Sultry singer fancied to fare best of rest behind Cheryl Cole and Megan Fox
With Cheryl Cole and Megan Fox hot favourites for the FHM Sexiest Women 2010 title, Paddy Power are offering odds on who will fare best of the rest and make Frankie Sandford of The Saturdays the market leader at 7/2.
The singer has just beaten off competition from Fox and Cole to top Zoo Magazine's 100 Hottest Bodies poll and looks very much a girl on the rise here.
Next best in the betting without the big two is Jessica Alba at 9/2, with Britney Spears and Keeley Hazell bracketed together on 11/2 and Adriana Lima and Rihanna both 7/1.
Sin City star Alba has slipped from first, to second and then third in the last three stagings, so it is hard to see her reversing the trend.
Britney is another old favourite who bounced back up the charts to No 4 in 2009 but again there has been little of late to recommend a punt on her.
Keeley has been a regular in the top five in recent years without ever quite landing the major prize, but she is a solid bet to be thereabouts again.
Brazilian model Adriana is best known as a Victoria's Secret Angel, while singer Rihanna could come under my umbrella any time!
Our astute talent spotters did single out Frankie Sandford as a lively outsider for the outright title and she has been backed from 18/1 to 12/1 with Paddy Power to come out on top overall.
However, Girls Aloud ace Cheryl prevailed 12 months ago and after another eye-catching stint on X Factor, plus an impressive debut as a solo artist, she is 1/3 to retain her title.
Magnificent Megan came from nowhere to be crowned champion in 2008 and the Transformers beauty is rated a 7/4 chance to go one better than last year's effort.
