Eva Mendes is World's most Desirable Woman

Hollywood actress Eva Mendes has been named the Most Desirable Woman in the world by a new online survey.

The Hitch star topped a poll of more than seven million people beating the likes of beauties Scarlett Johansson and Rihanna, who could only manage the seventh and eight place respectively, reports contactmusic.com.

Mendes also left behind model-turned-actress Megan Fox, who was crowned last year's Sexiest Woman In The World by FHM magazine.
