IT’S official: Kate Upton is the sexiest woman on the planet.

The US swimsuit model, best known for her revealing appearances in Sports Illustrated, was named People Magazine’s Sexiest Woman at an awards ceremony in Los Angeles overnight.

“This is such an honour to me because sexy to me means someone who’s confident and happy,” said Upton, 22, as she accepted the honour, the magazine reports.
