Matthew McConaughey & Camila Alves (Getty Images) All right, all right, all right – Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves are moving on up our list of
100 Hottest Celebrity Couples. They've jumped eight spots to land just inside the top 50 at number 49.
We never thought
Matthew McConaughey and his abs would walk down the aisle, but it's happening! That's the plan, at least. The actor popped the question to the mother of his two adorable children,
Camila Alves, over the holidays. They're reportedly planning a big wedding in Brazil, but are getting settled back in Texas first. The actor explained that they've decided to split their time between L.A. and his home state for
some exposure to "family values, neighbors and common sense." Speaking of exposure, McConaughey will be showing quite a lot when he plays a male stripper in this year's
Magic Mike.
For those curious about our process of ranking these couples, this year we've refined our definition of "hotness" to rank 100 celebrity couples using the following criteria: Staying Power, Popularity, Success, and Attractiveness. The resulting list includes hot pairings made up of models, singers, actors, ex-wrestlers, reality stars, and more. While the hottest couple of them all, Beyonce and Jay-Z, has been on our list for four years now, 24 of these famous duos also made their debut. Check out
the entire feature here.
McConaughey and his fiance aren't the only pair to make the list (obviously). Britney Spears and her new husband landed at number 55.
Britney Spears hasn't made many great choices in the dating world since her biggest mistake of all (letting
Justin Timberlake go). But she seems to have turned her bad string of dudes around thanks to
Jason Trawick. The two got engaged in December and it seems like he's an all right guy. He takes care of her and her career, can stand to be at the same baseball field as
Kevin Federline, and genuinely cares for her sons. Plus, he was Spears' right-hand man on her third comeback tour to support her latest album,
Femme Fatale. There's talk that she'll join the judges' panel on
X Factor next season, but that has yet to be confirmed. If she lands that gig, he cuts his stringy hair, and they actually get married, expect to see these two closer to the top next year.
A new coulpe to the list is one of the most attractive. We know
George Clooney isn't going to marry former WWE model
Stacy Keibler. He's never hidden his
stance again marriage. However, they obviously have looks in their favor and it's also been a winning year for the silver fox career-wise. He was nominated for an Oscar for
The Descendants, teamed up with
Ryan Gosling for
Ides of March, and will star alongside
Sandra Bullock in
Gravity this year. At 50, he shows no signs of aging or slowing down. Ms. Keibler's biggest accomplishment of the last year was landing Mr. Clooney, of course. She also had a minor role in a straight-to-DVD film called
Dysfunctional Friends.
