Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
Aishwarya Rai started modeling during college and took home the Miss World title in 1994. She later started to appear in Bollywood films. Variety writer Derek Elley described her performances as characterized by a “delicately sensual presence and physical grace.” She constantly deals with media attention, but she has been able to keep her private life private.

Brigitte Bardot
Brigitte Bardot had her beginnings as a dancer but she decided to venture into acting in the ‘50s. Her appearance in the controversial Robert Vadim film And God Create Women launched her to stardom back in 1956. One American critic described her as “undeniably a creation of superlative craftsmanship.” Her introduction to the world stage during a conservative time had been so palpable, Simone de Beauvoir was moved to write the feminist essay Brigitte Bardot and The Lolita Syndrome.
