THE
GLAMOUR GIRLS HOT 100:
March
21, 2001
by Steve Sullivan
Putting at least a temporary end to the impressive reign of Jennifer Lopez, Pamela Anderson ascends to the #1 position on the Glamour Girls Hot 100 for the first time since the charts began six months ago. Pammy’s margin was so close, however (370 points to 367), that her time at the top is likely to be brief. Catherine Zeta Jones and Britney Spears remain in the third and fourth positions behind J. Lo. Coming on strong at #5 is Julia Roberts, who could be a potent threat for the Number One position two weeks from now if Oscar smiles upon her. The biggest movers in the top portion of the chart are Jaime Bergman (surging from #29 to #11 as “Son of the Beach” begins its new season) and Carmen Electra (jumping from #21 to #12 with her role in the new comedy “Get Over It”). Heidi Klum continues to build momentum (from #30 to #18) by combining her appearance in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue with other magazine features—three positions behind SI cover girl Elsa Benitez at #15. The aforementioned “Get Over It”—plus a new Cosmo cover--enable Kirsten Dunst to leap 15 positions to #27. Oscar nominee Kate Hudson moves impressively from #57 to #35 with new magazine covers, and an awards night triumph would apply more rocket fuel to her ascent. Look for further big jumps next time by #49 Janet Jackson (with a hot new single and upcoming album); #50 Jennifer Love Hewitt (sexy new role in the film “Heartbreakers”); #56 Shannon Elizabeth (co-starring in the ribald “Tomcats”); #61 Ashley Judd (romantic comedy “Someone Like You”); and #79 Heather Graham (in “Say It Isn’t So”). And now, the Hot 100 for March 21, 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 13th survey, each covering two weeks, or 26 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. (Coming soon: the Top 300 Glamour Girls of 2000, the most complete review you’ll ever see of the hottest ladies of the past year.) #1 (1), 26 wks (6) (4) (2) 1.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 (5), 26 wks (1) (1) (1) 2.JENNIFER LOPEZ: 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 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. She ranked #34 among all showbiz personalities in the Forbes Celebrity 100 with $14.4 million in reported earnings. La Lopez recently broke up with bad boy Sean “Puffy” Combs. Link to: #1 (1), 26 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 was unfortunately denied the Oscar nod she rightly deserved for her role in the Best Picture nominee. Mrs. Michael Douglas graces the covers of the March British Vogue and the February issues of Biography, Total Film, and Allure, plus the Jan. Vanity Fair (splendidly glamorous layout). Coming later this year: “America’s Sweethearts” with Julia Roberts. Tribute site: http://www.gla.ac.uk/Clubs/WebSoc/~9404943w/zeta/main.html. #1 (2), 26 wks (2) (2) (4) 4.BRITNEY SPEARS: 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; Rolling Stone readers voted her #1 female singer. “Britney In Hawaii” recently reached #1 on the home video sales charts. The 19-year-old’s recent magazine covers include the new Celebrity Sleuth Vol. 14 #3 (which ranks her as the #2 babe of the year), and the Feb. Teen People (very pretty cover feature as the Readers’ Choice for top pop singer). Link to: www.britneyspears.com. #5, 26 wks ) 5.JULIA ROBERTS: The cover of the March 19 People proclaimed this “Julia’s Great Year,” and indeed few modern actresses have ever been hotter. Julia’s quirky comedy-adventure “The Mexican” with Brad Pitt and James Gandolfini earned a quick $50 million through its third weekend. Her fiery (and buxom) performance in “Erin Brockovich” has earned her third Oscar nomination, and anything other than a triumphant Oscar night for the superstar would be a shock. She’s already taken home the Golden Globe as Best Actress in a drama, with the Screen Actors Guild the latest among many other groups to bestow top honors upon her. The highest-ranking actress on the Forbes Celebrity 100, Ms. Roberts’ annual earnings of $19 million will be far higher this year. The pretty woman’s other recent magazine covers include the April Redbook, the March 9 Entertainment Weekly, and the March In Style.

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. #1 (3), 26 wks ) 9.CAMERON DIAZ: Cameron’s highly praised performance as a feisty young blind woman in “Things You Can Tell Just By Looking At Her” just 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: #4, 26 wks ) 10.SARAH MICHELLE GELLAR:
“Buffy, the Vampire Slayer” just seems to keep getting better,
thanks in large part to Sarah’s powerhouse performances—most

Fan website: http://www.chez.com/electra7/gone.html #10, 26 wks (13) (12) (10) 13.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, 26 wks (12) (10) (12) 14.MADONNA: The Material Girl’s latest single “Don’t Tell

For contrast, Elsa shows off a fresh girl-next-door look on the cover of the March Self.

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
appearances. Women who do not earn
significant points in the above 8 categories aren’t eligible here. Comments
