Actress-director Angelina Jolie has been named the most admired woman in the world, leaving behind Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, Hillary Clinton, Queen Elizabeth II and India’s Congress chief Sonia Gandhi.
According to a new poll of 25,000 people, the mother-of-six and United Nations special envoy was most worthy of respect internationally, reports dailymail.co.uk.
However, the internet-based market research firm YouGov study found that Britons still voted Queen Elizabeth II into the top spot nationally, pushing actress Judi Dench into second place. Jolie, 39, last directed the critically acclaimed film “Unbroken”, which was about the Second World War, and has been travelling around the world visiting war zones since 2001.
