hey Mark Huxley… just bcz an indian woman is said to be ‘the most beautiful woman” by even Oprah, does not give you the right to call her scary. Are you calling indian women scary looking? is it because their eyes are prettier than ur women? Nicole cant even be compared to Anjelina (yes shes gorgeous) and Ashwariya. How is Ash’s look ‘common’? i dont see anybody looking like that everyday. As far as i’m concerned, your in need of a reality check
Ash still is the most stunning woman I have seen, even in real like at sort distance. Even with minimal make up she was eye catching and ehteral. Doll like, but smiling and at ease.
Aishwariya rai is preety but not wholly stunning. I have seen her interview and is preety scary looking. Her eyes are only complimented by makeup. But Angelina Jolie is beautiful with or without make-up. Ash is preety but Angelina is beutiful.Thats the difference.
Ash is photogenic. I have seen her in reality. She wears alot of makeup. Her eyes are not as beutiful as they look on screen and she definetly wears alot of makeup
I believe that there are women out there who have been hiding in homes or have been restricted from going out. Especially muslim women. If you look at women who wear the veil on thier face you will see such beutiful eyes,no way near aswarya rais. We cannot say she is the most beutiful as there are many conservative families who hide their beutiful daughters away from society and the world.Ashwariya got fame coz she also knew the right people and her family allowed her to indulge in such to get fame. But trust me i travel and have been to conservative parts of asia and have seen women beyond aishwariya. no joke.ash is nothing! Imran
Ash is stunning without makeup. She has tranlucent skin and features which stand out. The lady is definitely on the right side of God who has given her talent beauty and also good value systems. Without this value system she would have been like any othe beautiful charecterless women on the screen.
Beauty can fade but talent will remain. the reports onAsh as warrior are indeed exciting. The last Legion features this lass as a fighter and action queen and few could imagine this delicate woman doing all this. The fight director was astonished at the ease with which Ash adapted to the new role.at present Ash is still stunning at 32.
Ash is for east… princess diana is for the west. Can anyone match these 2 women in terms of beauty… with any one i mean any one in current celebrity world even though princess Diana is no more
Well all I can say is that Aishwarya Rai is not all beuatiful, but has a social and charitable side which manifests in using her NGO to finance women and eye donation causes etc. Many see her as a icon and interantional personality.
ash may b a good human being, doing things for ppl. but 2 call her as the worlds’ most beautiful women, wud b completely incorrect… but she can b called as d Women Wid D Best Plastic Smile…
luv u
i love u aysh
i’ve just want to meet ya in my life
she is not the most beautifiul women in the world (sorry)
Like the site. Anyways came across it while trying to upload my photos to the net. Still don’t know which is the best way to do it… help me.
(*~*Kat*~*)
hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
aish i love u
Make up or no make I honestly think Ash is the pinnacle of beautiful. one needs to have the structure of face to even be enhanced where make up goes. I’ve seen beautiful women but not as vivacious as Ash. infact any insane woman if had the choice would want to look like her.
what i meant to say was sane woman :)heh heh heh
I dont think she’s the most beautiful, Yeah she’s pretty but not the prettiest!
Most of these women are beautiful cuz of cosmotic or surgrey. If they are ugly when the makeup is gone then so am I….
i have seen aish in canada, the woman wear white makeup , painted white, she has brown skin and looks very indian with round eyes and her eye colour changes in every film. Anywayz, she is not the most beautiful neither is Anjelina jolie,
Indians fancy themselves as white rather than brown, look at aishwarya earlier films , her skin is indian skin and her english is with indian accent, once i heard her in british accent at some interview, and i knew she was faking it.
As for the most beautiful, there is none, ppl will differ, and every celeb is fake , everyone of them.
she is pretty. noone is denying dat. but most beautiful? i dont think so…. by the way, are those contacts? 2me her eye colour always changes………
She’s beautiful.
She is really a beautiful girl and much beautiful than angelina jolie. i like ash very much.
I think ash is beautiful. It is so nice to see an East Indian Girl in the Western World being recognized for both her beauty and brains.
hi
how r u
damn, i have seen that woman. She is hypnotizing. She looks indian, just not the stereotype indian. I think she’s bette than angelina/ Have u seen angelina in those days of bad hair? Rai doesnt got bad hair days..
Indian skin? What are you talking about? There are two types of indians, the light skinned and brown skinned. Ash is light skiined and has blue-green eyes. I have seen her at Cannes (in 2005) , and she was the most beautiful woman on earth, even the lady who was interviewing her said she would put a garbage bag on herself.
Dont forget, makeup doesnt go on piggs!
I feel Aishwarys rai is the most beautiful women in the world. God has created her with full precision and precaution.
she’s isnt that beautiful coz 1st of all she has only preety eyes but i dont like her cheeck bones!!!!
Yes ash you are one of the most beautiful women in the world. the ten most beautiful women in the world are Ash,Monica bellucci,Angelina jolie Thalia sodi, Beyonce, Tyra, keira knigtly,Elizabeth taylor, Elearnor varela, and Diane kruger.
Ash is definitely on the top of my list for the most beautiful female in the world. Different strokes.
