So I came across an article saying that Vanity Fair anointed Angelina Jolie the "Modern Day Helen of Troy". Now I think she's pretty, but Helen was considered the most beautiful woman in the world, and I just can't get there with Angelina. So I pose the question to you all...

Who is your Modern Day Helen of Troy?

I have to agree with you. She is extremely overrated. Yes, she is attractive, but she is hardly as beautiful as they make her out to be.

I don't think I could answer your question, though. There are too many things that go into what I consider beautiful that I couldn't say who is the most.

Please try not to be shocked and confused by my completely unpredictable choice.


ETA -- better? By which I mean viewable?

I know exactly who and what you're linking to (I have been awake at least once in the nine years I've known you) but the website must have disabled linking to .jpgs because every link returns an error.

What jerkfaces! It was working yesterday.

I'd actually agree. The woman is stunningly beautiful.

I find many other qualities in women extremely appealing (a nice scent, flirtiness, talent etc) but she is a total knockout (for want of a better word.)

Yes, SHOCKED. The Coat is beautiful but Ms. Dunst looks comatose. I'm with Liv Tyler till the end

(I think kirsten is gorgeous, though. Clicked on every picture....)

I thought at least one person would nominate Morena Baccarin...

I've thought Jaclyn Smith was the most beautiful woman in the world since the day I watched my first episode of Charlie's Angels. Just recently, I've seen photos of Jessica Alba without make up. And you know what? She's still impossibly hot.

I think Sophia Loren's purty.
