THE
GLAMOUR GIRLS HOT 100:
April
4, 2001
by Steve Sullivan
Oscar smiled upon Julia Roberts, and one of her rewards is the Number One ranking in the Glamour Girls Hot 100. Julia’s winning margin over #2 Jennifer Lopez was small (353 points to 350), so she may not be able to retain the top spot next time; but with her status as Queen of Hollywood stronger than ever, and two more films coming later this year, Julia will have a lot more to smile about during 2001. Catherine Zeta Jones is #3 once again, while Pamela Anderson slips from #1 to #4. There are three new entries in the Top Ten this week. Penelope Cruz returns to the elite group at #8 with the critically praised drama “Blow,” followed by Jaime Bergman (with new episodes of “Son of the Beach”). Supermodel Heidi Klum makes her first appearance in the Top Ten, jumping from #18 to #10 thanks to a sexy new cover layout in Arena, her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit layout, and a role in the film “Blow Dry.” An accumulation of magazine covers, hit records, and Grammies enables Beyonce’ Knowles of Destiny’s Child to surge from #24 to #15. The survey’s biggest moves came courtesy of starring movie roles: Jennifer Love Hewitt leaps from #50 to #18 on the strength of the sexy comedy “Heartbreakers” (the same film also carries Sigourney Weaver into the Top 50); Ashley Judd soars 40 positions to #21 with the romantic comedy “Someone Like You”; and Shannon Elizabeth rises from #56 to #28 despite the critical trashing taken by “Tomcats.” The week’s highest debut is Playboy cover girl and E! TV’s “Wild On” host Brooke Burke (#48). And now, the Hot 100 for April 4, 2001. The numbers on the far left for each gal are her peak chart position to date; for those who have achieved the #1 position, the number of surveys on which she ranked #1 (in parentheses); and total weeks on the Hot 100 (this is our 14th survey, each covering two weeks, or 28 weeks in all), followed by her last three rankings, from oldest to most recent. 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: stevesul. #1 (1), 28 wks ) 1.JULIA ROBERTS: A recent People cover proclaimed this “Julia’s Great Year,” and indeed few actresses in motion picture history have ever been hotter. Her fiery (and buxom) performance in “Erin Brockovich” brought her the Oscar as best actress, and a memorably exuberant acceptance speech. Julia’s quirky comedy-adventure “The Mexican” with Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini has earned over $65 million—no surprise for the first female star ever whose pictures have collectively grossed over $1 billion. The highest-ranking actress on the Forbes Celebrity 100, Ms. Roberts’ annual earnings of $19 million will be far higher this year with the upcoming films “America’s Sweethearts” (this summer) and “Ocean’s Eleven.” (at year’s end) The pretty woman’s Oscar-triumphant magazine covers include the Apr. 2 Us, Apr. 6 Entertainment Weekly, and Apr. 9 People, to join other recent covers including the April Redbook, the April Looks, and the March In Style. Fan site: http://www2.netdoor.com/~cplowe/julia.htm. #1 (5), 28 wks (1) (1) (2) 2.JENNIFER LOPEZ: We can always count on Jennifer daring to bare: her startlingly transparent gown caused prudish ABC to show her only from the shoulders up while making an Oscar presentation. The Latina bombshell’s album “J. Lo” debuted at #1 on the Billboard chart while its leadoff single “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” (with sexy video) zipped into the Top Five. Her romantic comedy “The Wedding Planner” has earned close to $60 million but is fading fast. Jennifer is the undisputed #1 at newsstands; her latest magazine covers include the March Italian GQ (alternate cover) and March issue of Looks, a sizzling, barely-clad feature in the Feb. 15 Rolling Stone, and the Feb. issues of In Style and Marie Claire. Lycos ranks her as the #3 Most Wanted Woman on the Internet for the past year behind Britney and Pam. Link to: www.jenniferlopez.com. #1 (1), 28 wks ) 3.CATHERINE ZETA JONES: She’s never been less than radiant on screen, but Catherine’s compelling performance as the very enterprising wife of an international drug dealer in “Traffic” proves that her extraordinary beauty is matched by her acting prowess. Even though she didn’t share in the film’s big four-Oscar night, Catherine is one of the reasons why it has earned over $100 million. Mrs. Michael Douglas graces the covers of the March Italian GQ (including a hot pin-up poster), March British Vogue, and the February issues of Biography, Total Film, and Allure. Coming later this year: “America’s Sweethearts” with Julia Roberts. Tribute site: http://www.gla.ac.uk/Clubs/WebSoc/~9404943w/zeta/main.html. #1 (1), 28 wks ) 4.PAMELA ANDERSON: “V.I.P.” has brilliantly recast Pam’s image, showing off both her abundant pulchritude and gift for goofy fun. A personal triumph for its star as executive producer, it seems sure to continue as a syndication smash as long as she wants to do it. She has a long cover feature in the