Watch out Bar Rafaeli, as Donna Feldman is the new Israeli topmodel to watch. The 5'10" beauty bedazzled us in movies like "You Don't Mess With the Zohan" with Adam Sandler, seduced us on the biggest billboards for the latest Christian Audigier swimwear campaign, and just shot the new collection from Hollywod's new master-of-the-red-carpet-dress, Yochi Ben.

Kristina Korsholm wants your swimsuit to do double-duty! Kristina Korsholm is the hottest Danish export to the U.S. since, well, danishes. The in-demand cover girl, author (she wrote a book called " Head Over High Heels") and actress (she just finished the film "Sedon's Rule") has also been editor-in-chief of two magazines. "My mind is wrapped around movies and fashion," she tells FOXNews.com. "I'm a style junkie."

She was fired for her stand against same-sex marriage and nothing else, former Miss California USA Carrie Prejean said Friday, adding that allegations that she did not discharge her duties are false. “I’m here talking to you because of the answer I gave on that stage,” Prejean told TODAY’s Matt Lauer Friday from San Diego. “It’s a test to Americans’ tolerance. It needs to be a two-way street and it’s not. This is about me stating my beliefs about same-sex marriage, and that’s the reason why we’re here today.”

Less than a month after being told by Donald Trump that she can keep her Miss California crown, Carrie Prejean is being fired, Foxnews.com has learned exclusively. K2 Productions, the independent producers of the Miss California USA pageant, under license from Miss Universe, cites continued breach of contract issues as the reason for Prejean's firing. The decision is revealed in documents obtained by FOXNews.com. "This was a business decision, based solely on contract violations," Keith Lewis, executive director of K2 Productions, said in the documents. "After our press conference in New York we had hoped we would be able to...

Supermodel Julia Voth is known for her sexy photospreads and traffic-stopping ad campaigns for fashion heavies like Calvin Klein and Uniqlo. But now Voth is branching out, starring in Justin Timberlake's new MTV series "The Phone" and the film "Bitch Slap," which premiered in Cannes last month. Which is where we come in. Voth just returned from the Cannes beaches, and was eager to show FOXNews.com her Top 10 picks for the sexiest bikinis for this season. We, being naturally generous and inquisitive, were happy to oblige.

The Results Are In FHM’s “100 Sexiest Women in the World 2009” list came out last week. And perennial hottie Anna Kournikova did NOT make it. It’s hard to believe that after 11 years, the voters decided she was no longer worthy. Just seven years ago, she was No. 1—on FHM’s list, that is (her career-high singles ranking was No. 8). Perhaps all that work she’s been doing for the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, like taking kids to the New York Stock Exchange, isn’t sexy. But two tennis players did make the cut: Maria Sharapova and Ana Ivanovic....

I just ran across a listing of the 26 sexiest girls of the 1990s, and I feel that it is a topic I am qualified to write about—as opposed to most of the other topics I write about. As far as I can remember, I took part in the 1990s, at least in a small way. In those days, we were all very interested in supermodels like Christy Turlington (above), and we'd get worked up wondering who would be on the next cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue. I watched "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" with Sarah Michelle Gellar on...

STOCKHOLM — Sweden’s Royal Court says Crown Princess Victoria will marry her boyfriend Daniel Westling in 2010. The court announced the engagement after informing government ministers today at Stockholm’s waterfront royal palace. Thirty-one-year old Victoria is first in line to succeed her father, King Carl XVI Gustaf, to the Swedish throne.

OK. With the 2 year primary followed by the worst election choices for conservatives since Carter/Ford (or was that Clinton/Dole?), it was difficult to find the inspiration to carry on with FR's Conservative Babe of the Week feature. Now we are in a new era. The Age of Obama. It is an era that will attempt to move this great country towards full throated marxism. It is also the time for conservatives to regroup, purge the RINOs, and re-connect with Reaganism to finish the revolution the Gipper started. It will not be easy and it will not be quick. But...

Guys, don’t blow the baby’s milk money to buy an issue. Check them out for free at SI.com. In all, 19 models are featured in this year’s issue, including NBA dancers and tennis stars. Surpringly, there aren’t any huge names this year as far as supermodels (a sign of the tough economic times, I guess.) Danica Patrick has her own spread, though, and is looking pretty damn fine, IMHO. Brooklyn Becker is Andy Roddick's fiancee. This year’s glistening young rookies (tomorrow’s household names) include Kim Cloutier, Cintia Dicker, Lucia Dvorska, Esti Ginzburg, Jessica Hart, Damaris Lewis, Ariel Meredith, and Hilary...

