10 Hottest (Female) Sci-Fi Aliens

This one was odd to write. I am not a man, or a lesbian, so I had to canvass some friends on who counts as hot. Also, I have not seen all these films/shows (shhh!) Guess which ones!

There are plenty of sexy women who hail from the planet Earth, but there’s something about the mystique and glamour of the extraterrestrial that makes it fun to dabble outside of our atmosphere once in a while. After some exhaustive research through film, television and comic books, we’ve come up with the definitive top 10 aliens you wish you could be abducted by.

(10) Girl with Three – ahem – “Points of Interest” (Total Recall; Lycia Naff)

Apparently her name was Mary, but we were… distracted. Let’s stop beating around the bush, this alien/mutant/gift-from-god appeals to the teenage boy that still lives inside every man; the boy who knows that three breasts are always going to be better than two. As one of the most iconic parts of the sci-fi Schwartzeneger vehicle, while agreement may never be reached on your differing interpretations of the dream-within-a-dream scenarios, all men canbond over their mutual appreciation of… What was her name again?

(9) Gaila (Star Trek 2010; Rachel Nichols)

The prototypical alien fantasy, the green-skinned alien of Captain Kirk’s time on the Starship Enterprise got a feminist update for the 21st century. Thankfully, the exotic green skin and rampant sex appeal didn’t go the way of William Shatner’s singing career. Instead, J.J. Abrams managed to make these Orion babes even more appealing by showing us a green- skinned vixen who won’t bow down to any man. Turns out that an independent woman can be even hotter than one that will cater to your every whim.

(8) Kara Zor-El – alias Supergirl (DC Comics)

Hotter than a supermodel, blonder than a fantasy, able to take your breath away with a sweep of her hair. Look! Up in the sky! It's a babe. It's a total hottie. It's Supergirl! Yes, Superman’s little cousin is a bona-fide ten-out-of-ten. Brought in by DC Comics to up their products’ appeal with teen girls, I think she must have appealed to teen boys just as much, if not more. Superman’s iconic ‘S’ sure looks better on Kara. There’s something about a girl who can see through your clothes…

(7) Chiana (Farscape; Gigi Edgley)

There’s nothing more exciting than a rebel without a cause, and Farscape’s Chiana has certainly got the credentials having lied, stolen, cheated and killed her way across half the known universe. Her gray color palette is enticingly intriguing, kind of like a black-and white photo in an encyclopedia came to life and asked you to do naughty things.

(6) Seven of Nine (Star Trek Voyager; Jeri Ryan)

We still don’t know why Seven of Nine had to wear a skin-tight jumpsuit instead of anything
remotely practical for living on a starship, and we have to admit that we still don’t care. While she was born a human, we think that large amounts of alien technology implanted into her body, not to mention being raised by the half-alien, half-computer Borg definitely counts her in the alien category. The hotness credential is, we’re sure unchallenged. One of the best things about prime-time TV during the run of the show, Seven of Nine could assimilate us any time she likes.

(5) Number 6 (Battlestar Galactica; Tricia Helfer)

Dangerous, mysterious, at times disturbingly violent; Number 6 would only hurt you because she loved you. Or her God told her to. Or just for kicks. That red dress and that figure would have made the show worth watching even if it hadn’t been so amazingly good. Best of all, there are thousands of Sixes, so even if one of them is so busy plotting the downfall of the human race that she can’t make time to see you, you can just call up another.

(4) Anna (V; Morena Baccarin)

She rocks the short pixie hair-cut as the leader of the Visitors in this update of the 1983 sci-fi spectacular. Sure, she’s got a slightly predatory look in her eyes at times, and if you accepted her offer to stay over “just for the night” you’d probably wake up to find your apartment redecorated and scented soaps all over the bathroom, but we think she’d definitely make it worth your while.

(3) Leeloo (The Fifth Element; Mila Jovovich)

http://www.just-whatever.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/leeloo_fifth_element.jpg

It’s just something about those bandages. Or maybe the way those orange suspender-things matched her hair. Whatever they were they showed off just enough to get us interested but not so much that we had our fill. Even better, it’s not like Bruce Willis was much of a looker in that movie either, so there’s always the feeling we’d have a chance.

(2) Neytiti (Avatar; Zoe Saldana)

Okay, so it would be a somewhat unconventional relationship. Maybe she wouldn’t be welcome at the residents’ association meetings when we discuss chopping down some trees. Yes, she’s ten feet tall, and blue, and has a tail, and weird feet, and there is that whole sex- via-a-docking-port conundrum. We’d find a way to make it work! Although, pretty sure we wouldn’t sully our docking-port-connection by also doing it with a flying dragon.

(1) Princess Leia (Star Wars; Carrie Fischer)

Two words - golden bikini; surely one of the most iconic movie outifts of all time and fuel for a whole generation’s teenage fantasies. Having led an alliance of rebels and handled herself pretty well in encounters with stormtroopers, she’s definitely not the kind of girl you’d have to carry home from the bar because her heels were hurting. Granted, she did make out with her brother, and cinnamon buns wouldn’t be every girls choice of hair-styling inspiration, but we’re prepared to forgive that. Meeting the parents does have an added thrill when her dad could choke you with his mind.
