Aishwarya Rai in her Miss World red gown: of crown and glory

Aishwarya Rai on stage - the crown and glory of Miss World.

Below, Rai, preparing and at fittings. 

Back when she had a sense of humour, someone asked her what her beauty secret was and she joked on camera, "Makeup!". 

You can find the clip online. But really, Ash just had the most chiseled features.