Salma Hayek was so taken aback by the plight of an African woman in Sierra Leone who was unable to breastfeed her child that the star breastfed the newborn herself. The 42-year-old actress, who was nursing her own daughter Valentina at the time, offered to help when the baby's mother stopped producing milk.

NEW YORK - The world knows a lot more about Bar Refaeli today than it did yesterday, including where her tiny tan line falls. Sports Illustrated Swimsuit unveiled the 23-year-old Israeli, who has been romantically linked to Leonardo DiCaprio, as a first-time cover girl on Tuesday. This gig, more than top fashion or entertainment magazines, can be career-altering as it puts a model's face (not to mention, her fantastically toned body) in front of millions of eyeballs, appealing to both men and women, sports fans and fashionistas. It's the cover that matters most, says SI group editor Terry McDonell, but...

But with the 16th President of the United States turning 200 on Thursday, Lincoln says she's a little bit more well-versed this time around. Although Abraham Lincoln was born 1809, Bonnie says her great uncle found out it goes back to 17th century England and two brothers named John and Richard Lincoln. Abraham, she says, was eight generations down from Richard. Bonnie is 13 generations down from John, making them distant cousins. Bonnie says her parents' house in New Jersey has a couple reminders that make the connection. There's an oil painting of Lincoln, a penny collection and an actual...

Miss Indiana crowned new Miss America The 22-year-old student battled laryngitis during competition week Dashing the dreams of 50 other beauty queens, 26-year-old Texan View photos from the competition. Sat., Jan. 24, 2009 In ball gowns, blue jeans and bikinis, 52 young women took to the stage Saturday to compete for the Miss America 2009 title. But only one beauty took the crown — Miss Indiana Katie Stam. While accepting her new position from host Mario Lopez and Miss America 2008 Kirsten Haglund of Michigan, Stam shared her glory with fellow contestants. “I’m gonna thank all these amazing girls behind...

BANGOR, Maine—A Maine TV news anchor who bears a resemblance to the Republican vice presidential nominee says she's been getting "hate mail and nasty phone calls" from viewers who think she's trying to copy Sarah Palin's signature style. Cindy Michaels from WVII-TV has long brown hair that she sometimes wears up in a style similar to Palin's, and she also wears glasses on occasion. Michaels says viewers recently began accusing her of trying to copy Palin's style or, even worse, somehow trying to subliminally sway votes. She says one viewer criticized her as "the Kmart version of Sarah Palin" because...

Welcome to The Hill’s fifth Most Beautiful People list. It is with great pleasure that we unveil the 50 Most Beautiful People of Capitol Hill for 2008. By far the most anticipated issue of summer, this feature gets Hill aides ramped up a year ahead of its publishing date. The paper receives nominations all year long — this year's competition was the most heated yet, with nearly 400 nominations submitted to The Hill for review. At one point the 50 Most Beautiful online mailbox crashed from so many nominations. We thank everyone who participated in the project for the past...

Hooters hotties took to the Broward Center for the Performing Arts on Tuesday night, July 8, for a chance to win Miss Hooter’s International. Of the 130 bronzed bodies from all over the world, only one could be most worthy. Sara Hoots, from San Antonio, TX took the crown. The 12th Annual Miss Hooter’s International event wasn’t just a celebration of beauty, but also the 25th anniversary of the first Hooters, which opened in Clearwater, FL in Oct. 1983.

I don`t choose which news program to watch based on the attractiveness of the news anchor. But it`s fun to contemplate who are the most attractive female anchors, here`s my take on the matter: AMY ROBACH Amy is an anchor and correspondent at NBC. Amy may be my favorite because we both suffer from Coulrophobia, an irrational fear of clowns. MIKA BRZEZINSKI Mika is a television news journalist at MSNBE Mika has an impeccable pedigree (daughter of former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski and sculptor Emilie Anna Benes) and beauty queen looks. Mika is beautiful and intelligent, she always interviews...

PLANO – It's 11:27 a.m. on a Friday, and cars are already circling the parking lot of Twin Peaks on North Central Expressway. Inside the restaurant, small pods of guys – leather biker types, neatly uniformed mechanics and casually dressed businessmen– chat at the door waiting for tables. Other than the buxom servers in lumberjack- checked halter tops and khaki short shorts, there is only one woman besides me in the entire 150-seat restaurant. Sitting at the bar, owner Randy DeWitt surveys the noisy scene and smiles. "What middle-aged guy doesn't like to look at cute girls, listen to rock...

