Britney Spears topped magazine chart  

She may have had her fair share of troubled times over the past few years, but it would appear Britney Spears is well and truly back on top.

As well as bagging a lucrative judging slot on the US ‘X Factor’, the 30-year-old singer has also had the prestigious title of Sexiest Woman in Music bestowed on her by Billboard magazine.

The ‘Womanizer’ hitmaker beat off stiff competition from second-place Lady Gaga, 26, and third-place Beyonce, 30, with more than 45 per cent of the votes from the 600,000 readers who named their preferences.

Best friends Rihanna, 24, and Katy Perry, 27, came in fourth and fifth places respectively, while Britney’s ‘X Factor’ co-star Demi Lovato, 19, bagged the sixth spot.

Madonna proved she’s still got it at the age of 53 by beating both Latino siren Jennifer Lopez, 42, and risqué rapper Nicki Minaj, 29, in the rankings, while country singer Taylor Swift, 22, rounded off the top ten.
