Maxim Got It Wrong: VIBE's 10 Hottest Chicks (Right Now)
With all the talk surrounding Maxim’s Hot 100 list, the only question that mattered was this: Who made the top 10? At times the females who were chosen as the most beautiful women on the planet came off as very Disney-esque (Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez were cool in Spring Breakers, and all. But they still have Similac on their breath. And we love us some Miley Cyrus, but is she really taking that no. 1 spot?) and a bit puzzling (Taylor Swift over Beyonce? Bah!). Which is why VIBE put together our own Top 10 parade of bad chicks. View and enjoy.—Keith Murphy (@murphdogg29)

10. NIA LONG
Yep…Ms. Nia “Mutherf**king” Long is still smack dab in the realm of unmitigated hotness. Watching her sizzle on the small screen opposite Don Cheadle on the Showtime’s past season of House of Lies made us all remember that true beauty is indeed ageless.

9. KATE UPTON
The curvy Sports Illustrated model has gone all high fashion on us as she flexes her, um, muscles as the latest cover girl for Vogue. But truth be told, we still like this Kate.

8. JUJU
Cam’ron likes posting flicks of his bootyful fiancée for all the world to see. Let’s hope he keeps up the good work.

7. KAT GRAHAM
She sings, she acts (Vampire Diaries!), and she gives good, drop-dead-gorgeous-face. That’s enough, right?

6. KELLY ROWLAND
It’s all about Kelly’s chocolate-kissed frame, which is pretty much ridiculous. Not sure how she keeps up her remarkably tone body in such pristine shape. But we are all the better for it.

5. KATY PERRY
The only woman who can make an Elmo T-shirt look downright dangerous.

4. DAMARIS LEWIS
Arguably the most underrated swimsuit model on the planet. Just Google her and take our word for it.

3. HANNAH SIMONE
This British-Canadian beauty steals every scene as a regular on the hilarious FOX comedy New Girl. To say that the Indian, German, Italian and Greek Simone head-turner fits into the exotic mode would be lazily cliché. Let’s just say she’s easy on the eyes.

2. BEYONCE
Blue Ivy’s mom can still bring it. Indeed, not much has changed in that department.

1. RIHANNA
It’s not that Rih Rih is the most beautiful girl in the room. It’s the fact that she owns her sexiness like no other female in the game. With C Breezy out of the picture, the adventures of Rihanna will now be turned up to 11. Bad, bad chick.The Vibe Mix Newsletter
