Sure, these stars each had a big year, but they also brought the heat in 2014. Sexy and irresistible, they'll no doubt continue to make pulses race next year too. But what do you think? Tell us your favorite hotties from 2014 in the comment box below.
Women
1) Jennifer Lawrence
The star of “The Hunger Games” trilogy has quickly grown to be one of Hollywood’s favorite actresses – perhaps the favorite. She is the perfect combination of true talent and effortless beauty. No wonder she topped Forbes' list of highest grossing actors in 2014.
2) Candice Swanepoel
This South African fashion model can pull off any attire, but we’re most accustomed to seeing her in a pair of wings while walking down a runway. She is one of the most glamorous Victoria’s Secret Angels.

This voluptuous, green-eyed beauty is always flawless. She just gave birth to her first child – a daughter named Rose – and she still looks stunning! The actress has been well-known since her breakout role in “Lost In Translation” back in 2003, but entered a whole other realm of super-stardom when she became the recurring character of Black Widow in "The Avengers"/"Captain America" films.
You may have seen her bare it all on the cover of GQ or in the “Blurred Lines” music video, but this brunette bombshell showed off her acting skills as Nick Dunne’s (Ben Affleck) mistress in “Gone Girl.”
Nude photo shoot aside, we can all agree that Kim K has sex appeal and a curvaceous body that most girls would die to have.
This beautiful actress had a big 2014. She directed “Unbroken” and starred in “Maleficent,” her first major role in several years.
As the most well-known Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, this blonde buxom beach babe always turns heads. All that made her an easy choice for People Magazine to declare her the “Sexiest Woman Alive” for 2014. Upton also starred in the comedy “The Other Woman” alongside Cameron Diaz to showcase her acting skills.
Beyoncé will go down in history as one of the fiercest women to have ever walked the planet. Despite any drama surrounding the singer’s life, her music and physique only continue to improve and impress. She is also one half of the music industry’s biggest power couple. She and husband Jay Z took in more than $100 million for their “On the Run Tour.”
The naturally gorgeous actress can go from sweetheart to sexy vixen without batting an eyelash. She even looked sexy covered in blood in her starring role as “Gone Girl’s” Amy Dunne.
Sure, she’s sophisticated and beautiful, but Alamuddin really turned heads earlier this year when she settled down with the former-unobtainable bachelor and every woman’s dream man, George Clooney.
Men
McConaughey had a historic year in Hollywood: there was his Oscar-winning performance in “Dallas Buyers Club,” follwed by his Emmy-nominated role in “True Detective,” and most recently he starred in Christopher Nolan’s epic space saga “Interstellar.” McConaughey is adaptable and can wear any face his character requires, but we know what's underneath that mask – a chiseled hunk.
The nerdy actor of “Parks and Recreation” fame transformed himself, physically and professionally, into a Hollywood star that catapulted “Guardians of the Galaxy” into the stratosphere. Pratt sits one notch below Jennifer Lawrence as the second-highest grossing actor of 2014, and rightfully so. He’s humble – and hot – and deserves the credit.
The “Whiplash” star is finally getting recognition after playing in smaller indie films for the past few years. Known for his humor and wit, Teller revealed a more serious side in his grueling part as a dedicated music student who’s been pushed to his limits to achieve success. In addition to popping up in more big-name flicks, he's also been popping out of his shirts. Teller has been dedicated to fitness and it shows. Guess he knows the true meaning of hard work.
Tatum portrayed the typical heartthrob jock persona that most viewers associate him with – but this male model can play whichever role is thrown in his direction. The once typecasted comedy/romantic star proved he can shine in the intense drama "Foxcatcher." He may look tough with his six pack abs, but Tatum is a softie, which makes him a lovable actor.
The former boy band member proved his musical versatility with the radio hit “Jealous.” The youngest Jo-Bro has really grown up, and has shown the world what he can do as a solo performer. And - oh yeah – he made jaws hit the floor when he grabbed his crotch in a photo shoot for Flaunt magazine.
Inhabiting the role of the muscle-bound god with golden locks, “Thor,” requires a special kind of eye candy, and Hemsworth certainly fits the bill. Next up he'll be featured in the film “Blackhat,” which is set to hit theaters on Jan. 16. He plays a hacker who was released from prison to prevent a criminal from initiating violent cyber attacks.
Cooper followed up his Academy Award-nominated performance in “American Hustle” with a lead role in Clint Eastwood’s recently released “American Sniper,” which is already getting Oscar buzz. He is the epitome of a dream guy, both physically and emotionally. Cooper’s talent extends beyond the big screen to the stage. He's currently starring on Broadway in a limited showing of the “Elephant Man.” The play earned $3.1 million in just three weeks thanks to his emotionally-gripping performance. Ladies love him and men want to be him.
Everyone knows the trouble Franco and his co-star Seth Rogan went through during the release of film “The Interview,” but Franco also branched out to the stage and starred in a Broadway show based on John Steinbeck’s classic “Of Mice and Men.” Franco is a jack of all trades as an on-stage performer, actor and poet/writer, but we must not forget how helped to encourage the art of taking a selfie. He was often missing articles of clothing in the photos, but no one seemed to mind.
Besides continuing to be a host on the wildly popular singing competition show “The Voice,” Levine and his band Maroon 5 released their fifth studio album and scored a major hit with the single “Animals.” He was dubbed the “Sexiest Man Alive” in 2013, but his champion status held up in 2014.
“Sherlock” fans knew him before this year, but Cumberbatch is now a household name after his critically-acclaimed performance in “The Imitation Game.” He may not be in-your-face sexy or super buff, but Cumberbatch catches viewers’ attention with his portrayals of complex characters. He’s intriguing and mysterious, which translates to irresistibly sexy.
