    BEIJING, April 15 --  Angelina Jolie has been voted the most beautiful woman in the world.

    The 'Changeling' star won 58 per cent of the votes in an online poll conducted by Vanity Fair magazine.

    Supermodel Gisele Bundchen - who wed American football star Tom Brady in February - came a distant second with only nine per cent.

    Four per cent of respondents chose 'Gothika' star Halle Berry, handing her third place.

    The survey asked women to choose the most attractive lady from a list of 19 famous women, including singer Beyonce Knowles, actress Gwyneth Paltrow, model Bar Refaeli, Queen Rania of Jordan and Carla Bruni - the wife of French President Nicolas Sarkozy.

    On its' website, Vanity Fair said: "Of the billions of women on this planet, only 19, we believe, could start wars.

    "These modern-day Helens of Troy come from both hemispheres and include legends and ingenues, a queen, a First Lady and at least two bedmates of Leonardo DiCaprio."

    DiCaprio previously dated Gisele and is currently in a relationship with Israeli supermodel Bar.

    It's not the first time Angelina - who raises six children with her long-term partner Brad Pitt - has won a title of this kind.

    Last month, she topped a list of the world's most beautiful people compiled by Australian magazine Who.

    Kate Winslet came second in the antipodean survey.
