The results below are for the categories of Sexiest Actor & Sexiest Actress Sexiest Actor MADS MIKKELSEN 405 KRIS HOLDEN-RIED 230 JENSEN ACKLES 218 HUGH DANCY 170 COLIN O'DONOGHUE 163 NATHAN FILLION 145 STEPHEN AMELL 144 BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH 124 CHRIS EVANS 112 JOHNNY DEPP 111 TOM HIDDLESTON 106 JAMIE DORNAN 96 JARED PADALECKI 96 IAN SOMERHALDER 95 SHEMAR MOORE 84 CHRIS PRATT 84 NORMAN REEDUS 78, MISHA COLLINS 73, HENRY CAVILL 65, MATT SMITH 61, CHRIS PINE 59, NEIL PATRICK HARRIS 47, TOM HARDY 46, TOM MISON 46, COLTON HAYNES 40, ANDREW LINCOLN 33, GRANT GUSTIN 32, JOSH JACKSON 31 JOEL KINNAMAN 27, YANNICK BISSON 27, CHRIS COLFER 25, TOM RILEY 18, CHRISTIAN KANE 17 Sexiest Actress
ANNA SILK 366 ZOIE PALMER 273 STANA KATIC 218 SCARLETT JOHANSSON 194 JENNIFER LAWRENCE 194 LANA PARRILLA 152 JENNIFER MORRISON 144 EMILY BETT RICKARDS 130 KAT DENNINGS 83 JENNA COLEMAN 56 JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT 54 YVONNE STRAHOVSKI 44 ANNA TORV 40 KATRINA LAW 39 MOLLY QUINN 39 JAMIE CHUNG 38 EMILY KINNEY 31, ERICA DURANCE 27, ANNA FARIS 26, ALISON BRIE 23, HELENE JOY 23, ALY MICHALKA 20, SARAH BOLGER 20, GEORGINA REILLY 17, MELISSA RAUCH 15 Defending 3X champion Jensen Ackles looks like he could be in a battle this year with Mads Mikkelsen & Kris Holden-Ried both outvoting him in the semi-finals. There are 8 challengers who made the finals last year that also have made the finals this year. Included in that bunch is last years runner up Benedict Cumberbatch and 3rd place challenger Colin O'Donoghue. Two finalists were not even nominees last year, Tom Hiddleston & Chris Pratt. Last years 4th place finisher, Misha Collins, missed the finals by 11 votes. With 3 different winners in the 3 years of this award, Sexiest Actress might be on the verge of going 4 for 4 if the semi-finals are a sign of what the finals will bring. Despite the strong penalties against Zoie Palmer and Anna Silk for the ineligible vote penalties of the nomination round, both of them managed to finish 1st & 2nd in this category. However, they still will have penalties against them in the finals. At least going into the finals.... they look the the pair to beat for the award. The last 2 Sexiest Actress winners Jennifer Lawrence & Stana Katic are again in the finals in 3rd & 4th. However, the first ever winner Erica Durance, did not make the finals this year. Like the men, 8 of last years finalists made this years finals. The highest ranked finalist last year to not make it this year was Olivia Wilde, as she did not even make the semi-finals this year. The finals for these categories will take place in January 2015 HERE.

With last years winner Erica Durance gone, and the 2010 Best Actress winner Anna Torv's show "Fringe" winding down, competition for the Sci-fi/fantasy crown could be left to just Lost Girl & Once Upon A Time next year if this seasons vote means much. "Lost Girl" nabbed 1st, 3rd & 4th with Zoie Palmer, Anna Silk & Ksenia Solo. "Once Upon A Time" squeezed in 2 finalists, with Lana Parrilla getting 2nd, and Jennifer Morrison taking a 5th place tie with former 2010 best actress Anna Torv from "Fringe".

Last years winner, Stana Katic from "Castle" comes in 2nd, with the rest of the finalists being newcomers to the finals. Michelle Dockery from "Downton Abbey" 3rd, Mireille Enos "The Killing" a shocking 4th & Jennifer Carpenter "Dexter" taking 5th by just 2 votes over finalist from last year Sharon Gless from "Burn Notice".

Here we base it off how many episodes you are in, so a variety of actresses who might not normally get recognized since they stand between regular & guest star roles get recognized. A minimum of 3, maximimum of 7 appearances is what is required. Perfect example is the leader going into the finals, "Hawaii Five-O" star Michelle Borth. Potentially a full timer down the road, she has yet to get enough credits to be completely considered one (at the time of the nominations). Runner ups were 2 "Supernatural" girls Rachel Miner & Liane Balaban. 4th goes to "Dexter" bad girl Yvonne Strahovski and the final spot goes to "Fringe" short term actress Georgina Haig. Two Once Upon A Time cast were narrowly edged out as Barbara Hershey & Jamie Chung just missed the list.
