Is this the 'ultimate female celebrity'?
British shopping site feelunique.com recently polled their customers regarding "the most beautiful body parts of celebrities they admired and most wish they had themselves" and after more than 9,000 votes, this digital image is a compilation of the results. From the top down: Megan Fox's eyebrows, Kate Middleton's hair, Cheryl Cole's eyes, Kate Beckinsale's nose, cheekbones like Keira Knightley, lips like Angelina Jolie, the chin of Gwyneth Paltrow and Kelly Brook's chest. I wonder what the computer-generated photo would look like should the voting have taken place here in the US! While very pretty, the image is certainly robotic and video-game like. What do you think - is she the 'ultimate female celebrity'?
