FHM has this awesome interactive “Lady Selector” for their Top 100 Sexiest list in which Keeley Hazell helps you narrow down your choices and gives her opinion on who you should vote for. In the process, you can have Keeley made up as a hot American girl next door, as a kinky whip toting British gal, or pretty much whatever else you fancy. You want more boobs, you can get more Keeley boobs. You want more ass, you get more Keeley ass. You want more Keeley legs… well, I think you get the point.

So let me make a prediction: Keeley Hazell wins FHM’s Top 100 Sexiest.
