AskMen's Top 10 Hottest Women in Tech
by Griffin McElroy 
{ Dec 1st 2007 at 5:30PM }
AskMen, IGN's online magazine for the XY chromosomatic, recently compiled a list of the ten most alluring tech-savvy ladies. Unsurprisingly, six of the ten women are current or former employees of G4TV, including Cheat's Kristen Holt (pictured above) and X-Play's Morgan Webb. PSP-licker-turned-journalist Jessica Chobot also ranks at number three.
As a number of comments on the article have pointed out, there's a few noteworthy names missing from the list. Where is Jade Raymond, Assassin's Creed's delightful producer; or Layla Kayleigh, G4's pint-sized British news correspondent? Oooh, what about Old Grandma Hardcore, that saucy, foul-mouthed minx? We'd like to see just how "hardcore" she really is, if you know what we mean.

This is retarded. Way to perpetuate gamer stereotypes by further objectifying women, this time women specifically related to gaming.
Grey Fox @ Dec 1st 2007 7:11PM
Why do chicks buy calendars of fire fighters?
On a separate now Layla Kayleigh doesn't seem like much of a gamer so much as a really hot piece of meat G4 puts on to do the news.

the real equivalent of a fire fighter calendar is a nurse calendar. It plays with a specific sexual fantasy and the people in the pictures chose to be presented this way.
You don't see lists of top 10 hottest female TV producers, do you? That would be considered juvenile and in bad taste. Yet somehow it's accepted in the gaming community...

No, but you see top 10 hottest TV actress lists all the damn time
hvnlysoldr @ Dec 1st 2007 5:41PM
Being able to swear at a family game like Super Paper Mario is hardcore. So yeah... Maybe... With a paper bag maybe...

"Oooh, what about Old Grandma Hardcore, that saucy, foul-mouthed minx? We'd like to see just how "hardcore" she really is, if you know what we mean."
No. Just no.
Old people scare me.

2 too many G4 female "gamers."

where's jade raymond?
dsub @ Dec 1st 2007 6:07PM
I think she doesn't get as much credit because she's not a television personality or anything like that. The stupid thing is, you don't have to know anything about Video Games to work for G4TV. Most of the people who work for G4 are likely just people trying to get into the acting bizz. All they have to do is read a damn teleprompter. Hell, Jessica Alba could do that.
AlexP @ Dec 1st 2007 6:36PM
I'm busy playing her game.
Lone Starr @ Dec 1st 2007 7:57PM
She's gone into hiding after certain pictures led to something very awful.
Edog Lost @ Dec 1st 2007 8:16PM
Jade Raymond is the HOTTEST girl in video games. Not only is she amazingly beautiful but is also very intelligent. She actually cares about the industry, unlike these dumb bitches hired on to G4 that don't shit about games. They make their pay check and go home.
Jade is the hottest woman in gaming because of her personality.. and those eyes.. those big beautiful eyes that you could just get lost in.. oh those eyes......
Speddy @ Dec 1st 2007 11:06PM
Add me to the Jade Raymond support group! And add TvSquad's Brigitte Dale. She has...shhhh...talent along with those big baby blues!
psyborg @ Dec 2nd 2007 4:46AM
I don't know about the rest of them but Morgan Webb definatly does really play videogames. Shes a big
FPS fan, Unreal specifically.
Crono (NDF - Knight of the Old School) @ Dec 3rd 2007 9:56AM
Morgan Manjaw.
elmersglue @ Dec 1st 2007 5:50PM
I get the feeling that people like jessica chobot are teaseful bitches that has no problem cashing in on the fact that the majority of people who go to ign.com are teenage guys. She's basically just a slut that pretends to like videogames so she can get paid and feel special.

