“This year’s list is not only a reflection of a shift in the media, but also a shift in modern male thinking,” said James Bassil, Publisher. “We wanted to steer away from ‘hot’ lists and highlight women who have demonstrated a sheer influence in their industry. We were looking for women who are doing something new this year, something that demonstrates their versatility and raw talent.”

The revamped list – compiled with the help of one million reader votes, and input from various publications — was designed to celebrate “women whose achievements are shaping and defining their respective fields,” according to AskMen.

Here are some of the other famous faces to make the inaugural Outstanding list:

  • 12. Michelle Obama
  • 23. Rihanna
  • 26. Ariana Grande
  • 47. Angelina Jolie
  • 49. Kerry Washington
  • 74. Amy Schumer
  • 76. Chrissy Teigen
  • 88. Kristen Stewart
  • 96. Kendall Jenner
  • And rounding out the list… number 99… Jessica Alba.