February Arena, a superb 2-page near-topless pose in the March Vanity Fair, and is featured in Playboy Sexy Celebrities. Pam ranked second among female stars only to Britney for the past year in Lycos searches, and remains in that position now. Link to: http://www.pamwatch.com. #1 (2), 28 wks ) 5.BRITNEY SPEARS: For many fans, a highlight of Oscar night was the premiere of Britney’s hot-to-trot new Pepsi commercial, which even had old Bob Dole breathing heavily. The teen vixen is the world’s #1 female celebrity according to Forbes, which ranks her #4 overall (Tom Cruise is #1) with annual earnings of $38.5 million. Further boosting her position in Forbes is Britney's status as queen of the Internet; Lycos ranks her as the #1 subject of Web searches over the past year. Her album has slipped below the Billboard Top 50. “Britney In Hawaii” recently reached #1 on the home video sales charts. The 19-year-old’s recent magazine covers include Celebrity Sleuth Vol. 14 #3 (which ranks her as the #2 babe of the year). Link to: www.britneyspears.com. #1 (1), 28 wks (11) (11) (6) 6.ELIZABETH HURLEY: Liz wasn’t up for any awards, but at the post-Oscar parties she was a focus of much attention walking arm-in-arm with new pal Pam Anderson. Finding a new way to prove her sex-bomb credentials, she recently delighted a fan by reaching under her dress, pulling off her red panties, and bestowing them as a souvenir. Her sinfully sexy performance in “Bedazzled” took it straight to #1 in video rentals. The British stunner (who recently guested as herself on the ABC sitcom “The Job”) remains ubiquitous at newsstands. Her recent magazine appearances include the cover & 5 pages of the February French FHM, Feb. European magazine Madame Figaro (lovely cover feature), and the Jan. Italian edition of Max (3 pages enticingly topless). Tribute website: http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Bungalow/1541/ #1 (3), 28 wks ) 7.CAMERON DIAZ: Cameron’s highly praised performance as a feisty young blind woman in “Things You Can Tell Just By Looking At Her” made its national debut on Showtime. “Charlie’s Angels” has earned over $125 million, and no one is more responsible for the big-screen version’s spectacular success than the booty-shaking blonde with the irresistible smile. Her indie film “Invisible Circus” (in which she plays a ‘60s flower child who mysteriously took her own life) is now in limited release. Cameron is ranked as the world’s sexiest woman in the Feb. Stuff. Tribute website: #8, 28 wks ) 8.PENELOPE CRUZ: The Spanish enchantress reaches a new Hot 100 peak with the drug drama “Blow” in which she co-stars with Johnny Depp, now winning critical raves. Her fully-booked 2001 schedule also features the World War II romance “Captain Corelli’s Mandolin” with Nicolas Cage coming in the fall, followed by her pairing with Tom Cruise in “Vanilla Sky.” Penelope has an eye-catching topless-with-arms-akimbo cover of the March Vogue, a stunning cover feature in the March Premiere, the cover & 4 pages in the March Spanish GQ, and shares the cover of the April Vanity Fair; she was also ranked as the world’s #1 babe in the Jan. Loaded. Fan site: http://www.elmaky.com/pcruz/introen.php3. #3, 28 wks ) 9.JAIME BERGMAN: The FX network’s “Son of the Beach,” with Jaime as the abundantly endowed B.J., recently began its second season. Miss January 1999 has 4 pages each in the Playboy Nude Playmates, Playboy Sexy Celebrities, and Playboy Wet & Wild. Link to: #10, 24 wks ) 10.HEIDI KLUM: The German swimsuit supermodel is impossible to escape in the magazine racks, and who would want to? She has a cleavage-baring cover & 6 pages in the April Arena; a spectacular 13 pages in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue; the cover of the April Glamour; the cover & 5 pages of lingerie poses in the Feb. German GQ; a hot semi-bare cover of the Feb. Ocean Drive, and 4 pages in Celebrity Sleuth #14-3. She plays a model (naturally) who requests a distinctive trim of her pubic hair in the comedy "Blow Dry." Tribute site: http://www.undeniable.com/heidi/ #3, 28 wks (9) (9) (8) 11.JESSICA ALBA: “Sci-fi’s siren for the next generation”: that’s how the cover story of the March 16 Entertainment Weekly aptly describes the fetching 19-year-old star of Fox’s “Dark Angel.” She’s also the cover girl of the April issues of Sci-Fi and Seventeen, and the March Dreamwatch magazines. Link to: www.jessicaalba.net. #5, 28 wks (6) (5) (7) 12.TYRA
BANKS: Perhaps the world’s most
beautiful woman, Tyra has a gorgeous cover with the Feb. issue of Fit,
4 pages in the Mar.-Apr. premiere issue of To the Maxx, a sensational 1-page near-topless pose in the Feb. Gear, and is featured in the Victoria’s Secret
catalogs and TV ads. Fan
website: http://members.nbci.com/b_tyra/ #4, 28 wks ) 13.SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR: “Buffy, the Vampire Slayer” just seems
to keep getting better, thanks in large part to Sarah’s powerhouse
performances—most dramatically responding to the recent on-screen death
of Buffy’s mother.
