How are the lists curated?
The lists are created annually by the Independent Critics, organised by TC Candler, a film critic website.
Independent Critics stated that the lists are not based on popularity nor is it specific to any country.
The Independent Critics is made of about 20 people living in various parts of the world who search and listen to numerous suggestions submitted by the public over the years and put together "a list representative of the modern ideal of worldwide beauty".
However, it does not expect everyone to agree with its choices, calling the list "subjective".
"Rather, the list attempts to inform and broaden public opinion instead of reflecting it. You will find superstars and new stars, global sensations and relative unknowns," it said.
Here are the full lists on TC Candler's YouTube channel.
