In one of those online polls that makes you fear for the sexual development of Internet-enabled persons as a whole; Britney Spears’ clip for “Toxic” has been named the “Most Sexy Video” of all time by the users of the UK music-video site Muzu.tv; No. 1 on the corresponding “Least Sexy” list, meanwhile, is Madonna’s leotard-tastic “Hung Up”. In case you’re wondering just what the gender breakdown of the artists included on each list is: The “Most” list has a 6.5/3.5 female/male split (although I don’t think I’d be wrong to guess that Robert Palmer’s “Addicted To Love,” No. 10, was deemed “sexy” not because of the late blue-eyed soul singer but by his fake female backing band); the “Least” list’s split, meanwhile, is 4/6. The only artist to make both the “most” and “least” lists? Robbie Williams-spawning Britboyband Take That. (How UKrazy!) The two top tens after the jump.

So was this just the most roundabout way of saying that 20-somethings are hotter than 50-somethings? Go figure!
@chachwitablog: But Kylie!
I think number one and two in the Least Sexy category points to the general public’s fear and hatred of leotards.
What about Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game”?
@eltedioso: But… but… but that song is OLD. And OLD things are ICKY.
Poor Valerie Cherish just can’t catch a break.
