      I was more of a Sophia Loren school of hotness myself, but no doubt, Raquel Welch was up there.

      Audrey Hepburn was the most adorably charming and cutest.

      RIP

          Interesting background for those who didn’t know about Raquel Welch…

          Raquel Welch was born as Jo Raquel Tejada on September 5, 1940, in Chicago, Illinois. She is the first child of Armando Carlos Tejada Urquizo and Josephine Sarah Hall. Her father, Armando Tejada, was an aeronautical engineer from La Paz, Bolivia, son of Agustin Tejada and Raquel Urquizo. In 2010 while being interviewed on the talk show Tavis Smiley, Welch stated, "My father came from a country called Bolivia. Her cousin, Bolivian politician Lidia Gueiler Tejada, became the first female President of Bolivia and the second female non-royal head of state in the Americas. Welch was named after her paternal grandmother. Her mother, Josephine Hall, was the daughter of architect Emery Stanford Hall and his wife Clara Louise Adams; she was of English ancestry. Welch has a younger brother, James "Jim" Tejada, and had a younger sister, Gayle Tejada.

                    Many of us had that poster as well of course. So iconic. The only other one that was just as iconic was Farrah Fawcett’s.

                      She also did those USO shows in Vietnam with Bob Hope, needless to say she was more popular than Bob. RIP Raquel you were definitely one beautiful woman.

                            Definitely one of screen's most beautiful people, but she had loads of charm and charisma to back those looks up. That's not always the case. RIP.

                              There was the time she was on David Letterman and it was one of the most amusing appearance 's she did. Dave was insane that night.
