A day ago, we brought you a feature on identifying various body types and exercises that have the maximum impact on each. Today, we bring you a list of celebs who have made it to the list of 'best body shapes'.

A poll conducted by UK-based website offerssupermarket.co.uk saw women vote for their favourite celebrity body. Not surprisingly, it was the curvy ladies with the much-desired hourglass shape were the hot favourites -- here are the results!

1. Kim Kardashian

The US reality TV star and socialite may not rate very high on the talent scale, but you can't deny that Kim is as hot as they come! She garnered a whopping 71 percent of the votes.

2. Beyonce Knowles

JLo's figure has received its fair share of attention over the years, given that she was one of the first superstars to truly embrace her curves and work them to her advantage. And now, two years after giving birth to twins, 56 percent of women still want the same look!

6. Jessica Simpson
