Canada celebrates the country's 50 Most Beautiful People, with Shania Twain topping the list 2009-05-06 Click here to see a clip of editor-in-chief Ciara Hunt talking about the latest issue on BT HELLO! Canada names pop-country singing sensation Shania Twain Canada's Most Beautiful Woman. "I don't think I'm ugly, I just think I'm overrated on the cutie factor," she says. But like her famous song, the 43-year-old stunner reveals feeling good is the key to keeping gorgeous: "I like to feel like a woman". The newly single mother-of-one carries her beauty from the inside out, the kind women warm to and men simply can't help admiring. "A happy heart comes first, then the happy face," explains the five-time Grammy winner. After a chance encounter with the songstress - who comes from humble beginnings in Timmins, Ontario - in France, SexyBack singer Justin Timberlake dubbed her "one hot little number". She credits a raw-food diet and daily meditation as two of her best-kept secrets, while most importantly maintaining a healthy attitude. Meanwhile, playing the role of hunky counter terrorist agent Jack Bauer on 24 has made Kiefer Sutherland a sex symbol. "I got into it for the girls," the 42-year-old admits when asked what first attracted him to acting in an exclusive interview with HELLO! Canada this week. But the former eligible bachelor thanks his new model-turned-journalist love Siobhan Bonnouvrier for his newfound happiness - and it shows. "I'm really happy at this point in my life and my relationship is a large part of it," exclaims the Emmy-winning star. Exuding the confidence only a new romance can bloom, it is no surprise the Toronto-raised actor's tough-guy charm and chiselled good looks have landed him on HELLO! Canada's 50 Most Beautiful Canadians list. Click through our gallery to see who else topped the list and be sure to pick up a copy of Issue 129 when it hits newsstands, starting Thursday, May 7.
