Thirty-something Kylie sends heads spinning around

KYLIE Minogue has been named the world's sexiest thirty-something. The eternally youthful 36-year-old beat Kate Beckinsale and Catherine Zeta Jones to the title.

Kate Moss, Liz Hurley and Davina McCall also made the list.

Good Housekeeping magazine set out to find the sexiest female celebrities across the ages.

Supermodel Elle Macpherson topped the list for women in their forties, followed by Yasmin Le Bon.

Absolutely Fabulous and former Avengers star Joanna Lumley was named sexiest fifty-something ahead of Sharon Osbourne and Helen Mirren.

In the sixties category, French screen siren Catherine Deneuve came out on top.

And the sexiest women in her seventies is actress Honor Blackman, still gorgeous at 77 and recently signed up as a model for Marks & Spencer.

The women were chosen by an expert panel which included photographer Lord Patrick Lichfield.

Their results are featured in the March issue of Good Housekeeping, which hits the shelves tomorrow.
