With the inaugural edition of its Mail Online Showbiz Awards, the Daily Mail has shortlisted the best female figures of the past year. Take a look.

Christening 2012 a "a bumper year of bikini bodies, celebrity scandal and over-sharing on Twitter", UK publication the Daily Mail has published long list of celebrity recipients for what they are calling the 'Mail Online Showbiz Awards'.

In the following pages, we bring you the top 10 candidates for the 'Best Bikini Body' of the past year.

1. Kim Kardashian

In first place we have the famous reality star, who's built her career on her legendary curves.

Kim is all set to become a mother this year, but we're guessing she'll snap back into shape soon after the baby!
