17, 2002
by Steve Sullivan
Cameron Diaz reigns once again as the #1 Glamour Girl for the first time since January with her sexy performance in “The Sweetest Thing” (despite a mediocre box officeng) and magazine covers including Rolling Stone. The queen of Latina pop, Shakira, who seized the #1 position in last week’s unpublished chart, is #2 with her huge pop chart success and numerous covers. Jennifer Lopez, still riding the top of the Billboard singles chart, inches back up to #3, followed by Oscar goddess Halle Berry and Aussie disco tart Kylie Minogue at #5. The hottest body in the United Kingdom, Kelly Brook, leaps to #6 thanks to a sizzling cover layout in German GQ and other magazine uncoverages. Britney Spears (on the cover of Arena and British Elle) is #7, followed by Czech bombshell Veronika Zemanova (#8), Playboy cover girl Kiana Tom, and (making her first entry into the Top Ten) “High Crimes” star Ashley Judd. Roaring all the way up to #13 (from honorable mention two weeks ago) is Colombian sex bomb Sofia Vergara, thanks to her terrific cover layout in Stuff and movie role in “Big Trouble.” Katie Holmes attains a personal-best ranking of #15 with her steamy GQ cover. Slovakian supermodel Adriana Sklenarikova jumps to #18 with her titillating cover spread in British Maxim. The debut this weekend of “The Scorpion King”—and revealing cover features in Maxim and Total Movie—send Kelly Hu soaring to #20. Kirsten Dunst, less than three weeks before she romances “Spider-Man” on the big screen, leaps to #22 with her cover feature in Vanity Fair and current role in “The Cat’s Meow.” Angelina Jolie surges to #23 with cover stories in Ocean Drive and Vogue, and her debut next week in “Life or Something Like It.” Rising to her highest position yet at #24 is curvaceous Aria Giovanni for her nude appearances in Mystique magazine and the Playboy Book of Lingerie. A steamy hit music video and a Marilyn Monroe-styled TV ad bring tennis tease Anna Kournikova up to #25, while a Movieline cover helps Sarah Michelle Gellar rebound to #27. Texas hottie Kim Smith catapults 48 positions to #29 with her teasing cover layout in Gear. Ashanti, the latest R&B princess (with three current hit singles and the new #1 album), is one of the week’s strongest movers at #30 (all the way up from #99 two weeks ago). Other glamour girls on the move: #34 Victoria Zdrok (who will shortly make the leap from Playboy centerfold to Penthouse Pet); “Boobs from Brazil” Gisele Bundchen moving to #39 with the Harpers Bazaar cover; #43 Sandra Bullock (her film “Murder By Numbers” now debuting); #48 Katie Price aka Jordan (hot layout in Front); jazz chanteuse Norah Jones at #49; Mystique magazine cover girl Katia Corriveau at #53; and “Sweetest Thing” co-star Christina Applegate at #59. And now, the Hot 100 for April 17, 2002. Rankings are compiled on a weekly basis, although only the surveys for the 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 (this is our 41st published survey, each covering two weeks, or 82 weeks in all), and by her last six weekly 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.

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. Oscars, Golden Globes,
and other honors are included; 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 few weeks
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 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 first-run movies and 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), 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, Famous Centerfolds, Danni’s
Hard Drive, Mac & Bumble, Adversus, Candy Dreams, 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 about half the weight of 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. Comments and suggestions are always welcome; write us at: stevesul. |
