My Version of The 50 Most Beautiful People

Well, u know how, I believe it's People Magazine, has those "Beautiful People" articles? I wanted to do my own version of it. U know...give all of u a lil look into what I consider "beautiful." So here it is...in no particular order, mind u.

  1. Usher - I know a lotta u guyz are probably rolling your eyes over this right now... But hey...he's adorable...I mean, those eyes! *s* And he's got a baby face, it's too cute, and he's actually cut! He can dance, he can sing, I wish he were mine. *giggles*

  2. Paulo Montalban - Now, anyone who saw him in Brandy's Cinderella oughtta know who I'm talking about. He was totally my definition of Prince Charming. *s* Just like Usher, he can sing, he's cut, and I think he's actually Flip! But don't take my word for it, I'm not totally sure.

  3. Jordan Knight - I loved him back when he was a New Kid and I fell in love with him all over again when he put out his own CD. I think he's fabulous...the boy can dress!

  4. Vin Diesel - Whoo, I so fell in love with this man when I saw him in Fast and the Furious. And he's even sexier in Pitch Black, which I looked into afterwards. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous...can't wait for more of his movies to come out. Who could resist that voice, huh?

  5. Rances Mendoza - Ah, whatta beautiful boy! I've only seen a coupla pics of him... but trust me, he's gorgeous! As far as I know...he's a model for Versace (although I'm not sure how dat quite works out now dat Versace has moved on from this life) and Fila Sport. Gotta love him!

  6. Mike Vitar - Just like Rances Mendoza...this guy's a Cuban cutie! Wow, Mike's to die for. He's not really known...so I'm not surprised if u don't know who I'm talking about. He plays "Benny" on The Sandlot, and he was Luis Mendoza on D2 and D3. He's cute.

  7. Vanessa Mancil - She played Brenda on General Hospital. She's super pretty.

  8. Antonio Sabato Jr. - Woohoo! He's absolutely friggin' gorgeous! U gotta know what I'm talking about. I mean, if he weren't sexy then he wouldn't have been chosen as a cK underwear model. I mean, come on now!

  9. Mother Teresa - Bet u all weren't expecting to find her in here! The reason why I think she was beautiful was her selflessness, for sure. She was a beautiful example of generosity and compassion that we could all look up to. I believe someone told me that when Mother Teresa died the only material belongings she had left were a pail for water and her clothes. These days, we are pretty much spoiled...some more than others, but in comparison to many others around the world we're such overindulgent people. The fact tht Mother Teresa denied herself all these luxuries and indulgences to devote herself to helping all those less fortunate truly fills me with awe. She was one amazing woman. I wish I could be like her in some way...but I'm sorry to admit that I can't be so giving. I love the cushy life, and I'm too selfish to give it up. *sigh* There I've said it. I'm such a bad person!

  10. Princess Diana - This is another woman that I totally admire. Unlike Mother Teresa, Princess Diana had everything anyone could dream of when it comes to material possessions, yet she gave selflessly to help those less fortunate. She was amazing. We should all look to her as an example on how we can help out in this world...even if it's just a lil bit.

  11. Jennifer Aniston - She's too kewl. What can I say? I know, this is really shallow of me but I loved that "Rachel" 'do that she started on Friends...and for a while I had that hairstyle as well. *embarassed* But to tell the truth...it was one of the few times that I was truly happy with my hair. I'd do it all over again, even if it is outdated now. It still flatters me. And who can actually say that she's a bad actress? Noone! She's too kewl.

  12. Madonna - Ok, the reason I think she's beautiful is 'cuz she doesn't apologize for being who she is. No matter how many people criticize her she still stands tall and she never compromises herself to please others. But yet, despite her defiance to fit the norm...she's still way responsible, I think she's doing a great job of raising her baby girl, Lourdes. Confidence and responsibility are key things I see in Madonna that make me admire her truly.

  13. Apolo Anton Ohno - To be honest, I never got to see him race (He's an American speed skater, Salt Lake City 2002) and I just saw him on the closing ceremonies. Oh my god, so gorgeous!

  14. Mark McGrath (Sugar Ray) - Oh my god, I love this guy! His face is just too adorable...and that body! Mmmm. He's got a lot going on for him.

  15. LL Cool J - All u serious rap fans are probably gonna gimme a lecture about this one. But seriously, the man's hot! He's cut, his voice is sexy, he's a good father (which is really admirable!) as well as a loving husband. And, yes, I do like his music...so nyah! *sticks her tongue out*

  16. Will Smith - Now u're all probably rolling your eyes at me now. "Geez, she really doesn't know what constitutes good music!" *giggles* But, pretty much, he's beautiful for all the same reasons as LL...cut, good father, faithful man, he's really lovable personality-wise, and he's smart, too! He was accepted to MIT before he decided to become the Fresh Prince. Who couldn't respect that?

  17. Toni Braxton - Everyone knows that I think Toni is a true diva. I love her voice! None of that high pitched squealing Mariah Carey passes off as singing. I definitely think she's pretty as well. But she does tend to flaunt it too much once in a while. If u've seen her cover of Vibe magazine, or even some of her outfits at award ceremonies, u know what I'm talking about.

