28. Alicia Vikander
Alicia Vikander was destined for Hollywood fame, perhaps obliviously, when she became something of a sensation in Swedish television. Before she was hot property in Hollywood, or even a Swedish television actress, Vikander was committed to being a ballerina as a youngster. It took several painful injuries to convince her that this was not her destined path, and she decided to give acting a try. She was Lara Croft in the latest Tomb Raider reboot.
27. Irina Shayk
Irina Shayk is something of a pioneer for her home country of Russia, being the first citizen to appear on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Irina Shayk is a monumentally established supermodel, having worked with Mango, Bottega Veneta, Burberry, Miu Miu, and Marc Jacobs. There is little that Shayk is afraid of, having famously taken to the runway when she was 6 months pregnant! She and Bradley Cooper are the proud parents of a beautiful little girl.
