THE
GLAMOUR GIRLS HOT 100:
February
7, 2001
by Steve Sullivan
It’s Jennifer’s world; we’re all just living in it. Jennifer Lopez not only roars back into the #1 Glamour Girl position, she does so in record-shattering style. Until now, the record for most Glamour Girl points accumulated in a single survey period (since the initial survey on October 4) was 350 points achieved by Cameron Diaz back on November 16. Jennifer obliterates that mark with an astonishing 487 points, earned by her rankings of #1 in magazines, #1 in movies, #1 on the music charts, #2 on home video, and #3 on the Internet. Consider Jen-Lo the Mark McGuire of babe-dom: like Mac’s 70 home runs, La Lopez has established a record that may be impossible to break—unless she does it herself. If Jennifer is our McGuire, Britney Spears is our Sammy Sosa. With her #1 Internet ranking, hit records, magazines, and Super Bowl halftime performance, Britney tied Cameron’s old record of 350 points, which would have been good for #1 in any other survey, yet is left far behind her Latina rival. These two formidable ladies may have locks on the top two positions for at least the next few weeks. In the face of such glamour dynamos, Catherine Zeta Jones couldn’t feel badly about slipping from #1 to #3 with an excellent total of 297 points. Miriam Gonzalez, the March Playboy Playmate and one of the most electrifying centerfolds in years, used her gatefold as a rocket ride to the top, soaring all the way from #37 to #10. Other big movers this week are Denise Richards (jumping from #86 to #34 with the early box office success of “Valentine”), “Roswell” babe Katherine Heigl (also using “Valentine” to leap to #45), “Hannibal” co-star Julianne Moore (with a strong Top 50 debut on the eve of the film’s release), and former Playmate Victoria Zdrok (taking a big jump with an array of magazine appearances). And now, the Hot 100 for February 7, 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 10th survey, each covering two weeks, or 20 weeks in all), followed by her three most recent rankings. 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 (3), 20 wks (2) (1) (2) 1.JENNIFER LOPEZ: She is now, truly, the Queen of All Media. Jennifer’s formula for smashing the old Glamour Girl survey record: Her romantic screen teaming with Matthew McConaughey, “The Wedding Planner,” was #1 at the box office for its first two weeks despite lukewarm reviews. The 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; she also earned a Grammy nomination for best dance recording. The Latina stunner is the undisputed #1 at newsstands; her current magazine covers include a sizzling, barely-clad feature in the Feb. 15 Rolling Stone, the Feb. issues of In Style, Marie Claire, Mira, and La Revista Christina, and the January issues of Allure, New Woman, and Seventeen; the Feb. Stuff calls her the year’s 2nd sexiest woman, and the January Sky magazine has a good pin-up poster. Lycos ranks her as the #3 Most Wanted Woman on the Internet for the past year behind Britney and Pam. And her creepy flick “The Cell” hit #2 on the home video charts. Link to: www.jenniferlopez.com. #1 (2), 20 wks ) 2.BRITNEY SPEARS: The newly 19-year-old Britney can’t help but feel a bit frustrated by ranking a distant #2 despite a sensational two weeks, but her time to return to #1 will come eventually. Her Super Bowl halftime appearance was brief but hot, performing with Aerosmith while clad in a scanty bosom- and midriff-revealing outfit. Britney’s position as queen of the Internet has been officially certified by Lycos, which ranks her as the #1 subject of Web searches over the past year. Her album is still in the Billboard Top 30, with latest single “Stronger” just shy of the Top Ten; Rolling Stone readers voted her #1 female singer, and she’s nominated for two Grammies. The teen titan’s current magazine covers include the Feb. issues of Teen People (very pretty cover feature as the Readers’ Choice for top pop singer) and the German mag Tomorrow, the Jan. 19 OK! (British), Jan. Entertainment Teen, and a Britney 2000 Scrapbook; she’s also seen in the January Playboy (which reprises her MTV striptease performance), and the Jan. Arena has a terrific 2-page pose in teensie cheerleader outfit. Link to: #1 (1), 20 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. The Golden Globe nominee now awaits a possible Oscar nod for her role in the film that was named Best Picture by the New York Film Critics Circle. Mrs. Michael Douglas graces the covers of the February issues of Biography, Total Film, and Allure, plus the Jan. Vanity Fair (splendidly glamorous layout) and the Jan. Ladies Home Journal. Tribute site: http://www.gla.ac.uk/Clubs/WebSoc/~9404943w/zeta/main.html. #1 (3), 20 wks ) 4.CAMERON DIAZ: A model of consistency, Cameron follows her three straight #1 Glamour Girl rankings with four consecutive surveys in the #4 position. “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; she’s on the cover of the Dec. British FHM (“Angels” cast cover plus three sexy solo pages), and the “Angels” share cover stories in the January issues of Look and Tatler. Tribute website: http://www.cameron-diaz.com/ #4, 20 wks ) 5.SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR: “Buffy, the Vampire Slayer” just seems to keep getting better, thanks in large part to Sarah’s powerhouse performances. She’s on the covers of the Feb. Sci-Fi magazine, the Jan. British Esquire (glamorous feature), Jan. X-Pose, the Jan. American Woman, and Dec.-Jan. Cosmo Girl (which named her Girl of the Year). Official “Buffy” website: #2, 20 wks ) 6.PAMELA ANDERSON: “V.I.P.” has brilliantly recast Pam’s image, showing off both her abundant pulchritude and gift for goofy fun. Her recent magazine appearances include Playboy Sexy Celebrities, Playboy Lingerie Calendar and Jan.-Feb. FHM 2001 calendar.. Pam ranked second only to Britney for the past year in Lycos searches. Link to: http://www.pamwatch.com. #1 (1), 20 wks (3) (6) (7) 7.ELIZABETH HURLEY: Liz’s sinfully sexy performance in “Bedazzled” is gone from most theaters, but the British bombshell remains ubiquitous at newsstands. Her recent magazine appearances include the Jan. Italian edition of Max (3 pages enticingly topless), and the covers of Dec. British Esquire (superbly glamorous cover & 6 pages), and the December issues of Empire and Film Review. Tribute website: http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Bungalow/1541/ #8, 10 wks ) 8.MONICA BELLUCI: Perhaps not since Bo Derek in “10” has a movie’s entire plot so totally revolved around the heart-stopping beauty of one woman as the current film “Malena,” which wonderfully showcases the Italian brunette’s classic beauty (including brief topless scenes) as an exceptionally alluring World War II widow. Monica’s many magazine appearances include the Feb. Esquire (semi-nude cover & 7 pages); the Feb. Maxim (6 pages); the Feb. Playboy (photo as Babe of the Month); and the cover & 9 pages, including superb nudes, in the Dec. Spanish GQ.

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 in late-night talk shows; Nielsen ratings
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 Yahoo’s 100 most
popular women based on total websites, Yahoo clubs, and auction items. Selected Web sites are also included,
most notably Gateway to Eden, the Playboy Cyber Club, Mystique, Versus Online,
IGN for Men, Ask Men.com, Top Net Models, Famous Centerfolds, Women of Desire,
Babesites, 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. 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
appearances. Women who do not earn
significant points in the above 8 categories aren’t eligible here. Comments
