THE GLAMOUR GIRLS HOT 100:

Februry 4, 2004

 

by Steve Sullivan

 

Stunning audiences with her transformative performance in “Monster,” Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner Charlize Theron of South Africa earns a new honor with her first time as Number One Glamour Girl. Making Glamour Girl Hot 100 history by skyrocketing all the way from #138 to #2, Janet Jackson shocked the world by baring her breast to some 90 million U.S. viewers of her Super Bowl halftime performance; CBS was furious and the FCC launched an investigation into alleged indecency, but Janet’s male fans were never happier. Jennifer Connelly—one week after her performance in “House of Sand and Fog” enabled to her to reach the #1 position for the first time—is #3. Beyonce’ Knowles, who has spent the last 31 consecutive weeks in the Top Five (five of those weeks at #1), is #4 with her splendid performance of the National Anthem at the Super Bowl, six Grammy nominations, #5 smash “Me, Myself & I,” and magazine covers including Teen Vogue. Ukrainian-born wonder woman Victoria Zdrok, the first Playboy Playmate to become Penthouse Pet of the Year, climbs to #5.

 

“Friends” sweetie Jennifer Aniston rises to #6 as the $66 million earned by her comedy “Along Came Polly” through its third weekend proves her appeal translates well to the big screen; she’s on the covers of Premiere & Allure. Recent chart-topper Nicole Kidman, now #7, was bypassed (like Jennifer) in Oscar nominations, but her film “Cold Mountain” has earned close to $80 million; she’s on the covers of Marie Claire & Paris Match. Despite a quickie Vegas marriage & annullment that triggered a fresh round of satire, Britney Spears is #8 with her fast-climbing new single (with saucy video) “Toxic,” and cover features including Spanish GQ, Celebrity Sleuth, & British Glamour. Adult cinema goddess Jenna Jameson hits #9 as cover girl and Penthouse Pet of the Month. Grammy-winning singer/songwriter Alicia Keys edges back up to #10 with her recent chart-topping album and its Top Five single “You Don’t Know My Name.”

And now, the Hot 100 for February 4, 2004. Rankings are compiled on a weekly basis, although only the surveys for even-numbered weeks are published here. The numbers on the far left for each gal are her peak chart position to date, total weeks on the Hot 100, and by her last six weekly rankings, from oldest to most recent. (This is our 88th published survey dating back to October 2000, each covering two weeks; retroactive biweekly charts covering the period from December 1999 through September 2000 have been compiled, for a grand total of 219 charted weeks.)

Two large heart symbols ©© can be found to the left of all women who have spent at least 10 weeks in the Number One position, or have reached #1 with at least 100 weeks in the Top Ten.

A single large heart symbol © is to the left of all women who have spent 1 to 9 weeks in the Number One position, or who have previously ranked as the #1 Glamour Girl of the Year.

Women who have either: a) reached the #2 or #3 position (regardless of total weeks) ; b) spent at least 10 weeks in the Top Ten; c) reached #4-10 with 100 or more weeks on the Hot 100; or d) ranked as one of the top three glamour girls of the year during the past 10 years have a medium-large heart © to the left of their entries.

Glamour girls who have either: a) reached the #4 or #5 position (regardless of total weeks); b) reached #6-10 with at least 50 weeks on the Hot 100; c) spent at least 100 weeks on the Hot 100; or d) ranked as one of the Top Ten glamour girls of the year during the past 10 years have a medium heart © to the left of their entries.

Finally, anyone else who has reached the Top Ten (regardless of total weeks), or reached #11-30 with at least 50 weeks on the Hot 100, has a smaller heart © to their left.

 

Better late than never, the Top 500 Glamour Girls of 2002—with full discussions of that year’s highlights for all 500 ladies, and a complete alphabetical index—will be online here any day now. The link can be found on the survey cover page. (Our goal is to have the Top 500 for 2003 up by the middle of this year—here’s hoping!)

