No. 9 - Anna Camp
Plays Bethany Van Nuys, friend of Jane Sterling.
Jane and Roger set up Don on a blind date with Bethany. He goes on a couple more dates with her, but never sleeps with her or develops any sort of relationship, so odds are we won't see much more of Bethany.

No. 8 - Alexis Bledel
Plays Beth Dawes, wife of insurance salesman Howard Dawes.
Unlike most of the ladies on this list, she does not have an affair with Don Draper, but rather Pete Campbell. She wants to forget that it happened afterward, but that doesn't sit well with Pete, who continues to pursue her but gets rejected. Later on he meets her and finds out she is depressed and beginning electroshock therapy. Pete no longer seems to yearn for her after that.
Fun fact: Alexis Bledel recently got engaged to Vincent Kartheiser of "Mad Men," the actor who plays Pete Campbell.

No. 5 - Peyton List
Plays Jane Sterling, Roger Sterling's most recent ex-wife.
She was briefly Don's secretary, but that ended quickly when she broke up Roger's marriage and ended up marrying him. But, as their relationship became rockier, all it took was an LSD trip together to decide that they should get divorced, too.

No. 4 - January Jones
Plays Betty Francis, formerly Betty Draper.
She is married to Henry Francis, a man maneuvering around in the political world. She is Don's ex-wife and consistent thorn in his side, and she also got fat in season 5 (but that is not why we have her at #4 on this list).

No. 1 - Christina Hendricks
Plays Joan Harris, former office manager and current Junior Partner at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce.
There can only be one, and Joan has always been the #1 woman in the "Mad Men" world. She is not without her faults or troubles, but she always seems to keep it together and come out on top. We expect that to continue.
