by Steve Sullivan
Halle Berry emerges triumphant in a very close battle to reclaim the #1 Glamour Girl ranking for the first time since last June 27, raking in multiple best-actress honors for “Monster’s Ball” and appearing on the covers of Marie Claire, People and Us. Right on her heels is Britney Spears, probably on her way back to #1 with her new film “Crossroads” a week away. Nicole Kidman drops from #1 to #3, with new film “Birthday Girl” and a possible Oscar nomination on the way. Jennifer Connelly is all the way up to #4 as she sweeps the awards shows for “A Beautiful Mind.” She’s followed by “Vanilla Sky” goddess Cameron Diaz, “Smallville” knockout Kelly Brook (#6), and a resurgent Jennifer Lopez (#7). Italian sizzler Monica Bellucci, who hit #8 a year ago, reaches that position again with “Brotherhood of the Wolf.” Rebecca Romijn-Stamos climbs to #9 as her new film “Rollerball” debuts this weekend, followed by Colombian pop princess Shakira. The first woman in 17 years to appear simultaneously on the covers of Playboy and Penthouse, Tera Patrick, surges to #12 and is all but assured of becoming the first porn star to hit the Top Ten shortly. Luminous Grammy favorite Alicia Keys continues to move up steadily to #14. Golden Globe winner and Rolling Stone cover girl Jennifer Garner (“Alias”) hits a new peak of #18. Although dumped by her record label, British FHM cover girl Mariah Carey is back up to #19 after singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl. A hot new Harpers Bazaar cover lifts Gisele Bundchen to #21. Aussie songstress Kylie Minogue is soaring again to #23 with a sexy cover layout in The Face, and as her single rises on the U.S. charts. Honored as the world’s sexiest athlete (of course) by ESPN, Anna Kournikova returns to #24. The March Playboy tribute to porn stars plus multiple magazine covers help lift Jenna Jameson all the way from #119 two weeks ago to #26, matching her previous peak position—now sure to be surpassed. Alley Baggett bounces back to #30 for gracing the cover of Performance Auto & Sound. No Doubt’s Gwen Stefani keeps moving up to #31 with the smash “Hey Baby” and a Rolling Stone cover. Play In the House cover babe Jaime Bergman is back up to #37. “Sex and the City” co-stars Kim Cattrall (#38) and Sarah Jessica Parker (#46) continue to ascend the chart. The teen romance “A Walk to Remember” boosts Mandy Moore to #39. The slow, steady rise of Molly Sims (#40) is still ongoing with her Celebrity Sleuth cover, followed at #41 by Maxim cover beauty Amanda Marcum. Oscar hopeful Marisa Tomei (#47 for “In the Bedroom”) and Playboy Barefoot Beauties cover girl Sandra Westgate (#48) crack the Top 50 for the first time. Also on the rise are courageous comeback queen Niki Taylor (#59) and magnificently endowed blonde Rebecca Pauline (#60). And now, the Hot 100 for February 6, 2002. Since October, rankings have been 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 36th published survey, each covering two weeks, or 72 weeks in all), and by her last six weekly rankings, from oldest to most recent.

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); 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, Famous Centerfolds,
Danni’s Hard Drive, Mac & Bumble, Adversus, 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: 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 and suggestions are always welcome; write us at: stevesul. |
