Each year celebrities are recognized for their physical beauty and attributes and are featured on sexiest lists in various publications. But every year, some of our favorite minority stars get left off the lists.

In the past, we’ve voiced our frustration over the rankings and lack of diversity on lists such as Maxim’s “Hot 100,” so we thought it would be a good idea to highlight a few celebs that we’d like to see appear on someone’s 2014 hottest list.

Check out some of our picks below and please let us know who we’re missing.
