It would seem that hellomagazine.com's readers prefer women who are beautiful but deadly, as you voted high-kicking Michelle Yeoh the sexiest Bond Girl ever.
The actress easily beat competition from many of the series' most striking stars, including Honor Blackman, Denise Richards, Jane Seymour and Diana Rigg. Her more demure competitors simply couldn't stand up to the martial arts expert's lethal force as she received a whopping 41 per cent of the vote while runner-up Ursula Andress, who immortalised iconic babe Honey Ryder in Dr No got only 16 per cent. Third place Britt Ekland received only 14.5 per cent.
Malaysia-born Michelle was also more than a match for 007 himself when she appeared in Tomorrow Never Dies, playing the Chinese secret agent he teams up with.
Voters also showed a preference for deadly dames in the Best Bond Baddie category, where Xenia Onatopp from Golden Eye was deemed most venerable villain with one third of the votes. In the film actress Famke Janssen brought a whole new meaning to "drop-dead-gorgeous" as she did away with amorous gentlemen by crushing them between her thighs. Needless to say, James himself managed to escape her fatal foreplay.
Dutch-born Famke overcame some of 007's most memorable adversaries to take the top spot, including Dr No, Ernst Stavro Blofeld, third-place baddie Auric Goldfinger and henchman Oddjob. The sexy brunette also escaped the deadly grasp of Jaws, though he still had something to smile about as he finished a respectable second place with 23 per cent.
