The Unmatched Woman of the World: A Director, Humanitarian, and Mother-of-Six who Surpassed Malala Yousafzai, Hillary Clinton, and the Queen in a Global Poll

A survey conducted on 25,000 individuals has shown that Angelina Jolie has become the most respected woman worldwide, surpassing some notable figures such as Malala Yousafzai, Hillary Clinton, and even the Queen. The poll revealed that Jolie, who is an actress, director, mother of six, and UN special envoy, was considered the most deserving of admiration internationally. However, the study also showed that citizens of the UK still favored Queen Elizabeth II, narrowly pushing Judi Dench into second place in terms of national respect.

As per the latest reports, Angelina Jolie has been named as the most celebrated woman across the globe at the 20th Annual Critics Choice Awards.

In a recent survey by YouGov, which included 25,000 participants from 23 countries, Angelina Jolie was found to be more popular than Queen Elizabeth II.

According to a recent poll conducted across 23 countries, Angelina Jolie has been named the most admired woman globally, followed by Malala Yousafzai, who won the Nobel Peace Prize this year. Hillary Clinton secured the third position. The poll results varied across countries. Malala, the youngest Nobel laureate, is known for advocating education and women’s rights in Swat Valley, Pakistan. The top ten most admired women also include Michelle Obama, Celine Dion, Oprah Winfrey, and Julia Roberts. The Queen was also among the women widely admired across the world.

In spite of being ranked as the fourth most powerful person in the world, British voters have voted Queen Elizabeth II as the most admired figure. This list indicates that celebrities are often held in a higher regard than politicians. Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor and Aung San Suu Kyi, the Burmese leader, are ranked ninth and tenth respectively. Taylor Swift and Beyonce Knowles come close to Merkel, occupying the 11th and 12th positions. Sonia Gandhi from India is placed at the 13th spot, while Jennifer Lawrence follows closely behind. Although Kate Middleton secures the 15th position globally, she is voted as the sixth most admired person in the UK, ahead of Aung San Suu Kyi but behind Helen Mirren, who takes the fourth spot.

Michelle Obama, the ex-First Lady and her spouse, ex-President Barack Obama, have received acknowledgement as one of the most respected women and men, individually.

A recent survey revealed the most respected women worldwide, with Oprah Winfrey and Angela Merkel taking top spots. In the UK, Nicola Sturgeon, the SNP leader and First Minister of Scotland, was ranked ninth among voters. Julia Roberts and Ellen DeGeneres also made the list, securing the eighth and tenth positions, respectively. When it comes to the most respected men, Bill Gates topped the global rankings, while Britons favored Stephen Hawking. Prince William was more popular than his brother Harry, taking the fifth spot after Richard Branson, with Harry ranking at number eight. David Beckham and Nigel Farage rounded out the list as the tenth and eleventh most respected men in the survey.
