Maxim reveals winner of 'hottest' Bayonetta model search photo

Awhile back, Sega teamed up with Maxim to trick women into dressing up like Bayonetta to win a 50 inch Panasonic TC-P50X1 HDTV Plasma TV and a copy of Bayonetta for the Xbox 360.

Well, a winner has been chosen, and it's Andrea Bonaccorso. Bonaccorso says that when she was nine, she begged her mom for a Sega Genesis, and then become obsessed with Sonic the Hedgehog, Toe Jam and Earl, and (random much?) Rolo to the Rescue. In 2009, she dressed in black, found a fake gun, put on some glasses, and won a television. Good for her. 

While congratulations are in order for Andrea, her win is suspect. Taking a look at the list of top nine entrants chosen by Maxim, one who goes by the name of Sydney, went all out. I'm talking like, hardcore cosplay get-up. What gives?

Yeah, I see what you mean. Sidney should have won that easily.

Must have been some sexual favors involved because I totally agree, that last photo is the win.

My penis isn't digging the winner, nor the other entries.

I imagine it has more to do with Maxim's readership not being all that big of gamers, really.

That is ridiculous, Sidney went, as nick said, all out with a fantastic costume.

I might be a little vulgar in saying this, but the winner probably blew a few guys at maxim/SoA to get the win.

The result baffles me.

You're all fools. Sydney is wearing high heels, not guns! BLASPHEMY!

But yeah, seriously they gave the award to one of the worse entries there. What gives?

She's putting a gun near her open mouth while looking at the camera, and wearing glasses. So whe won. Isn't that obvious?

Look at the results poll. Everyone else got 1% or less. That's why I don't put any stock in these contests.

Holy crap, Rolo to the Rescue!

The 3 that actually have Bayonetta's clothing on should have been winners. Screw this half-naked, "I'm Tina Fey," crap.

The reason she's the hottest is because she probably looks the least like Bayonetta. Bayonetta looks like Sarah Palin without the moose rifle.

An online poll that doesn't require registration to vote?
A result that makes no sense?

It's not a long shot to say 4chan may be behind this...

4chan was behind this. Not sure why, but they rigged the poll.

public voting; therefore a useless process where the winner manages to get the most people willing to span the ballot box.

Paloma, Jennifer and Andrea are the best of a poor bunch. (Im not talking about them looking like bayonetta)

Yeah... that win is definitely suspect!! Why even bother with a contest if they're going to choose a gal that looks nothing like Bayonetta?

Serious BS is serious. Sydney was the obvious win - she even has the tiny, tiny head and long, telescoping legs.

Yeah, I was talking to a customer on the phone when I read that bit about tricking women and I lol'd pretty hard.

Shouldn't Sidney win? @_@
Maybe most voters didn't know how the real Bayonetta actually looks like.
