The list was compiled by the magazine’s editorial staff, members of the adult community, select readers and fans. According to Genesis, the rankings are based on “overall popularity, exposure, body of work, accolades, accomplishments on and off screen and how hot her career is. In a nutshell, it’s a barometer of how hot she has been over the past year.”
The final list, which is in its ninth year, was culled from more than 450 total entries.
The multi-faceted Patrick also serves as Genesis Magazine’s publisher. Additionally, she topped the list in 2004 and 2005.
“Tera had a huge year in and out of adult,” said Dan Davis, editor-in-chief of Genesis. “Between her best-selling movies like ‘Reign of Tera 2,’ ‘Teradise Island’ and ‘inTERAactive;’ her appearances on TV shows like ‘Supergroup;’ movie cameo in ‘Blades of Glory;’ landing on the cover of FHM and all of her media coverage no matter what the medium, this truly was the year of Tera.”
Rounding out the Top 10, in order, were Stormy Daniels, Jesse Jane, Carmen Luvana, Hillary Scott, Jenna Jameson, Jenna Haze, Savanna Samson, Teagan Presley and Sasha Grey.
“Obviously it’s hard for me to make an unbiased comment as Tera’s husband, best friend and manager, but I have always believed in her and I am so proud of her,” said Teravision CEO Evan Seinfeld, “I feel fortunate to have been able to help her realize her dreams and goals.”