  18. Tyson Beckford - Tscha...this man's to die for! He's beautiful. Don't know much about his personality, though.

  19. Ethan Hawke - Ahhh...I admittedly fall for the solemn poet type look. I think he's amazing, not in a drop dead sexy type of way...but just the way he gets u to feel for him, just by being himself.

  20. Catherine Zeta Jones - I thought she was absolutely radiant in Zorro...and I know a lotta u guys will comment on how she was in Entrapment. I think she is amazing when it comes to appearance.

  21. AJ McLean - A Backstreet Boy...my FAVE Backstreet Boy. He just looks so rough *giggles* it's adorable.

  22. Enrique Iglesias - Sometimes he's alright and sometimes he's super hot. Never ugly at least.

  23. Johnny Depp - He makes fabulous movies...most of my faves have him in it. Benny and Joon...Don Juan de Marco...What's Eating Gilbert Grape?..I think he's a faboo actor.

  24. Mark Dacascos - This guy is gorgeous! I've seen him in Only The Strong, Double Dragon (I know it's a kids movie), and he was also in American Samurai. He also had a part in The Island of Dr. Moreau...but I haven't seen that one yet.

  25. Tyra Banks - Now I know all u guys oughtta agree with me on this one! She's soooo pretty. And it's not like an exquisite kinda pretty, u know? I mean, she actually looks friendly and approachable.

  26. Sisqo - For all those who don't know...he was the blonde in the RnB group Dru Hill and now a successful solo artist...he looks mighty good! Especially for his age, I know he's fairly close to the same age as Usher. Very comparable, those two.

  27. Donald Faison - U know...the guy who played "Murray" on Clueless? Ain't he a cutie? His dimples are soooooo adorable, and his smile is just too cute.

  28. Halle Berry - She's really pretty. (Although, in my opinion, a bit too skinny.)

  29. Neve Campbell - I think she shows how to be really beautiful from the inside. I recall one interview she had where she openly admitted that she was never given much attention in high school...she never got a chance to date 'cuz noone asked her out and essentially she was always alone. What I really admire in her is the fact that she never let it faze her. She found a passion and absorbed herself in it...dancing. I don't consider myself a spectacular dancer but I can relate to how Neve found her escape through dancing. It literally takes u away from everything threatening or bothering u...so long as u feel it.

  30. Aaliyah - 'k, the reason why I think Aaliyah is beautiful is basically for her style...I really like the way she carries herself, her image and all. But I don't look favorably upon her former relationship with R.Kelly. Maybe they were truly in love and in that case age shouldn't matter, but there are some ethics involved with something like that. It's a shame she died at such a precious age, though.

  31. JC Chasez - My fave boy from NSync...but rather than the ruff and tumble style of AJ from BSB...JC is more polished, sophisticated. I guess I go for all types of guys *s*

  32. Wanya Morris - One of the members of my fave group, Boyz II Men. I love his vocal stylings and he just seems like such a sweetie. Although, just like Aaliyah, I can't say much positive about his past relationship with Brandy.

  33. Nathan Morris - Another one from Boyz II Men...I just think Nathan's kewl, too.

  34. Damon Wayans - This guy's too cute and plus he always makes me laugh...and isn't that important? *s*

  35. Jonathan Brandis - Just had to put him in here....a very old teeny bopper crush. *giggles*

  36. Mark Wahlberg - Really cut body...that's all I hafta say.

  37. Winona Ryder - She's pretty...especially in Reality Bites.

  38. Johnny Whitworth - Oh my...have u people ever seen Empire Records? He did such a good job playin' AJ...I felt his pain. *s* He's unbelievably hot in an adorable sorta way.

  39. Russell Wong - The boy was soooo hot in Romeo Must Die. Oh my god.

  40. Puff Daddy - He's just too kewl...and he's even got business smarts. And he is such a good father to lil Justin.

  41. Jon B. - I think he looks really kewl...not like some kinda god or somethin...he just looks like someone I'd like to know.

  42. Eminem - I just think he's hilarious...and a sense of humor is sooooo important.

  43. Rory Cochrane - Another guy from Empire Records...he wasn't the best-lookin' guy in the whole movie. Actually, I don't think he looks that great at all. Maybe it was just his character in the film that I love so much. "Lucas" was so kewl!

  44. Eddie Furlong - Ok, this is another one of those teenage fanclub type crushes that I had to admit to.

  45. Renee Zellweger - Is that how u spell her name? *giggles* Yeah, yeah...she's from Empire Records, too. But she did an amazing job in Jerry Maguire and and Bridget Jones' Diary. And she just looks so pretty.

  46. Noreaga - That rapper guy. *shrugs* I dunno...I've never really heard his stuff. I just saw him in one of my issues of Vibe and I was like "Wow!"

  47. Jon Bon Jovi - Now u're all probably thinking I'm weird 'cuz he's so old by now. But I think he's very good looking...I still have the T-shirt with him on it that I bought at the concert in 9th grade.

  48. Pierce Brosnan - Another fairly old person who I think is very very handsome...gotta love him as James Bond.

  49. Vivica Fox - She's too kewl. I think she looks sooo sophisticated and classy...and I think that's what everyone should strive for.

  50. ALL OF YOU - U all gotta know that each of u is beautiful in some way or another. And no, it does not make u conceited or vain to feel that way 'bout yourself. Find something u simply love about yourself and work it. It'll make u feel fabulous and people will think u're great, too!

Da beginnin'
