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

Barbara Eden

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.

Jane Fonda

A true powerhouse whenever Oscar season came around, Jane Fonda is still making movies even while in her 80s. The daughter of the legendary Henry Fonda is part of one of the most prolific families in all of Hollywood. Nevertheless, she has still managed to stand out from her relatives for her huge charisma, beautiful looks, and her long filmography. With success in film, TV and even on Broadway, it seems like there's nothing that Jane Fonda can not do.

Julia Roberts

What else can be said about Julia Roberts? One of the greatest actresses of the last 30 years, the now 52-year-old has been a leading lady in Hollywood since her breakthrough role alongside Richard Gere in Pretty Woman. Since then, Roberts has starred in a number of commercial and critical successes such as Erin Brockovich, Runaway Bride, Notting Hill, My Best Freind's Wedding, and Ocean's Eleven, to name a few! One of Roberts' most recent roles was the 2017 hit Wonder.

Brigitte Bardot

A dancer from a young age, Brigitte Bardot moved on to acting in the '50s. She starred in the controversial Robert Vadim film, And God Created Women, which launched her to international fame in 1956. One American critic called her, "undeniably a creation of superlative craftsmanship." Brigitte Bardot's entrance onto the world scene during the conservative decade was so palpable that Simone de Beauvoir wrote a feminist essay titled Brigitte Bardot and The Lolita Syndrome. Later in life, she became an animal rights activist and, most controversially, was fined five times for inciting racial hatred.
