A striking 19-year-old model and actress received the title for the world’s most beautiful face of 2020 recently.
Yael Shelbia from Israel was bestowed with the mega honor and title by the content creator and writer for TC Candler. The latter is renowned for running the prestigious list for the 100 most beautiful faces since the year 1990.
Born and raised in Nahariya, Shelbia was previously a part of the list on several occasions.
She first made her debut in the year 2017, where she ranked 14th.
Soon, the stunner made her way to third place in the year 2018. In the following year, Shelbia scored second place in 2019. But it was 2020 where she finally topped the list for the ‘world’s most beautiful face.’
The exotic beauty came out on top, turning heads as she beat the Wonder Woman herself, Gal Gadot. She is another fellow Israeli who managed to secure the 21st spot on the list.
Meanwhile, the runner up position for second place went to Thai rapper Lisa, commonly referred to as Lalisa Manoban. In the same way, the Australian model Meika Woolard came in third.
Currently, Shelbia is continuing with her mandatory military service for her country’s air force. She thanked TC Candler for bestowing her with the prestigious honor via a social media post. And that’s where she wrote, “I appreciate it with all of my heart.”
Recently, the model and actress expressed her thoughts via an interview for a local news channel where she admitted how much this honor means to her. “I’ve never come first at anything… it’s very nice.”
Also, the striking star mentioned how the Air Force has allowed her to take part in meetings while continuing with her modeling projects in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile, the famous 100 most beautiful faces of the year list aren’t like other yearly beauty rankings. Moreover, it’s not a popularity contest, neither does it revolve around country-specific regulations. Every year, 40 different nations from around the globe are represented on fairgrounds.
Therefore, judges go through thousands of suggestions that are submitted by the general public, and the end result is a list worth raving for. For this reason, you’ll find both stars as well as relative unknowns, competing for the top spot.
