Who do you think is the sexiest man?

MTV presenter Ruby Rose and models Megan Gale and Miranda Kerr lead the field of beauties in WHO magazine's sexiest people issue.

The trio appear on the front cover of the Australian magazine, out on Friday, wearing strapless swimwear.

They also appear inside the magazine photographed sitting on sand and revealing to readers what they find sexy.

"I don't like people who are too safe or perfect," Rose says.

The pictures were taken when Rose had dark hair, before she turned peroxide blonde.

Other Aussies to make the issue include actors Joel Edgerton and Sam Worthington, TV personality Sonia Kruger, and glamour couple cricketer Michael Clark and model Lara Bingle.

Among the international stars are actresses Angelina Jolie, Sienna Miller and Scarlett Johansson.

While the issue is dominated by women, Richard Branson makes the cut, with the magazine saying: "He's a bronzed adventurer with golden hair, playboy trappings and some serious interests".
