Harry's Hot Pal

This English actress and model rose to prominence playing Hermione Granger, one of three starring roles in the Harry Potter film series. And with her pretty face and gorgeous persona, she is definitely one hot sexy celebrity of today's generation.

Born in Paris, France, Emma Watson's childhood dream was to become an actress. She trained at the Oxford branch of Stagecoach Theatre Arts, a part-time theatre school, where she studied singing, dancing, and acting. By the age of ten, she had performed in various Stagecoach productions and school plays, including Arthur: The Young Years and The Happy Prince, but she had never acted professionally before the Harry Potter series.

In 1999, casting began for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (released as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the United States), the film adaptation of British author J. K. Rowling's bestselling novel. Casting agents found Emma through her Oxford theatre teacher, and producers were impressed by her confidence. After eight auditions, she was chosen to play the role of Hermione Granger, one of Harry Potter's bestfriends.

From 2001 to 2009, the hot and sexy young actress starred in six Harry Potter films. The final two installments of the series: the two parts of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows are scheduled for release in November 2010 and July 2011 respectively. Her work on the film series has earned her several awards and catapulted her to stardom. Her first non-Potter role was the 2007 BBC film Ballet Shoes, an adaptation of the novel of the same title by Noel Streatfeild. She also lent her voice to the role of Princess Pea in the animated film The Tale of Despereaux.

The 20-year-old hot and sexy star's work in the Harry Potter series has earned her more than £10 million. In March 2009, she was ranked 6th on the Forbes list of "Most Valuable Young Stars" and in February 2010, she was named as Hollywood's highest paid female star, having earned an estimated £19 million in 2009. She also made her modelling debut for Burberry's Autumn/Winter campaign that year.

Holly Hot!

Holly Valance is another hot and sexy celebrity that men adore. This Australian model, actress, and singer began her career as Felicity "Flick" Scully on the Australian soap opera Neighbours. Her debut album, Footprints, received much attention both in Australia and in the United Kingdom. She has also appeared in several television shows and movies in the United States.

Born to a Serbian father and a British mother, Holly's family moved to Melbourne when she was very young. While modeling as a teen, she was discovered and cast in the long-running Australian soap Neighbours in 1999. She left the series in 2002 to pursue a music career. Her first single as a recording artist was a cover of Turkish singer Tarkan's "Kiss Kiss". The song debuted at No. 1 in both the Australian Recording Industry Association and UK Singles Charts. Her other singles, "Down Boy" and "Naughty Girl", were also successful in both countries.

The hot and sexy celebrity released her sophomore album in 2003, but it was not a commercial success. Following the legal problems -- she fired her then-manager Scott Michaelson by phone, she was sued, and she lost the case -- and poor sales of her second album, she was reportedly dropped from her recording company. She denied it and later told in an interview that she is no longer interested in recording.

In 2004, hot and sexy Holly returned to acting, this time in the United States, appearing in episodes of the television series CSI: Miami and Entourage. In 2005, she appeared in an episode of CSI: NY. She then guest-starred in Prison Break, in 2006, as Nika Volek, a role which she continued to portray in the show's second season. In 2006, she appeared in the National Lampoon comedy Pledge This!, alongside American socialite Paris Hilton. The same year, she was in DOA: Dead or Alive, an adaptation of the popular video game Dead or Alive.

In 2007, the hot and sexy Aussie appeared in the series Shark and Moonlight. In 2008, she had a role in the film Taken, and appeared in an episode of the series Valentine. In 2009, Holly played Brenda Snow for the video game Command and Conquer Red Alert 3: Uprising. She is also set to appear as Angela in the movie Red Herring and as Sally in the upcoming thriller titled Luster.
