Its publisher, iTopTopics Staff, said the entries were not in any particular order and cited celebrity visibility and appearances on other beauty lists as part of its rationale. The available article text confirms 18 profile headings, not the full 20-name roster.
What the 2016 list was—and was not
iTopTopics Staff presented its choices as a “top 20” of female celebrities for 2016, while explicitly saying the names were “not in any particular ranking order.” The framing matters: this was an editorial list, not a contest with a declared winner or a ranked countdown. Read the publisher’s article.
The publisher said it considered names that appeared frequently on other beauty lists and discussed fame or public visibility alongside appearance. It did not disclose a poll, participant sample, scoring formula, judging panel, or other reproducible method. That leaves the list as an expression of the publisher’s taste and criteria, not evidence of an objective standard of beauty.

The original title says 20, but the available text does not establish the two remaining names or confirm that these 18 headings are the complete roster. They should not be inferred or supplied by guesswork. The retrieved profile-heading record documents the names that are verifiable.

- Treat “most beautiful” as an editorial judgment. The article provides no method for measuring beauty in a universal or objective way.
- Do not read the sequence as a ranking. The publisher says there is no particular order.
- Take visibility into account. The publisher’s stated rationale includes fame and recurrence on other lists, so the selection is not presented as an assessment of appearance alone.
- Keep the date in view. This is a 2016 list, not a current assessment or a claim about who is most celebrated today.
Beauty lists can be useful as snapshots of a publisher’s choices and celebrity culture at a particular time. They cannot establish a universal standard, and the 2016 article’s incomplete verifiable roster makes it especially important not to present the headline’s “20” as a fully confirmed list of names.
