22. Lupita Nyong’o
No one will ever forget the heartbreaking but inspiring role that Lupita Nyong’o played in 12 Years a Slave. There was no doubt in anyone’s mind that the young and fresh-faced actress had a bright future ahead of her. Surprisingly, she went to star in more action and science fiction roles than dramatic ones, such as Marvel’s Black Panther, Star Wars, and the last Avengers film. People Magazine called her the most beautiful woman ever. When she is not acting, Lupita loves to dedicate her time to preserving history and furthering women’s rights.

21. Rihanna
The good girl gone bad dreamed of American fame from her Barbados home, and her wishes were clearly granted, and more. She would, in a few years, go on to become one of the world’s most famous and successful artists. She started off with a sweet and sugary look and sound before revolutionizing herself as a force no to be messed with! Rihanna’s intense, no-nonsense attitude and presence make her a respectable member of the music industry’s elite. She is also a proud fashion designer and cosmetics producer.
