppose that whole “Living” thing probably excludes cartoon women too? Jessie from Pokemon is smokin’ hot…
Outlaw,tell me Carla Bruni beat MO..
She didn’t beat anyone…she’s not on there that I could see.
Olivia Munn #96!!!!!

There are multiple levels of disturbing at work in that statement.
Besides Josie from “Josie and the Pussycats” was much hotter.
David, have you ever driven by a stripclub that had a sign out front that said, “Dead Nudes”?
Only in a Neil Gaiman comic.
Who the hell is Olivia Munn?
Anyway what do you expect when the mag is leaning towards thinking everyone thinks or likes what they like. Look if you all were Klingons Outlaw Michelle would the IT GIRL….think about it. OHHHHHH…
“..thinking everyone thinks or likes what they like.”
What? Well to you its clear as mud. Scott you need to think a little. Read the sentence OK? Read the whole sentence.
As Leo said to Johnny Caspar in “Miller’s Crossing”,”As clear as mud!”
Pilar Lastra….owe you one,Rufus!
He mentioned her, because I’ve said before that she’s my future ex-wife. And she’s hotter than most of the “hot 100″.
Bah. Josie from Josie and the Pussycats was the weakest part of the show on every level. I think you probably meant “Melody,” Outlaw…
@ David Marcoe – Thank you!
