The list is as usual based on qualities such as beauty, sex
appeal, charisma, intelligence, recent efforts and charm.
Although it may not seem so, THE LIST IS BASED ON A EUROPEAN
PERSPECTIVE OF THINGS.


Newcomers in this months chart:

- Natasha Henstridge makes a strong comeback on the list. Her
  latest movie 'Maximum risk' has been doing pretty good and
  she will soon appear in several more movies. More info on
  Natasha can also be found on the gossip page at
  http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/8693/gossip.html

- Goldie Hawn has been in the movie business for quite a while
  now, but she still manages to look young and fresh (how does
  she do it?). Her movie 'The first wife's club' has been 
  getting lots of publicity and marks a great comeback for 
  one of Hollywood's classic actresses.

- Daniela Pestova seems to be really popular right now (I have
  received lots of nominations for her to be on the list).
  Daniela is a model from Eastern Europe and it's nice to
  have her on the list, since it makes it even more 
  international.

- We also say hello again to another great supermodel, Yasmeen
  Ghauri, ethnic supermodel from Canada. Welcome back!

- Big in Japan and also member of 'The first band on the moon'.
  Nina Persson sings in Swedish band The Cardigans which are
  currently touring in Europe. 

Movers:

- It's kind of hard to ignore the fact that Madonna has been
  stealing all the headlines this month, so therefore she rises to
  the number one spot after having given birth to little Lourdes.
  Another love child of hers, her new movie 'Evita', will also
  soon be released.

- Louise Nurding is one of the best looking women in the world
  right now, so she really deserved to be picked as the second
  most sexiest women in the world by FHM Magazine.

- Gwyneth Paltrow's career has really taken off now, with the
  release of Jane Austen movie 'Emma'. Who knows, maybe she'll
  even be bigger than boyfriend Brad Pitt one day.

- Emmanuelle Beart is not only starring in Mission Impossible
  right now, she also stars in the French movie 'Nelly & 
  Monsieur Arnaud'.

Almost made it into the list (we'll see next month):

- Greta Scacchi, who recently won an Emmy for Best Supporting 
  Actress in a miniseries or special for her role as Alexandra 
  in 'Rasputin'.
 
- Jamie Lee Curtis, who just has finished the second(!) shooting 
  of the sequel to 'A fish called Wanda'.

- Nikki Cox, starring in 'Unhappily ever after'. 

- Tracy Bonham, singer and violinist who assures her mom (and us) 
  that EVERYTHING'S FINE...

- Emily Watson, who got a Felix award after making her debute in 
  Lars von Trier's movie 'Breaking the waves'.

- Skin, lesbian singer in Skunk Anansie.

Comments, nominations, etc. are as always welcome. Just remember 
that a nomination such as "Ms. x should be in because of
her big hooters" hardly will be taken seriously.

Until next month,
