    The lingerie firm's Angels have announced their sexiest stars of the year. Do you agree with their choices?

    Victoria's Secret has revealed its annual 'What Is Sexy?' list with a little help from some of the brand's favourite Angels.

    VS favourites including Candice Swanepoel, Erin Heatherton, Karlie Kloss and Alessandra Ambrosio, who have sex appeal in abundance, have announced who they think are this year's sexiest celebrities.

    As well as some familiar faces, including Jessica Chastain who has switched from last year's Sexiest Smile winner to Sexiest Actress for 2013 and Jennifer Lawrence who claimed the Sexiest Eyes title for 2012 but now holds the Sexiest Sense of Humour spot, there are some newcomers.

    Pop superstar Rihanna was crowned this year's Sexiest Bikini Body, while Beyoncé scooped the Sexiest Songstress equivalent. Actress Blake Lively was deemed to have the best legs, Les Misérables star Amanda Seyfried the sexiest hair and Django Unchained's Kerry Washington the most kissable lips. Even our very own Emilia Clarke, who plays Daenerys Targaryen in HBO hit Game of Thrones, was voted the Sexiest International Import by the Angels.
