Audrey Hepburn has been named the most beautiful woman of the twentieth century, beating out contemporary beauties Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johannson.

The gorgeous lass defeated Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly to the top place in the poll for shopping channel QVC. She is most known for her famous glam stance in a black Givenchy dress, pearls, and gloves in the 1961 film Breakfast At Tiffany’s.

The actress, who died in 1993 and was also a UNICEF ambassador, beat Cole, the nation’s 21st-century crush, who came second.

According to Sky News, although Cheryl Cole came in second, Marilyn Monroe, the star of Some Like It Hot, finished in third.

A-lister Angelina Jolie came in fourth place, while Grace Kelly took fifth place.
