Kate Hudson, People’s ‘most beautiful’ cover girl
Actress Kate Hudson has been named top of People magazine’s annual “100 Most Beautiful People list,” the celebrity magazine announced on its website Wednesday.
The 29-year-old single mother and Oscar-nominated star of “Almost Famous” told People that growing up she had never paid much attention to her appearance.
“I was a tomboy. I had three brothers. I was the girl with the dress on that always came back in the house filthy with scrapes and bruises,” Hudson said.
Even now, Hudson says she doesn’t spend much time on pampering herself.
“I don’t even remember the last time I got a manicure,” said Hudson, who has a four-year-old son, Ryder, with her ex-husband, Black Crowes front-man Chris Robinson.
“I even got to the point where I started waxing my own legs because I don’t have the time. I’d rather be home with Ryder sitting there waxing my legs. I haven’t gotten a facial in a million years. I don’t do those kinds of things.”
Hudson is the daughter of Goldie Hawn, an Oscar-winning comedienne and Hollywood starlet of the 1970s and 1980s.
Other stars on the “Most Beautiful” list include Salma Hayek, Eva Longoria, Tony Parker and Julianne Moore.
The full list is published in People’s next edition which hits US news stands on Friday.
More Fantastic Art
Brian Walker is a contemporary digital artist, who makes scenes that meld illustration and fashion with an element of surprise. Walker takes his inspiration from Dali, Magritte and David Lachapelle.
Artist says on it, “I would say our processes are similar, I use a lot of concept sketching as my works are highly manipulated, I have to plan almost every detail before a shoot to make sure I have every element I need. I meet with the make up artist, models and stylist to make sure things run smoothly and that they share my vision.”
New Sexiest Woman Named
A new star jumps 64 places to knock Jessica Alba from the top spot in an annual online poll.
Yes guys, actress Megan Fox was named the world’s sexiest woman on Wednesday by an annual online poll , while the world’s most Googled woman, Britney Spears, barely scraped in at No. 100 after a shocker of a year.
Fox, 21, who starred in last year’s hit movie “Transformers,” grabbed the title from actress Jessica Alba, 26, topping online men’s magazine FHM Online’s reader poll of the 100 Sexiest Women in the World for 2008.
Alba dropped to No. 3, coming behind American actress and former model Jessica Biel but ahead of Canadian actress Elisha Cuthbert who was ranked fourth after appearing in horror movie “Captivity” last year. U.S actress and singer Scarlett Johansson, 23, rounded out the top five.
“Megan Fox is the deserving winner of this year’s FHM title. She’s young, she’s hot, she’s a rising star and her sex appeal has definitely transformed this year’s list. She’s got a great future ahead of her,” said FHM Online U.S. Editor JR Futrell.
Fox debuted on the list at No. 68 in 2006 and was ranked No. 65 last year. But playing the lead female role in “Transformers,” a blockbuster $700 million hit at worldwide box offices, markedly raised her profile.
Also in the top 10 were Emmanuelle Chriqui, Hilary Duff Tricia Helfer, Blake Lively and Kate Beckinsale.
Newcomers to the list included Victoria Beckham aka Posh Spice from British pop band the Spice Girls, who moved to Los Angeles with her husband, English soccer player David Beckham, last year. She made her debut at No. 99.
Spears, 26, whose career has been buried under an avalanche of personal and mental health problems, managed to make the list at No. 100, a steep decline from 2004 when she was voted the world’s sexiest woman.
FHM’s 100 Sexiest Women in the World poll is now in its 14th year with nearly 9 million votes cast this year by FHM readers worldwide to choose the sexiest women in film, television, music, sports, and fashion.
This year’s list also included reality TV stars to reflect the genre’s increasing popularity with three girls from the “The Hills” making the list, including Heidi Montag at No. 44 and Audrina Patridge at No. 80 and Lauren Conrad at No. 95.
From “Dancing with the Stars,” actress Shannon Elizabeth returned to the list at No. 46 after being absent last year. She was joined by Cheryl Burke at No. 40 and Karina Smirnoff at No. 78, who made their debuts.
“It’s no surprise to us that so many reality stars made this year’s list,” said Futrell. ‘The Hills’ is one of the most popular shows on MTV, and ‘Dancing with the Stars’ is the No. 2 reality show in America after ‘American Idol.’ We expect even more to be added next year.”
Stars’ Dramatic Weight Changes
Is it healthy?
Former supermodel and TV personality Tyra Banks continues to argue that women shouldn’t obsess about their figure flaws.
