Actress Zhou Xun and Zhang Ziyi trail in third and fourth place respectively.

Zhang Ziyi also made the world's top 50 most beautiful women in an American survey.

Some have jeered at Li for trumping so many other more conventional beauties, saying that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Li, who became a household name overnight last year, is well known for her boyish spiky hair and tomboy appearance. She has many more female fans than male.
