Vergara Named The World’s Most Desirable Woman

Move over Blake Lively! There’s a new most desirable woman in the world… And, her name’s Sofia Vergara.

Ask Men has conducted a round up of the “Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2012,” with the 39-year-old Colombian bombshell—who ranked as one of the best dressed starlets at this years SAG Awards—taking the top spot after more than one million readers cast their votes.

The men’s website says when it comes to Colombian imports, none are more in demand than Vergara—who ranked No. 3 on the 2011 list. Despite the Modern Family star’s obvious assets, says Ask Men, she’s one very funny woman.

Meanwhile, Selena Gomez storms the chart at No. 14. The 19-year-old half-Mexican actress/singer may be a former Disney Channel star, but she’s quickly become tween royalty, thanks to her high profile relationship with Justin Bieber. And, she’s a star in her own right with hit singles like “Hit the Lights” and roles like Gomez’s upcoming image-shattering part in a spring-break-themed film.

In all, this year’s list includes a large Latina contingent. Here’s a look at the Latinas making the final cut:

No. 1 Sofia Vergara
No 14 Selena Gomez
No. 19 Lea Michele
No. 24 Jessica Alba
No. 34 Jessica Gomes
No. 49 Penelope Cruz
No. 52 Jordana Brewster
No. 53 Gisele Bundchen
No. 54 Eva Mendes
No. 64 Leryn Franco
No. 66 Aubrey Plaza
No. 68 Arianny Celeste
No. 71 Adriana Lima
No. 83 Zoe Saldana
No. 84 Camilla Belle
No. 91 Alessandra Ambrosio
