Sophie Marceau
Beautiful French actress Sophie Marceau is often top of these lists, even though she herself didn’t seem to think of herself as attractive, saying “I’ve never really been beautiful. I’m photogenic…” Either way, she was the focus of public attention since appearing on screens as a teenager with the 1980 film La Boum, and then starred in numerous European films over the next decade and a half. Soon she also joined Hollywood to star in Braveheart opposite Mel Gibson, and the James Bond film The World is not Enough.
Isabella Rossellini
It is pretty cool that Isabella Rossellini is actually the daughter of another beautiful woman on our list! Daughter of Ingrid Bergman and filmmaker Roberto Rossellini, Isabella started out as a model despite starting her career later than the average model and became the spokesmodel of Lancôme, a position she held for an impressive 14 years. After becoming a successful model she went into acting, doing both TV and film work, with one of her biggest roles in the David Lynch film, Blue Velvet. Rossellini is another example of a beautiful woman who is so much more than just outer beauty; she is a passionate activist with an interest in environmental conservation.