Caught American Idol last night for the first time in a couple years. Gotta say, a few of those gals are pretty pretty. Of course, this is the type of talent guys will tune in for. So who is tops? Here is my pecking order from least to best... 5. Carly....decent, but bad tattoos. Needs to go. 4. Ramiele. Cute face, but as my wife said, she looks like a b*tch 3. Syesha. Very cute. Good pipes too. Looks like Condi Rice and Diana Ross had a love child together. 2. Kristy Lee. The girl next door beauty. Extra points...

Heidi Klum has been left astounded after winning the title of world’s hottest model, because she’s shocked a mother of three children could pick up such an honour. The German beauty beat the likes of Gisele Bundchen and Adriana Lima to reach number one on the models.com list. Gleaming 35-year old Klum said of her triumphant win: "It felt great, especially after having three children. “It's brilliant for all mums because women sometimes worry whether they can still be sexy after having kids or how they're going to be perceived by people for being a mum. “I had employers who...

Feministing brings us today's outraged-over-nothing report, with Taco Bell's Mysogynist Hot Sauce (I'm not kidding). The feminists are complaining about Taco Bell's new ad campaign, called "Direct Daniella", in which they've partnered up with Sports Illustrated to give some lucky customer the chance to be the photographer in a Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Edition photo shoot. They are, of course, offended and simply OUTRAGED!: "One of our readers sent us an email recently, rightfully confused as to why Taco Bell's hot sauce packets are now printed with a website that leads you to perhaps the creepiest ad campaign ever. "Direct Daniella"...

Check out these recent Ukrainian Army Cadets....Where to I go to enlist??

Since the heated battles of the primary and the fight to keep the leftists from scuttling our successful mission in Iraq have occupied most of my Freeptime, I completely forgot to start the 'End of Summer' Beer and Babes thread. Well, this year, we'll have to settle for the Thanksgiving/Christmas/New Years edition. The beers tend to be darker and the clothes a bit more encapsulating this time of year, but there is no more joyous time of the year to celebrate some of the finest things in life; namely beer and babes, and think about sunny places during the cold...

Usually, I do my own research to find the CBOTW to feature. This time, I found one that was already prepared like a buffet line at Royal Fork. Anyhow, we will forgive Mary for leaning towards the Huckster, she is still fairly young. Enjoy... Hat tip to the folks at Fort Hard Knox

OK, after examining the pictures of the republican babes that made it onto The Hill's 50 most Beautiful People list, I have selected the one that I believe is tops (some stiff competition, mind you). See here for the rankings: http://thehill.com/cover-stories/the-50-most-beautiful-people-on-capitol-hill---top-10-2007-07-24.html The winner is Maggie Sheely. She is a 30 year old from the Hershey, PA, and fellers.....she is single. She worked as a teacher, and for the circus before moving on to the real circus in Wash. DC to work for Congressman Geoff Davis. From the Hill: We know what you’re thinking. After dealing with children, clowns and animals,...

The Hot TV Mom Hall of Fame exists for one reason only: to honor the medium's sexiest and most attractive fictional mothers. Not the best moms, the coolest moms, the funniest moms or the moms who baked the best brownies. Just the M's you'd most L to F. It's also by no means a comprehensive list. As long as the TV industry keeps producing impossibly attractive mother characters, (and let's pray they do), there'll always be room for more among these immortals of the game: 1950s Donna Stone, The Donna Reed Show Back in TV's equivalent of the Dead Ball...

From her website: In 2006, Congresswoman Mary Bono resoundingly swept the 45th District Congressional election, earning her fifth full term in office. Congresswoman Bono was first elected to Congress in 1998, after a special election was held to fill the seat left vacant by her late husband, The Honorable Sonny Bono, Member of Congress. Congresswoman Bono represents California's 45th Congressional District, which is located in southeastern California's Coachella Valley region and Inland Empire. The district is encompassed by a diverse geography, including deserts, mountains and agricultural space, as well as the Colorado River and the Salton Sea. Rep. Bono serves...

When it comes to being sexy, Victoria’s Secret writes the book, or at least takes the pictures for the book. So now, to go along with their book they have published their list of “what’s sexy. “ Monica Mitro, a spokeswoman for the intimate apparel company, says it’s not just how a person looks that creates sex appeal, USA Today reported on Thursday. “(Sexy) is about how you are as a person, “ Mitro said. The sexiest female athlete is Indy Racing League’s Danica Patrick. The speedy brunette has turned a lot of heads both on and off the track...

