Alycia Lane

First, a number of pictures of her in a bikini that somehow wound up in the email inbox of a man who happened to be married at the time he received them. The scandal grew into something huge since the guy was Rich Eisen of the NFL. Later, she got into a fight with a female cop (while drunk), and then was fired from the Philadelphia station she was working at. Even bigger than that, it was later found out that a co-worker had been snooping her inbox for years, and stealing information to get the jump on stories ahead of her. He was fired and arrested, then brought up on federal charges.

Nicole Lapin, probably the youngest woman on this list at only 25, is also probably the most stunningly beautiful. She’s an anchor for CNN Live (their online newscast), but she’s appeared on all other iterations of CNN newscasts as well. She’s from LA and her mom’s a former Miss Israel, and to top it all off she started going to Harvard when she was only 15. This girl is easily better than all of us.
