Smoking Hot: Hailey Baldwin Named Maxim's Sexiest Lady of 2017

Maxim magazine released its latest list of the hottest ladies of the year, topped by Hailey Baldwin.

According to the magazine, simply being pretty isn't the only requirement to getting a top spot in their hottest 100: “You've also got to be a badass. And Baldwin is. She's a provocateur in the best sense, titillating the public with relationships with Justin Bieber and baiting gossip rags with comments like ‘Yes, I'm pregnant and Kendall Jenner is the baby mama,’” editors explained.

The model, with her perfect figure, wispy blond hair, big brown eyes and pouty lips, is the daughter of graphic designer Kennya Deodato Baldwin and the youngest of the four acting Baldwin brothers, Stephen Baldwin.

Thanks to her ancestors, she has the best of English, Irish, Scottish, French, German, Italian and Portuguese genes.

The 20-year-old hottie was home-schooled as a child, since it was difficult for her to communicate with classmates because of the countless questions they would ask about her family.

Hailey has been dancing since she was five. Her passion was so serious that she even dreamed of a career as a classic ballerina. However, she had to stop training due to a foot injury.

When she was 15, Hailey started modeling for Tatler, LOVE and V magazines and participated in an advertising campaign for French Connection.

Her runway debut happened in September 2014 in London, when she took part in the Topshop collection show. After that she was named as the company’s new brand ambassador.

In 2015, the model actively participated in photo shoots for major fashion magazines such as Vogue, L'Officiel, Elle, Jalouse and Wonderland.

Ralph Lauren, Dolce & Gabbana, Tommy Hilfiger, Philipp Plein, Moschino, Jeremy Scott and Elie Saab invited Hailey Baldwin to grace their fashion shows.

The model had also been the face of collections by Karl Lagerfeld, Guess and H&M.

Hailey has her own account on Instagram, @haileybaldwin, with over 10 million followers.
