Paper mag knows a thing or two about beauty.

The Puerto Rican catwalk queen earns her spot on the publication’s "Beautiful People 2011" list for all the right reasons.  As global spokeswoman for Estee Lauder and the face of high-fashion brands Gucci and Stella McCartney, the model proves she’s more than just a pretty face. "In Puerto Rico, people are constantly friendly, saying hello, good evening, bless you,” she says to the publication. "It's just my nature. I'm always trying to make people smile or laugh."