She’s on the covers of the Spring Buffy, the Vampire Slayer
magazine (of course), Feb. Sci-Fi
magazine, and the Jan. British Esquire (glamorous feature).
Official “Buffy” website: http://www.buffy.com/ #14, 7 wks (29) (19) (15) 14.ELSA BENITEZ: Great glamour-girl careers can be built on the foundation of a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover, and the lovely 24-year-old from Sonora, Mexico is being seen by millions now as bikini-clad cover girl of the world’s biggest-selling issue (although she has only four pages inside the magazine). For contrast, Elsa shows off a fresh girl-next-door look on the cover of the March Self. Photo gallery: http://www.convergentus.se/elsabenitez/ #15, 24 wks (28) (26) (24) 15.BEYONCE’ KNOWLES and
Destiny’s Child: Girl group led by
foxy 19-year-old Beyonce’ has a new Top Ten smash with
“Survivor,” after spending 11 big weeks at #1 on Billboard
with “Independent
Women”; the group won two Grammies, including Beyonce’s citation as
co-writer of the R&B Song of the Year (“Say My Name”). The ladies are on the covers of the
April issues of Stuff (with Beyonce at
her most alluring), Black Men
(quite sexy in swimsuits), and Cosmo Girl, among others, and Beyonce’ is ranked as the world’s #4
sexiest babe in the Feb. Stuff. Her tribute website: http://bounce.to/beyonceboudoir/ #10, 28 wks (12) (10) (13) 16.FAITH HILL: Faith’s trophy room may be running out of space with the three Grammy Awards she recently took home, to go along with the three American Music Awards she’d earned a few weeks earlier. Billboard cited “Breathe” as the #1 pop single on the past year’s charts, and “The Way You Love Me” has had a long run in the Top 20. She’s the radiant cover girl of the April In Style. Link to: http://www.faithhill.com. #6, 28 wks (10) (12) (14) 17.MADONNA: Perhaps feeling that she had gone too long without a good
controversy, Madonna got her latest video for “What It Feels Like For a
Girl” banned from MTV for its violence. The Material Girl’s single
“Don’t Tell Me” reached the Billboard Top Five.
She’s on the covers of the March issues of British GQ and Interview, and the Feb. issues of Elle, British Elle, and The Net; also ranked as the past year’s 7th most popular
woman on the Internet according to Lycos.

screen. She has the cover & 6

Monica has the distinction of being the cover girl (with nice cleavage pose) of the premiere issue of Russian GQ (March); her many other magazine appearances include the Feb.

How the Glamour Girls Hot 100 Is Compiled Glamour
girls earn points for each biweekly 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 points than a bland role in a
bigger hit. Also, critical acclaim
can earn the same credit as box office dollars. 2)
Magazines: Approximately 150 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 month or two
count at reduced value. Covers
earn more points than inside features; top-level magazines (Playboy, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, etc.) are accorded higher point totals
than others; nude or semi-nude layouts get extra credit. Newspapers (most notably the London
Sun and USA Today) and pin-up calendars are also included
in this category. 3)
TV: What’s on the tube during the
two-week survey period, including not only series but movies airing on the
networks and cable plus appearances on late-night talk shows; Nielsen ratings
and Emmy/Golden Globe awards 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); Yahoo’s 100 most
popular women based on total websites, Yahoo clubs, and auction items; and the
Bomis Report rankings of models, porn stars, and others with the most website
hits. Selected Web sites are also included, most notably Gateway to Eden, the
Playboy Cyber Club, Mystique, IGN for Men, Ask Men.com, Top Net Models, Famous
Centerfolds, Women of Desire, Undeniable Stars, 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 about half the weight of the above “Big
Five.” 7)
Sports: Glamorous gals who earn athletic
achievements during the survey period; during non-Olympic periods, this is
usually a low-value category. 8)
Other: Broadway; books. Usually not a factor. 9)
Beauty
and Sex Appeal: Finally,
my personal evaluations of the ladies, based on their recent media