Ah screw it, what do i care? Sluts are awesome...
bounchfx @ Dec 1st 2007 5:57PM
is this list backwards? they get uglier as it goes towards #1
Rob Accomando @ Dec 1st 2007 5:57PM
Don't they mean "Women Who PRETEND to be Tech-Savvy"?
Luigi @ Dec 1st 2007 5:58PM
Why is she doing the "Chenney Mouth"?
DangerMouse @ Dec 1st 2007 6:05PM
cock-jaw
Rob Accomando @ Dec 1st 2007 5:59PM
Oh, and Morgan Webb is #2? lol. Look at that man jaw.
dsub @ Dec 1st 2007 6:00PM
What about Jade Redmond?
dsub @ Dec 1st 2007 6:04PM
errr I mean Raymond.
geeky @ Dec 1st 2007 6:07PM
"We'd like to see just how "hardcore" she really is, if you know what we mean."
Ugh, thats just wrong. I just vomited in my lap a little.
Bryan @ Dec 1st 2007 6:08PM
Oh God, my fucking eyes. Someone gouge them out, PLEASE. Why the hell would you put the ugliest girl in the picture for the post?
Why the hell do you just perpetuate this retarded "girlz play gaemz" shit?
Women want equality and to be respected yet they objectify their own damn selves. Actual female gamers have "girl only" internet club clan guilds, that's just as bad as segregated bathrooms.
Fuck off.
ThornedVenom @ Dec 1st 2007 6:15PM
One of my classmates is a pro female gamer: her counter-strike team almost got sponsored for tournaments, all expenses paid.
She also thinks that sexual segregation in competitive videogaming is ridiculous. But heck, if you want it to be acknowledged as a professional sport, you have to conform with the bullshit.
DammitBran @ Dec 1st 2007 6:20PM
Bathrooms aren't segregated? I've always thought boys and girls used different bathrooms...
AlexP @ Dec 1st 2007 6:37PM
Not everytime my good sir.
elmersglue @ Dec 1st 2007 7:02PM
I was in an airport in italy once and the janitor cleaning the guys bathroom was a chick...i was like what the he-heyy baby, howyoudoin?
Trickob @ Dec 1st 2007 6:17PM
one man's princess peach is another man's princess daisy...
SReg @ Dec 1st 2007 6:26PM
That's definitely not the world's best picture of Kristin Holt.
Also, the article incorrectly states that Blair Butler hosts a segment on comic book releases for X-Play ("Fresh Ink" is on Attack of the Show).
"...started popping up in a number of X-Play’s recurring sketches. Blair was later assigned her own segment on the program in which she reviewed recent comic book releases"
upz @ Dec 3rd 2007 11:19AM
Where she used the word "sycophant" to mean "one who is sick-minded."
This is what happens when you don't let them just read the prompters.
Jester41K @ Dec 1st 2007 6:29PM
How does Layla Kayleigh not make the list? Sexiest girl on the planet, not just in Tech.
elmersglue @ Dec 1st 2007 7:07PM
dude, I dont know about sexiest on the planet, I would say when Kristen Holt isn't busy looking like an alien on Joystiq.com, she's pretty damn sexy.
Jester41K @ Dec 1st 2007 7:12PM
Check out her Myspace and you may reconsider.
Naota @ Dec 1st 2007 6:30PM
please replace that picture, i'm sure it's giving small children nightmares.
TheLoneAmigo @ Dec 2nd 2007 5:06AM
Good grief, way to perpetuate the stereotypes of sexist geeks.
Lil Lube @ Dec 1st 2007 8:16PM
How #10 isn't #1 is beyond me.....
Obie @ Dec 1st 2007 7:03PM
Where the hell is Kathleen Sanders? She is awesome.
Jessica Chobot is cute, but all her articles are horribly written, and I am sure she caught something from all the console licking she does.
shivr @ Dec 1st 2007 7:04PM
so... top 10 women who sort of stand near where the tech is?
W1ld @ Dec 1st 2007 7:08PM
She looks like a horse, lol.
Dio @ Dec 1st 2007 7:11PM
Olivia Munn? Bad show, sir.
i_hate_mtv @ Dec 1st 2007 7:17PM
OK, this whole thing is basically a huge slap in the face to gamers trying to get rid of the stereotype that we're all basement-dwelling losers who beat off to/objectify women on the internet.
Jester41K @ Dec 1st 2007 7:26PM
hey now! I'm an apartment dwelling loser who beats off to girls on the net.
nate @ Dec 1st 2007 7:40PM
actually, I gotta disagree about this being a slap in the face to grown up gamers. It's just treating gamers like everyone else. Theyd run a hottest top 10 women in anything.
What's sad is the gamers who still think that they are some special small corner of society with enlightened views, and to whom game manufacturers must kowtow, lest they be declared betrayers of some imaginary pact.
Everyone games. Let's get over ourselves here.
i_hate_mtv @ Dec 1st 2007 7:53PM
Now that I think about it, you're right Nate. Thanks for disagreeing in a respectable manner.
@Jester: No offense dude. :P
mdxi @ Dec 1st 2007 7:32PM
Please don't post garbage like this again. It's not video games, it's not news.
Clack @ Dec 1st 2007 7:57PM
That pic would have been better with her face next to my Wii.
Dio @ Dec 1st 2007 8:14PM
Are you blind? It clearly says "Vii" in that photo.
