Betty and Joan named sexiest women on TV

I came across a website, whatsontv.co.uk/blogs/tvspy/category/madmen/, which names January Jones and Christina Hendricks as 2 of the top 40 sexiest women on TV. I agree with Betty and Joan, but don't agree with some of the other women named. They were the only 2 from Mad Men though. January Jones is 30!!! She looks younger.

Um YAY for myBetty/Jan Jones!

Joan is beautiful in the "bombshell" kind of way. She and Betty are opposites in that respect

Thank you for the article

Wendy, my daughter thinks Joan is pretty but heavy. Can you believe that? I guess for today's standards she would be considered heavy. I told her Joan is voluptuous, like Marilyn Monroe. She said Jackie Kennedy and Grace Kelly were both thin. She definitely prefers the Betty character. Is Christina Hendricks that buxom in real life or do they pad her dresses? Anyone know?

I think she's voluptuous too but some people see that as heavy. Some men prefer the Betty looks, thin and graceful and some like the Joan type, larger than life looks. Both can be sexy depending on who you talk to lol

I think she is in real life, she looked very curvaceous to me during the Emmy recently.

Sorry, I made a mistake. Type in whatsontv.co.uk/blogs/tvspy/category/mad-men/. I forgot the dash between mad and men. Scroll down and you will see pictures of the 40 sexiest women on tv.

Personally I think January Jones is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen since Grace Kelly. But I do agree that Christina Hendricks is sexy, too, with that body of hers. What I wouldn't give to have either of their bodies. Alas, I'm too old now.

............Christina Hendricks has the most beautiful, exquisite face...but all the ladies of Mad Men are magnetic and fascinating.....for reasons all their own......

Joan is heavy; Betty is a Betty.

WOOT!!! Go JJ and CH!!! They really are gorgeous women in their own right. JJ is more of a western beauty, considering her slim, poised flawless image. Christina is curvaceous, which is considered GORGEOUS in most of the rest of the world, especially the east. I think both women totally deserve to be on the sexiest list. thanks for posting!

I am one of those "curvy" women (not fat), just big tits and ass. Hour-glass shape, so I'm glad someone like Joan is getting kudos and recognition for being the hottie she is, other than the skinny waifs who have been the examples of waht we're supposed to look like. I figured out though, that she seems awfully short-waisted. It's like from her boobs, she does the "V" thing to make a waist, and then an immediate upside down "V" again for her hips. There's not even 3 inches of waist there. No need for a "long line" bra there!

Laurie B, you lucky girl. I wish I had an hour glass shape like you and Christina. When I was young, I was thin and small breasted. But since menopause, I've gained 40 lbs. Bummer. I can't get it off. I think both January and Christina are beautiful women, each in their own way.

I'm carrying around 20 lbs I don't need myself!

Laurie, I agree that being skinny has gotten totally out of hand. When I was a teenager in the 60's, we never worried about being skinny. We had never heard of anorexia. Now it seems the younger generation is obsessed with being thin. I don't think it's healthy. My daughter, who is 24 and working, is 5'7" and about 125 lbs. (which is healthy), but gets up early every day to work out before she goes to work. On top of that, she watches what she eats. It's painful to look at some of those models on runways today. You want to just say "please, eat something."

Congrats to Miss Hendricks and Miss Jones!

Laurie, I'm one of those "hourglass gals". As my sister-in-law and I have often said, we're always hourglasses - sometimes they are large hourglasses and sometimes small, depending on what weight we're at. I would rather be this way - I didn't appreciate when I was younger, but I have learned to value it.

Hope you are able to make PJ Clarke's in December - I'm hoping to make it myself. Gerry, akaBappy53

I don't agree. In the mass medias every nice woman is "sexy", every famous actress is "a star". "Sexy", "star", these words are used to attract customers.

Here is a sexy woman:

Betty is feminine, graceful, desirable, ethereal, but not sexy.
Joan is buxom, voluptuous, sensual, feminine, but not sexy.
Betty is a bit a child wife who wanted to marry a prince, and who try to become a woman in the arms of her husband. But he doesn't like a child wife, he wants a real woman (like his lovers),
Joan is a woman.
Betty has the severity of the queens, the well educated persons, who must appear well in society. But she can't, because she is humiliated by Don. So she can be a nice girl anymore, she becomes a woman.
Joan seems to seek love but she knows that men just see her like a voluptuous woman to fuck. She doesn't hate them because they just see her body, but they turn her away from their desire, their sexuallity.

There is nothing sexy in that.

Personally I don't agree with this... For me the most sexiest woman is Memphis Monroe and I think that she is worth of this title. Well, maybe Memphis is not such famous like Betty or Joan but she is more beautiful! But it is only a my own opinion and I am so glad that I have the opportunity to express it here. Thanks a lot!
