14 Of The Most Beautiful Women Of All Time

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, making any list of the most beautiful people in history up for serious debate. Many of these women became successful thanks to their looks, so if we've piqued your curiosity, check out which women we have selected!

Barbara Eden is best known for starring in the popular '60s sitcom I Dream of Jeannie, but many don't know that originally the show's creators wanted a brunette. This was because they wanted a departure from Bewitched, also a fantasy sitcom with a blonde lead. Barbara Eden was so funny, beautiful, and fit the role so perfectly that the show's creators overlooked this minor detail. And it's good that they did! Barbara has been a TV star ever since.

Known for her seductive looks and distinctive voice, this American actress was named the 20th greatest female star of classic Hollywood cinema and later in life received an honorary Academy Award "in recognition of her central place in the Golden Age of motion pictures." Despite her outstanding acting career, she began as a model and appeared on the cover of Harper's Bazaar, and even magazines such as Vogue. Her beauty was recognized for her "cat-like grace, tawny blonde hair, and blue-green eyes".

Starring in arguably the most iconic movie of all time in The Wizard of Oz, it seems like Judy Garland was a victim of the glitz and glamor that comes with being a Hollywood star. Nominated for Academy Awards for her roles in A Star Is Born and Judgment at Nuremberg, Garland had the world at her feet before meeting her tragic end. With her daughter Liza Minnelli carrying on the torch and Renee Zellweger starring as her in the 2019 biopic, Judy Garland's legacy has definitely lived on.

Despite refusing to succumb to the pressures of Hollywood publicity, it seemed like fans and co-stars alike couldn't keep their eyes off Katharine Hepburn. With that said, she did have a well-publicized marriage to fellow actor Spencer Tracy, in which she also starred alongside him in nine movies. And that's just scratching the surface of her relationships. With a record four Academy Award nominations for Lead Acting Performance, it is clear that she was one of the greatest actresses of all time.
