Brigitte Bardot

During the 50’s and 60’s, people almost worshipped the beautiful Brigitte Bardot because of her jaw dropping beauty and sex appeal. In 1952, she appeared in her first film, Girls in Bikinis, in a bikini that quickly became popular as a sex goddess. She was famous for portraying sexy and hedonistic characters, making her the top sex symbol of her generation. Her role in And God Created Woman added to her international fame.

The quote “every man wanted her and every women wanted to be her,” perfectly applied to Bridgitte Bardot. However, she decided to retire early in her career in 1973. Since then, she devoted a lot of her investment money to support her animal rights advocacy and continues to promote it until today. She founded the Brigitte Bardot Foundation, which is probably bigger than any film she could have made.