 

An explanation of how the charts are compiled can be seen at the bottom of the survey. I welcome any comments or suggestions sent to: steve, or steve.sullivan7.

Worth; she has a semi-nude love scene with Christina Ricci. In a different kind of honor, Charlize has been declared the #1 most desired woman of 2003 by the website Ask Men.com. Charlize, 28, offers up a remarkable full-page nude (slightly covered, but one nipple exposed) by Richard Avedon in the January 26 New Yorker; and has cover stories in Los Angeles Confidential, the February 1 Parade, and the February Jane, and has 1 page in the Feb. 6 Entertainment weekly.

© #1, 92 wks ) 2.JANET JACKSON: Creating one of the biggest media sensations in glamour-girl history, Janet bared a breast at the conclusion of her February 1 Super Bowl halftime performance before an estimated U.S. TV audience of nearly 90 million, and all hell broke loose. At the end of a steamy duet with Justin Timberlake—who had promised earlier in the segment, “I’ll get you naked by the end of this song”—he reached across her black bustier costume and pulled off a piece of fabric, leaving her right breast exposed except for a silver, sun-shaped “nipple shield,” with a portion of her nipple still clearly visible. CBS cut away from the half-topless performance after they realized what had happened, but millions of TiVo users replayed it in slo-mo (the biggest usage surge in TiVo history), and Internet fans savored stills of the amazing moment. The NFL and CBS issued apologies, the FCC launched an investigation into the alleged public indecency that could result in hefty fines for the network—and glamour girl fans loved every second of it. Conveniently, Janet’s new single ”Just a Little While” was rush-released to radio, and her album “Damita Jo” may be moved up from its scheduled March 30 release. Janet, 37, also has 4 pages in the March Celebrity Sleuth. Adding to Janet’s sexual allure is the fact that she has repeatedly declared herself to be a “size queen.” (1999-2004 Glamour Girl ranking: #25) (2 weeks at #1; 37 weeks in Top Ten) Fan club: www.miss-janet.com/ Official site: www.janet-jackson.com/

How the Glamour Girls Hot 100 Is Compiled

Glamour girls earn credit for each weekly chart in the following categories:

1)     Movies: The current Top 60 at the box office; films that recently left theaters; and pictures scheduled for release in the coming weeks. Note that a glamorous role in a mid-level film can earn more credit than a bland role in a bigger hit. Oscars, Golden Globes, and other honors are included; also, critical acclaim can earn the same credit as box office dollars.

2)     Magazines: Over 100 U.S. and international publications are included in each survey. Magazines on newsstands during the survey period count most heavily; recent magazines of the previous few weeks count at reduced value. Covers earn more points than inside features; top-level magazines (Playboy, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, Esquire, GQ, Maxim, etc.) are accorded higher point totals than others; nude or semi-nude layouts get extra credit. Newspapers (most notably USA Today) and pin-up calendars are also included in this category.

3)     TV: What’s on the tube during the survey period, including first-run movies and appearances on late-night talk shows; Nielsen ratings and Emmy/Golden Globe awards are also taken into consideration.

4)     Internet: The major factors in this category are the Lycos Top 50, a weekly chart measuring the most-searched items through the Lycos search engine (including many glamour girls), and the daily top 100 rankings by DAI News tracking the women with the most photo downloads. Selected Web sites are also included, most notably Gateway to Eden, the Playboy Cyber Club, Bomis, Ask Men.com, Danni’s Hard Drive, Simply Gorgeous, Maxim, FHM & GQ websites, and others.

5)     Music: The Billboard singles and album charts; MTV and VH-1 music video rankings as published in Billboard; European and international charts. Grammy Awards and other music industry honors are credited here.

6)     Home Video: The video sales, video rentals, and DVD sales charts as reported in Billboard and Entertainment Weekly. This category carries less weight than the above “Big Five.”

7)     Sports: Glamorous gals who earn athletic achievements during the survey period.

8)     Other: Broadway and off-Broadway theater; books.

9)     Beauty and Sex Appeal.
