Jennifer Lopez has been named the world’s sexiest celebrity, based on a sentiment analysis of Tweets around highlighted ‘Sexiest People Alive’ lists over the last year.
The research, conducted as part of the Self-Made Celebs study, showed that J.Lo has seen the highest influx of positive Tweets over the last year, compared to any other celebrity featured on recent Maxim and People ‘Sexiest Person Alive’ lists.

Other sexy women who proved popular with fans included Mexican actress Eliza Gonzalez and Riverdale starlet Madalaine Petsch, while the analysis revealed that Russian model Irina Shayk saw the least support on social media over the last year, compared to other celebs.
People magazine has been naming annual lists of the ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ since 1985, while Maxim has been crowning the ‘Sexiest Woman Alive’ via their ‘Hot 100’ since 2000.
