Aug. 24, 2011 - PRLog -- Whilst being renowned for her glamour and beauty, the late Elizabeth Taylor has beaten off all other celebrities to clinch the title of ‘Most Photogenic Celebrity of All Time’; according to a new study by a leading photo book website.

In the new poll conducted by www.MyMemory.com, the Hollywood legend was handed the title of ‘most photogenic celebrity of all time’ ahead of the likes of Jennifer Aniston and David Beckham; who clinched second and third place respectively.

MyMemory.com polled 1,571 members of the British public aged 18 and over, asking them questions about which celebrities, over time, they believed were the most photogenic; given the site’s focus on photographic gifts and products. Respondents were shown pictures of possible celebrities to vote for, and were able to choose more than one celebrity.

According to the results, the top 10 ‘most photogenic celebrities of all time’ were as follows:

1) Elizabeth Taylor- 72%
2) Jennifer Aniston- 69%
3) David Beckham- 66%
4) Megan Fox- 61%
5) Audrey Hepburn- 58%
6) Marlon Brando- 53%
7) Angelina Jolie- 52%
8) Marilyn Monroe- 49%
9) Sophia Loren- 41%
10) James Dean- 38%

Narrowly missing out on the top ten were Hollywood A-lister Brad Pitt (37%) and Slumdog Millionaire star Freida Pinto (36%).

Rebecca Huggler, Co-Founder of MyMemory.com, commented on the results of the poll:

“Photographs are a huge part of our relationship with celebrities, and with this study we were interested to see which celebrities the British public believe look the best behind the lens. It was very interesting to see a member of Hollywood Royalty, Elizabeth Taylor, clinch the top spot as the most photogenic celebrity of all time; but I think this proves that she will forever be remembered for her timeless beauty.”

She continued:

“It’s always great to see some men amongst the most photogenic women in the top 10, particularly as it is usually women who are typically revered for their beauty. It will be interesting to see how this list changes over the years, as there are a lot of classic celebrities in there who have been famous or passed away many years ago; proving that photographs stay with us forever.”
