Most beautiful of them all?

Actor Gwyneth Paltrow was recently crowned 2013’s Most Beautiful Woman in the World, by a magazine. Mother of two, the A-list Hollywood actor was officially honored for her beauty by the magazine in their annual list. The actor is married to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, and has two children, Apple, 8, and Moses, 7. Recently, she has started focusing on healthy diet and lifestyle and has even authored two cook books.

However, since beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, we asked Femina readers who according to them is the most beautiful woman. Here’s what they had to say.   
Steffi Graf
For me, Steffi Graf is the most beautiful woman alive. She’s sexy in a sporty way and has an athletic body. She can look sporty and athletic, or graceful and elegant, when she chooses to. Her smile is the best thing about her—it lights up her face.
Nidhi Manek, 30, homemaker

Kate Winslet
Since the time I watched Titanic, I have been a fan of Kate Winslet. She is undoubtedly the most beautiful woman in the world. Unlike these anorexic models and stick-tin Hollywood actors, she looks healthy and her skin is radiant. And she can act too.
Anuja Menon, 21, student

Rachel Weisz
The star of The Mummy, Rachel Weisz gets my vote for the world’s most beautiful woman. And her beauty is only surpassed by her acting skills. She has acted in some amazing films. Besides, every woman wants to be her—she’s married to Daniel Craig, after all!
Dimple Shah, 32, homemaker

Monica Bellucci
If I could describe Monica Bellucci in just one word, that word would be breath-taking. She is definitely beautiful, and has aged gracefully. She is curvy and vivacious. She is glamorous and at 48, she oozes sex appeal.
Manasi Shah, 27, pharmacist

Aishwarya Rai
She exudes natural beauty. In 1994, by winning the Miss World crown she gave hope to so many young Indian girls—I was in school then, and I clearly remember she made me aspire to be a beauty queen. She photographs so well, and has the prettiest eyes I have ever seen. And now, I have newfound respect for her because she didn’t let the critics who went on about her post-pregnancy weight gain, get to her. She has taken a year and half to get back to her old self, and she looks gorgeous now.

Jennifer Lawrence's Makeup-Free Look Was a Big Mistake

ll right. I'm gonna be brutally honest, here. After seeing Jennifer Lawrence's barely there makeup at the premiere of The Great Gatsby -- I really think choosing to go so light on the eyeliner and eye shadow this time around was a bad idea. Yes, I know she's young and fresh-faced and has a natural vibe going on and doesn't need a whole lot of makeup to look good. But in this case, especially given the formality of the event, she probably should've gone a bit heavier on the cosmetics. And I'll tell you why. Jen is gorgeous, but she also has a baby-faced appearance, so when she doesn't play up her eyes, she looks much younger than she actually is. Granted, for 30- and 40-somethings, this is generally a good thing. But in her case, at 22, she actually looks more like 15 when she chooses to go the minimal makeup (or makeup-free) route. She looks so much less sophisticated -- like she really didn't put any sort of effort in at all. Here's a photo of the...

Letter from Sachin Tendulkar to all his fans throughout the World:

Dear fans, I am saddened as I write this letter. I know I have disappointed you with the series loss against England and my performance isn’t what you have always expected of me. I have always given my best for the team, but the results are not in my favour this time around. People are clamouring for my retirement and I can’t agree more with them. I have not been living up to the standards that I have set for myself through the years and I am indeed answerable to the fans. I apologize to you for my dismal performances, and for failing you time and again. It is a general misconception among people that I have grown complacent and taking things for granted. But I can assure you that I am the same person who made his debut at the age of 16 as an excited teenager. I have been following my routine right from the day I made my debut till today. Nothing has changed, neither the preparation nor the mind-set. Maybe age is finally catching up to me, something I have been trying to ...