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - Jason Pellegrino (an 8.2 on the attractiveness scale) says the problem with Internet dating services is not enough really hot-looking people. So he and a business partner have created HotEnough.org, a sort of online version of Studio 54, the exclusive '70s disco where gaining admission was a pitiless Darwinian exercise. HotEnough.org is for "fit, good-looking" people. Prospective members must submit pictures and must be rated an 8 or higher by people already in the club. Once they're in, they are permitted to e-mail other "hotties" for $9.95 a month. "It's definitely hard to get through that...

She runs the Atlas Shrugs 2000 blog. Obviously a Ayn Rand fan. http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/ Enemy of jihadis the world over. John Bolton fan, as well. She defended Ann Coulter against the PC conservatives' hissy fit over Ann's apt comments at CPAC. She also is the former publisher of the NY Observer. Anyhow, just stumbled upon her recently and see she is quite worthy of Conservative Babe of the week. On to the pctures...

What makes someone sexy? It could be their eyes. Their legs. Or the way they talk. Or smile. TV certainly has had its share of hot characters who have made our hearts skip a beat. With the most romantic day of the year rapidly approaching (that would be Valentine's Day), now's the perfect time for my list of the 15 sexiest characters in TV history. After checking out the list, tell me if you liked it, hated it or wanted other people on it. I'd love hearing from ya... 1. Mary Ann Summers (Gilligan's Island) Why her? Ginger, Schminger! Mary...

Miss California Jacquelynne Fontaine and Miss Pennsylvania Emily Wills were the winners Saturday as preliminary competition drew to a close for the 2007 Miss America Pageant. The televised finals and crowning of Miss America will be Monday at the Aladdin Resort & Casino. Fontaine, 24, of Moorpark, Calif., won a $2,000 scholarship for her vocal performance of "Vissi d'arte" from the opera "Tosca" in the talent competition. She is a music and vocal arts major at the University of Southern California and aspires to earn a doctorate in music. Wills, 24, of Beaver, Pa., won $1,000 in the swimsuit competition....

Blackanthem Military News, WASHINGTON, D.C. - A 22-year-old college student recently traded her beauty-queen tiara for the Kevlar helmet she'll wear when she deploys with her Minnesota Army National Guard unit to Iraq. For the past six months, Jessica Gaulke's life has been about college classes and making appearances as Minneapolis' 2007 Aquatennial Queen of the Lakes, but soon it will focus on helping lead Iraq to a peaceful democracy. The Augsburg College senior studying sociology will be deploying as Spc. Jessica Gaulke with the 2nd Battalion, 147th Assault Helicopter Battalion. The unit is scheduled to start training at Fort...

<p>Ladies and gentlemen, well gentlemen, well blokes really, it's that time of the year again, the naming of the Sexiest Female Sports Star Of 2006.</p> <p>Much pain has been taken to scrutinise the talents of the many fine felines of the sporting world and many Beavis and Butthead type conversations have gone on among the Sexy Sports Stars Panel (well, the male half).</p>

From the Wash Post, 2004. Eager to promote her career as a Hollywood actress, Laurie Coleman, wife of Republican Sen. Norm Coleman of Minnesota, has authorized our exclusive publication of photos that show her in glamorous, provocative poses -- just in time for next week's Republican National Convention, where her husband, coincidentally, is among the operatives striving to add sizzle and star power to President Bush's coronation. "A little edgy," the onetime model called the publicity pix, "but relatively tame by Hollywood standards." They include boudoir shots accented with the requisite bustier, stockings, garters and four-poster bed. "Honestly, I've done...

The finale of the Miss World contest is Saturday night, and the betting odds are starting to take shape. There is no clear favorite, but Miss Venezuela is the front-runner at the moment, no doubt because she won the Miss Beach competition, which automatically put her into the finals. That's an impressive accomplishment, but frankly I don't buy it. I still say it's going to be a Caribbean final. (I know, Venezuela is on the Caribbean, but I'm talking islands.) If I'm wrong, the current betting odds favor Miss Australia, but again I don't believe it. If you're looking for...

The list is lengthy. From the highly sensual Ursula Andress as Honey Rider to the electric Halle Berry as Jinx, every James Bond film is known as much for one gorgeous female character as it is for its high tech action and suave sophistication. But when it comes to the most recent selection, the casting folks hope they have broken the vault with Caterina Murino. The exotic beauty plays Solange in the latest Bond endeavor, Casino Royale, the first of Ian Fleming's wondrous Bond books. Somehow, the beautiful Murino managed only a fourth place finish in the 1996 Miss Italy...

