Receiving a heroes welcome, Miss World 2008 Ksenia Sukhinova was greeted as she arrived at Moscow Domodedovo International airport on Wednesday (December 17).

The 21-year-old student from Tyumen in Siberia, who was the winner of the Miss Russia 2007 contest, already proclaimed her happiness to be back in her homeland - mentioning that she's joyous that the world saw that Russian girls were the "most beautiful."

"And now I want to go home and want to see snow," Sukhinova told reporters at the airport, where she proudly wore her crown and ribbon while posing for pictures.

Answering a question on her private life, Sukhinova, who also won the contest's top model award and took the third place in the swimsuit competition, also revealed that her heart was "still free" - something all of those eligible bachelors out there are surely taking note of!

1. Brazil – Adriana Lima

God, oh god! Adriana is absolutely stunning. If that was not enough, she is also still a virgin. No joking, she is very religious and claimed she will wait for her marriage. I mean, put together such a gorgeous woman with the virtue of purity and you get what? An angel!
2. Germany – Heidi Klum

Heidi is a supermodel, actress, designer, artist, singer and television presenter. Well, not only that, she is also one of the hottest things we have ever seen walking on to two legs. Just take a look at her pictures and tell us if we are wrong.
3. Cuba – Vida Guerra

Vida became an instant hit when she appeared on the American version of FHM in 2002. In 2005 a supposed n*ked picture of Vida leaked. She said the pictures were of another woman, and to prove her point, she decided to pose n*de for Playboy in 2006. Now that is an argument we can’t protest against.
4. Serbia - Ana Ivanović

Yeah, we also love Ana Kournikova and Maria Sharapova, but Ana Ivanovic is our pick for Serbia. She was born in Belgrade, 1987, and she is currently ranked as the number 2 tennis player in the world.
5. Denmark - Helena Christensen

Things are starting to get really hot eh? Helena has worked with several fashion companies, including Victoria’s Secret. She is supposed to have an addiction to cheese. Hmm, not sure if using a Gorgonzola scented deodorant on my armpits would help us out.
6. Israel – Bar Rafaeli

Before turning one years old, baby Bar Rafaeli was already modeling. Talk about starting early…. She has being featured in several magazines like Sports Illustrated and Maxim, and she is also supposed to be in a relationship with actor Leonardo Di Caprio (yeah, I am also wondering what he has that I don’t).
7. Switzerland - Michelle Hunziker

When we say Switzerland you will probably think “green mountains, cows, and chocolate”. Well, not anymore. Switzerland is also the land of beautiful (and tall) blond women, and Michelle illustrates it perfectly. She is an actress, model and television personality in Italy and Germany.
8. Nigeria – Oluchi Onweagba

Oluchi Onweagba is from the African country of Nigeria and just drop dead gorgeous. She was born in Lagos, 1980, and currently she lives in New York where she work as a model for several fashion houses. Her first name means “God’s Work.” We would like to second that!
9. Portugal - Cláudia Vieira

Claudia Vieira is a soap opera actress, and very famous in her homeland. At the age of 28, she definitely raises the audience ratings whenever she is on TV … just gorgeous!
10. Colombia – Sofia Vergara

Sofia was casually discovered by a talent hunter while she was on a Colombian beach. After that encounter she became a model in Colombia, and recently moved to the United States to begin an acting career. She is also one of the latinas that sells lots of those pinup calendars. No wonder, right.
