WHO are the most beautiful women in Asia?
We asked 100 Singaporeans - 50 men and 50 women - to pick five Asian women whom they considered beautiful and sexy.
And no surprises who nabbed the top spot.
Almost two thirds of the the respondents put former Miss World and Bollywood starlet Aishwarya Rai in their list.
At a distant second, with less than half of the votes, was Chinese actress Gong Li, who will be seen in the upcoming Hollywood flick Miami Vice opposite Colin Farrell.
The rest of the top 10 list was made up of the usual suspects - actresses Zhang Ziyi and Shu Qi and Malaysian pop princess Siti Nurhaliza.
But some Singaporeans threw up lesser-known names, such as Polish-Javanese actress Tamara Bleszynski and American-Chinese actress-model China Chow.
Local babes were not left out, with some mentioning MTV VJ Denise Keller, actress Wong Li-lin and host Andrea De Cruz. Even The Link owner Tina Tan-Leo and Haach CEO Ponz Goo were picked.
And as for the Queens of Caldecott? Fann Wong beat Zoe Tay, with with nine votes to one.

1: AISHWARYA RAI
Number of votes: 60
No stranger to the beautiful women rankings, this ravishing beauty was Miss World in 1994 before becoming a Bollywood A-lister with movies like Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Devdas. The 32-year-old actress has also appeared in Hollywood productions like Bride And Prejudice and Mistress Of Spices.
'Aishwarya's name has somehow become synonymous with the word beautiful. Her features are also very striking because of her sharp nose and greenish eyes.'
- Nur Aqilah Tahir, 25, administrative officer

2: GONG LI
Number of votes: 43
After forging a career in critically-acclaimed Chinese movies like Farewell My Concubine and Red Sorghum, Gong Li, 40, is now inching her way into Hollywood conciousness.
She tantalised Western audiences in Memoirs Of A Geisha, and will romance Colin Farrell in Miami Vice, which opens here later this month.
There are other Asian actresses in Hollywood but the majority of them are of mixed-blood. So when you compare Gong Li to them, she definitely stands out because she is 100 per cent Asian.'

businessman

3: MAGGIE Q
Number of votes: 38
Maggie Denise Quigley, 27, started with an under-the-radar career in Hong Kong movies like Gen-Y Cops and Naked Weapon. Then this year, the Vietnamese and Irish-American actress nabbed a plum role in Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible III and has become next big Asian babe in Hollywood.
She may not be as busty or as tall as the Caucasian models and actresses but I think she is capable of turning heads in Hollywood.'

student

4: AYUMI HAMASAKI
Number of votes: 35
The Empress of J-Pop burst onto the music scene in 1998 and catapulted to No. 1 with her hit album Love-Destiny. The 27-year-old popster and former model is also hailed as a fashion icon, with teenaged Japanese girls emulating her sexy, spunky style.
