On her win, Naidoo says: "I'm still in shock! I've been modelling for 10 years now, so to be voted as FHM's Sexiest Woman in the World at the culmination of my career is really the biggest honour I think I could have received.
"But I'm more proud of the fact that 12 girls from my modelling agency are in the top 100!"
