The 20 Hottest Aliens In Movie And TV History

Star Trek Into Darkness opens wide today, giving the world not only a whole new set of Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto bro-moments, but also some inevitably super hot extraterrestrial beings who launch our rockets into the stratosphere (eww). To celebrate the latest voyages of the starship Enterprise, we've decided to count down the 20 sexiest aliens in entertainment history!

But before we begin we'd like to add a small disclaimer. Sci-Fi fans are generally the most precise and passionate aficionados in the world (especially the Trekies and Star Wars crew). They are familiar with each and every nuance of their fictional universe, and every species of creature that inhabits it. So with that in mind, please don't set our comments section on fire when we inevitably get something wrong. We really did try! There was a lot to learn...

Yes, we know that Star Trek: Voyager's Seven of Nine is technically a human with former Borg capabilities. And The Fifth Element's Leeloo is also not an "alien" per-se, but a humanoid woman made from said fifth element. Battlestar Gallactica's Number Six is a humanoid Cylon, and perhaps most unforgivably, Futurama's Leela is technically half mutant/half human...and she lives on Earth! So all in all, we probably should have just called this post "The 20 Hottest Aliens, Mutants, Semi Robots, and Humans That Live In The Distant Future." But that didn't really scan, so we shortened it to just "Aliens."

In any event, they ARE all other-worldly attractive, so definitely head up to the gallery above see who made the list!
