Leonardo DiCaprio's ex tops Maxim Hot 100 countdown

Leonardo DiCaprio's supermodel ex-girlfriend Bar Refaeli has topped the 2012 Maxim Hot 100 list.

For the first time in the magazine's history, readers were allowed to vote for the hotties - and there was overwhelming support for the Israeli stunner.

Thrilled Refaeli says, "Every year, it's a different girl that I look up to. For me to be among them, it's an honor."

The single model is hoping the honor will help her find a mate she can settle down with and start a family, adding, "I'm looking for a friend that will make me laugh, that will teach me every day - that I can learn from, and that has the same values as me. It sounds very simple but it's very hard to find."

Also making the top 10: Mila Kunis, Katy Perry, Olivia Munn, Olivia Wilde, Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Stone, Megan Fox, Malin Akerman and Adrianne Palicki.
