Maxim magazine announced Candice Swanepoel as the sexiest woman in the world for 2014, but it chose Irina Shayk for the American cover of July-August issue.

The 28-year-old partner of the famous footballer Cristiano Ronaldo posed topless by the sea, raising the temperatures.

Shayk makes her cinematic film debut as Megara in “Hercules”, a woman who lusts Hercules, next to Dwayne Johnson, John Hurt, Joseph Fiennes and Ian McShane. The film is directed by Brett Ratner and will be released on July 25, 2014.
