Former model and ex-wife to Beatle Paul McCartney, Heather Mills is set to be crowned one of the world’s sexiest women in a new poll.

Mills shocked bosses at FHM by racking up more than 1,000 votes a day in their online poll to name the world’s 100 most attractive women.

The magazine claims that her popularity has been heightened by her very public divorce from McCartney. Chris Bell, FHM’s deputy editor, says, “Heather Mills has always been vilified as a gold-digger with a dubious past. But readers have realized she’s about to become the world’s most eligible and richest women.

Heather Mills is currently number 95 on the top 100 list, ahead of Paris Hilton, Gwen Stefani, and Kirsten Dunst.
