Angelina Jolie wins Vanity Fair’s ‘Most Beautiful’ poll

vogueheader

Several weeks ago, we reported on Vanity Fair’s online poll to determine “The Most Beautiful Woman In the World”. The list strived to be multi-cultural and anti-ageist with the inclusion of women like Halle Berry, Queen Rania of Jordan, Penelope Cruz and Catherine Deneuve. Initially, when the poll first went up, the early front-runner was Angelina Jolie with an astonishing some-odd 75% lead. The race narrowed in the final days, but Angelina still came out ahead, winning by 58%. Gisele Bundchen came in second with 9%.

We asked, you answered: 58 percent of voters responding to VF Daily’s just-closed Most Beautiful Woman in the World poll think Angelina Jolie reigns supreme. In fact, the competition wasn’t even close.

Out of the 19 women on the list, Gisele Bündchen came in second place, with 9 percent of the vote, followed by Halle Berry with 4 percent. That means we can discard all those ballots with hanging chads—there’s no recount needed here.

[From Vanity Fair]

I don’t think much of these “Most Beautiful” or “Sexiest” lists. In the past year, women as diverse as Eva Mendes, Megan Fox and Jennifer Aniston have all been named as the most or the sexiest whatever. What surprises me is the sheer number of Brangelunatics voting in this poll. Vanity Fair wouldn’t allow for multiple votes from the same computer so, in theory, that means a lot of people were voting for Angelina, rather than just few people voting multiple times.

    you can vote a million times if you discard the cookie or history that tells the site you’ve done it already…

  2. neelyo says:

    I predict that this story will have the most comments today.

  3. Ryo says:

    I love Angelina, but I never vote in these – they’re completely subjective and what cracks me up is that in like 2 months they’ll do another one and the results will be different. It’s basically a waste of time.

  4. guest says:

    why.

  5. Ernestine says:

    Yeah — maybe ten years ago, but she looks like shit now.

    Personally, I think that Gong Li should have been on that list. She’s the most gorgeous woman I’ve ever seen on film for sure.

    Oh, and JULIE. FREAKING. CHRISTIE. Where was she?!

  6. V says:

    I love Angie from way before and love her even more now for coming into her own as lovely young woman. She is indeed beautiful. However, we do not and will never know who the “most beautiful’ woman in the world is because she is probably living in the mountains somewhere, barefoot, plainly dressed, etc. Maybe the most beautiful woman star or something like that? I don’t think these polls should exist anyway, it sends the wrong message.

  7. Enonymous says:

    Well, it is not surprising that Angelina Jolie was voted “The Most Beautiful Woman In the World”, after all, that’s what the media has told us/bragged about for the past couple of years and her face in the most recognized by people. These lists are more about who is the most media exposed then appearance.

    I agree with what V said too.

  8. Shelly Shellz says:

    Ugh pleze….enuff of this b*tch

  9. Hal says:

    Gong Li is the most beautiful woman in the world.
    This poll is a joke

  10. garta says:

    Where is Gong li
    Monica Belluci
    Etc.

  11. Sauronsarmy says:

    Well of course she won, the loons weren’t going to let an easy opportunity pass!

  12. paranel says:

    Angelina Jolie is absolutely not the most beautiful woman anywhere. Who even nominated her?

  13. caldoon says:

    The most overrated woman on the planet.

  14. Zoe (The Other One) says:

    Beauty is so subjective.

    Had this contest been called ‘The Most Overrated Actress and Notorious Child Collecter’, then yes, Angie-Jo should have won.

  15. Chiara says:

    12-15 year old obsessed fans rule the net … and the Jolie sites : )

    I’m underimpressed by the, “win.”

  16. Levi says:

    Angelina is beautiful, but she is not the most beautiful woman in the world. My eldest granddaughter has that title locked down.

  17. didi says:

    Are they blind?
    ‘The Most Beautiful Woman’-certainly NOT. ‘The most overrated actress’-yes, for sure

  18. cherryblossom says:

    Wow. Jolie on a “most beautiful/sexiest/whatever” list. This is as ground breaking as saying Megan Fox has boobs.
    I hate these things.

  19. malena says:

    beautiful woman

  20. teri says:

    Angelina is beautiful inside and out.

  21. Anna P says:

    Multi voting is how Jenny dog face wins polls.

  22. allison says:

    she is extremely beautiful inside and out.

  23. heima says:

    she won just because the brangeloonies are the only kind of fans that spend so much time voting compulsively on a poll.

  24. KCjersey says:

    Aishwarya Rai should have been on the list. She is by far (IMHO) the most beautiful.

  25. dan says:

    “women as diverse as Eva Mendes, Megan Fox and Jennifer Aniston”

    what?! you call that diverse?! i hope you were being sarcastic.

