6) Scarlett Johansson -- One of only five women in the '00s to score two or more Esquire covers, the curvaceous movie star scored high on the strength of simply having been beautiful -- and done good work -- throughout the entire decade. She starred in, among other movies, "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," "Match Point," the hugely underrated "A Love Song for Bobby Long," "Lost in Translation" and "Ghost World," scoring four Golden Globe nominations in the process.

She was FHM's 9th-sexiest woman in 2005, it's sexiest in 2006, 3rd-sexiest in 2007, 5th in 2008, and 3rd again in 2009. Maxim rated her the 6th-hottest of 2006, 3rd-hottest of 2007, 2nd-hottest of 2008, and 7th-hottest of 2009. She scored similar results with AskMen.com, copping her highest finish with that publication at No. 2 in 2007.

She was, perhaps, a victim of her own success in the search arena, as she wasn't among the most searched-for women at all throughout the decade -- we can only guess that guys figured out where to look for her, and in a pinch, could always find her on the big screen or on DVD.