WSVN-Channel 7's Elita Loresca won the title ''America's Sexiest Newscaster'' in an online vote by readers of FHM magazine. Loresca is pictured in the October issue -- in rather revealing attire. ''Elita has done more than Ace Ventura to protect South Florida,'' the magazine quips. ``And she has also done it with a better figure than Al Roker.'' Loresca, 29, born in the Philippines, is a former obit writer for The Orange County Register, FHM says. Among Loresca's quotes: ``People in Miami embrace curves. . . . Here, I can wear a cute sweater and still be professional.'' She also...

Karin Agness is a born leader. A senior at the University of Virginia (UVA), she refuses to “subscribe to the victim mentality.” She is a staff member and columnist for The Virginia Advocate, a Lawn Resident, first year mentor, and member of the College Republicans and Students for the Preservation of Honor. She's also the founder of the Network of enlightened Women (N.e.W.) and served as president of UVA's chapter in 2004-2005. When asked why she decided to start N.e.W. Karin says, “While interning in DC, I had the opportunity to spend time with other conservative young women. I found...

Who's the hottest news (or political) Chica? Battle it out right here. Just a little something we can all be happy about. This is my first forum topic. Have fun guys. My candidates (at the risk of leaving some off): Kiran Chetry, Megyn Kendall, Rebecca Gomez, Dagen McDowell, Alisyn Camerota, Patti Ann Browne, Jane Skinner, and Rudi Bakhtiar with honorable mentions to Juliet Huddy and Laurie Dhue. You MAY notice those names have a common thread. Oh, and just in case I forgot: Kiran Chetry. :-) "The vice of capitalism is that there is an unequal share of the blessings;...

AP) MIAMI A Danish model accused of hitting a flight attendant on a plane from Amsterdam to Miami will participate in an anger management program under an agreement announced Tuesday. May Andersen, a former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, will be allowed to take the four-to five-hour course either in New York, where she has an apartment, or in her home of Copenhagen, Denmark. If she completes the course successfully, the charges will be dropped, Assistant State Attorney Carolyn Zegeer said. Andersen was charged with simple battery, resisting arrest without violence and disorderly intoxication after the arrest in April. She was...

High heels race in Moscow. A girl attends a high heels race in Moscow, capital of Russia, July 8, 2006. Girls took part in the race wearing high heels with required minimum height of 8 centimeters to compete for a total bonus of 100.000 roubles (3,726 dollars). The race was held by a Russian fashion magazine.

The gym that brought New Yorkers “Cardio Striptease” has dreamed up “Stiletto Strength,” a workout to get women in shape to wear the highest of heels. At a recent lunch-time session at Crunch gym near Times Square, dancer Amber Efe demonstrated how to strut like a cat-walk model, pivoting on six-inch heels that would challenge even the most ardent follower of shoe king Manolo Blahnik. “Imagine you’re at the bar, raise one hand high like you’re holding your drink,” she told the class, music pounding as she acted the part of a club-goer working through a crowd. “Don’t spill the...

(CBS) What's a better title: "Double Olympic Gold Medalist," or "World's Sexiest Athlete?" Three-time Olympic swimmer Amanda Beard has the seemingly wonderful problem of deciding. FHM magazine dubs beard the sexiest athlete on the planet in its August issue and Beard, whose modeling career has taken off, has an extensive photo spread in the issue. She chatted about it all in The Early Show plaza Thursday with co-anchors Hannah Storm and Rene Syler. Beard, who has won seven medals in all, holds the world record in the 200 meter breaststroke. She told Storm and Syler she loves modeling, but intends...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (July 1, 2006) -- Faith Hill is country music's most beautiful woman, according to a reader poll released Friday in Country Weekly magazine. "To thousands of fans, Faith embodies the ideal woman who really 'has it all'-- classic beauty, a superstar career, a great marriage to Tim McGraw and three lovely daughters," the article says. "No other country star projects a sexier, more stunning image." Her husband, McGraw, finished No. 4 in the magazine's recent poll on country's sexiest man, with Keith Urban topping the list. Rounding out the top 5 most beautiful women in order were Sara...

Tank tops, flip-flops, bare flesh and cleavage. It's the unofficial uniform of the summer interns, gaggles of college-age women and recent graduates who invade buttoned-down conservative Washington every summer, bringing a large dose of hotitude to offices from Capitol Hill to K Street. They're known as "skinterns." Those who think "belly shirts" are career wear. If the devil wears Prada, the skinterns wear nada. As if Washington wasn't sweltering enough. "All the guys I worked with here, they would love it when the weather got warm for that very reason. 'Ooohhh, the interns are coming,' " said Elizabeth Conatser, a...
