Although it may not seem so, the list is based on a European perspective of things. Newcomers in this months chart: - Julia Ormond is more or less a newcomer in Hollywood but has already worked with actors such as Brad Pitt, Sean Connery and Richard Gere. She is definitely as star in rising, so keep an eye out for her. - Drew Barrymore is back again! It seems as if her ambition right now is to become the new Madonna and just as her idol, she has learned how to get publicity (not necessarily good) in the media. - Eva Herzigova, supermodel who gave the wonderbra a face (or should I say a bust?). She is the most successful model coming out of the former eastern Europe and it is always nice to get a new nationality on the list (there are women from 9 countries in the list right now). - Patricia Arquette is currently starring in the new John Borman movie about Burma ("Beyond Rangoon"). By the way, sister Rosanna just fell out of the list this month. - Uma Thurman has sort of always been right below the top 50 in this list and has now climbed back into the list again. Movers: _ The new number one is Scandinavian supermodel Helena Christensen. One of the most beautiful women in the world and always working hard. - Elizabeth Hurley is the most talked about woman right now. She will probably never be as hot as she is now, so hopefully she takes advantage of the situation and gets herself some good parts in movies. - Sandra Bullock is now also officially a superstar in Europe. American readers of this list have of course thought of her as a star for over a year now, but Sandra has up to now not really been all that hot in Europe. - Kylie Minogue is all of a sudden back everywhere in Europe. Magazines, tv shows all shows her. Her new movie is as far as I know not coming out in some months yet ("Street Fighter" is of course already out). Almost made it into the list (we'll see next month): - Jennifer Anniston (from "the Edge" and "Friends") - Izabella Scurupco (the new Bond Girl) - Emmanuelle Beart (From french movie "Une Femme Francaise") - Julia Louis-Dreyfuss ("Seinfeld") - Monica Seles (tennis player)