  26. Tan says:

    OH stop all the negative crap. The woman is beautiful. Don’t hate her because her fans voted for her. You don’t like her…don’t vote for her. Vote for the person you believe is the most beautiful. If you don’t believe in these polls then don’t vote AT ALL and stop commenting. Jeeze it’s hardly her fault that people find her attractive. Berry in my opinion is 10 times more beautiful than Giselle and should have been tied if not closer to Jolie. I think Monica Belucci is also beautiful. Aniston appeals to her fans as well. There are many out there but Jolie won this time. Give it a rest.

  27. Codzilla says:

    Levi: Your comment about your granddaughter made me smile. Really sweet.

  28. Dumb says:

    Eva Green
    Gong Li
    Freid Pinto.

    Sorry Angie.

  29. Darlese says:

    “The Most Beautiful Woman’-certainly NOT. ‘The most overrated actress’-yes, for sure ”

    Amen.

  30. someone says:

    Thats the most ridiculous poll I have ever heard of…maybe the skinniest, most overrated actress in the world..

  31. naz says:

    I think, I am the MOST beautiful woman in the world…but no one knows me to namonate me…(none of the people who know me are into nonesense like this to namonate me…LOL)if I had all the spa treatments and the kind of pampered life style they have I would look 10 times better then what I look now…

  32. cleveland says:

    I agree KCJersey, Aishwarya Rai is absolutely gorgeous. There’s a lot of others who are very pretty. Beauty is subjective.

  33. debra says:

    Tan I was going to comment…

    But your post said it all. Thanks for the rational thought…

    I agree.

  34. debra77 says:

    OT

    But I was watching ENews.. They were showing a clip of a audio from Jamie Fox and his radio show. He said some really harsh things about Miley C. I am not a fan of Miley, but when I comment on her I remind myself that she is a child. He was very inappropriate. Then they had that Ass Ken Baker who was on to talk about Lindsey doing a momo for EHarmony.. He said not a word about Jamie Fox and his rant. So I am waiting to see if some New York post reporter does a article on this. I mean they did a big on on Angie and Brad “snubbing” people at the Oscars. Jamie was out of line. But I am going to post this on several sites to see what the response is to that. Let’s see if people call for a boycott of his movie. Lets see if there is backlash.. I doubt it. There is a double standard to live up to, now isn’t there.

  35. teleski says:

    jolie is breathtakingly beautiful….the camera never lies.

  36. AC says:

    Beauty is very subjective because I’ve never found Angelina to be a very beautiful woman.

    She’s a very talented actress and I admire her philanthropic works but the “most beautiful” woman award? Meh…

  37. frewt says:

    Yeah Jolie is beautiful but so are a lot of women – Monica Belluci and Isabelle Adjani for example. What they really mean is the most beautiful woman with the highest profile in the English speaking world.

  38. FF says:

    It’s predictable, sure. It’s also Vanity Fair.

  39. Vote for Monica Belluci

  40. Samantha says:

    I love this woman so mch. She is an amazing role model and she is truly beautiful. All the haters out there you can’t change what has been said. If ya’ll don’t like her then don’t read or her stories about her.

    TEAM ANGELINA ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
    =)

  41. Identified says:

    gee this is stupid !!
    people are so hypnotized by media telling them for ages that angelina is the most beautiful woman in the world ..
    did this poll even REALLY see ALL women in the world? how rude the title is !!
    plus .. angelina is NOT the most beautiful ..
    she’s got such a HUGE head .. a weird face shape .. small ugly eyebrowse .. big shapless nose even after plastic surgery .. short eyes .. and super big wrinkled monkey butt lips !!
    the only thing i can see beautiful in her is her eyes color ..
    and seriously .. who would ever give her a s*** if she is seen in the street and she’s not famous? even all the tons of make up and photoshopped pictures and plastic surgeries don’t make her look that beautiful ..
    this is ridiculous ..

  42. heh-heh says:

    What about the French newsbabe? I demand to see the French newsbabe!

    (Melissa Theuriau, I believe)

  43. Levi says:

    As I stated earlier, Angelina is beautiful, there is no denying she looks just like her mother, another beauty. Unfortunately often a beautiful face does not translate into a beautiful soul. However, I do not know Angelina Jolie and to consider the work she does for third world countries, that is beautiful..I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and to me my daughter and granddaughters have the titles of most beautiful women in the world, that is at least in my small and simple world.

  44. Sue Jocher says:

    she really is beutiful…wow,
    can’t deny this.
    And her movies, i like them,
    think , she’s a good actress…

  45. becca says:

    Predictable and overrated. But then again, that’s Vanity Fair for ya. *eyeroll*
