Beyoncé named ‘World’s Most Beautiful Woman’

New mum Beyoncé has plenty of reasons to smile. For one, she's pretty much the biggest name in the entertainment industry. She's also happily married to Jay-Z, she recently gave birth to her first child Blue Ivy, she has a body that the world and his wife is jealous of and she seems genuinely happy in her own skin.

Beyonce - the World's Most Beautiful Woman

And now she has another reason to smile, as People magazine names her the World's Most Beautiful Woman.

Previous winners of the 'most beautiful' title include Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry and Jennifer Lopez.

The 30-year-old star has graced the cover of the famous annual issue, which looks at the most ravishing female celebs in the world right now.

Other stars who made the coveted issue include British beauties Adele, Victoria Beckham and Katie Middleton, alongside the likes of Christina Hendricks, Charlize Theron and Blake Lively.

Beyoncé spoke about her latest accolade to the magazine.

"I feel more beautiful than I've ever felt because I've given birth," she said.

"I have never felt so connected, never felt like I had such a purpose on this earth."

She continued: "The best thing about having a daughter is having a true legacy. The word 'love' means something completely different now."

Well, maybe in years to come, Blue will too grace the cover of People magazine and become one of the most beautiful women in the world! There's every possibility that might happen...

Who on earth voted that, I didnt. She is nowhere near the most beautiful. She is just average.

What they really mean is that she is the most beautiful woman out of chosen people who are famous.

Nobody asked me to vote. But if they had I'd have given her one.

Saturday girl down our chippie is far more beautiful than this!

Beyonce seems to be getter lighter skin each time she appears in the media, probably a skin condition, just like Michael Jackson!

Like most posters ,I agree that if your not American forget it . Probably a small list of under 40 year olds & picked by a few pampered celebs . It doesn"t help a lot that folks on this side of the Atlantic fawn over these low talent overpriced "stars" who mean very little in Britain - unless your  14 .

Walk down any high street in the world & you will see equally attractive or beautiful women.

 

Looks are only skin deep,it's only the packaging,it's what makes the person as a whole that determines what is or is not most beautiful.

Take away the peroxide,remove the make up,the fake tans,the jewellery,all the additions,what is the person like without all  of this,how does that person come across in terms of personality,intellig​ence,character,conve​rsation,interaction with others,are they selfish,do they display concern for others beside themselves,these are all more important than looks alone.

 

My own invariable choice,is my thumbnail,to me,she is perfect in every way possible.

Calm down people, it's one magazine. She may not be the MOST beautiful woman in the world but she's a far cry from some of the things people are calling her here. I doubt you people are better looking than her. 

And anyway, isn't beautiful based on opinion?
