Cool to be brown
As a brunette I can't help but be pleased by the Harpers & Queen list of the world's 100 most beautiful women. The magazine asked 1000 'experts' from fashion, arts and the media to boost the egos of famous women everywhere. And what did they do? They gave brunettes the top five spots, demoting Kate Moss from higher echelons of favour.
While this is good news for raven-haired ladies everywhere, the 'experts' clearly haven't grasped the idea of beauty. Angelina Jolie the most beautiful woman in the world? Hot and soft in the head, yes, most ravishing woman to walk the planet? No. And while supermodel Christy Turlington and domestic goddess Nigella Lawson work lanky grace and buxom wares respectively, who the hell thinks geeky, toothy director Sofia Coppola should be number four, ahead of Moss, Natalie Portman, Emmanuelle Beart and Gisele? She's obviously cool but dating Quentin Tarantino does nothing to improve her looks.
And where is Monica Bellucci?

I was also rather surprised that Coppola was in the top 5. Catherine Zeta Jones or Monica Bellucci would have been better.
