The Best Bond Girls, Ranked
James Bond, Mr. 007 himself, is possibly one of the greatest agents out there. He’s suave, charming, strong, daring, brave, and…well, we’d be here all day if we listed all the qualities we can admire him for. Still, he isn’t alone in the movies! Throughout the series, there are women that stay at his side and help save the world. Granted, some of them get captured and cause more problems than they do help, but it’s all part of the adventure.
What we’re getting at is that these women are just as memorable as Bond himself. Any fan of the series remembers Honey Ryder walking out of the ocean and immediately threatening Bond. That’s one of the most memorable scenes of any movie ever!
While there are a lot of Bond girls, only some of them are fantastic enough to land themselves on this list. From Bond’s original love to his newest partner, these are the 20 best Bond girls throughout the years, ranked.

- In the summer of 2007, Joh Hamm became a household name when Mad Men premiered to critical acclaim and strong ratings. Just over a year and a half later, Ellie Kemper stole America's hearts (and Dwight's and Andy's) when she became the new receptionist on The Office. Before they were famous, Hamm was Kemper's high school drama teacher!
- In February 2020, Jeff Bezos bought the most expensive property in California: a $165 million mansion. It was designed for Jack Warner (the former president of Warner Bros. entertainment company). It took a decade to construct (spanning the 1930s and 40s). It comes complete with 9 acres of Beverly Hills land, a main house, a guest house, a tennis court, a golf course, and terraces.
- Jackie Kennedy is famous for redecorating and renovating the interior of the White House. Actually, on just her first day, she ordered $50,000 in changes for new rooms for the children and upgrades to the kitchen. She later hosted a tour of the White House for CBS News which was viewed by 56 million people and won her an Emmy Award.
- Paris Hilton not only lives in a mansion, she also built a doghouse mansion for her Chihuahua. It's 300 square feet and includes air conditioning and heating. It comes decked out with designer furniture, a chandelier, a pink paint job, second-floor balcony, and enclosed "yard." It's not enough for you to live in luxury. Your dog must, as well.
- Björk created a media sensation when she wore her iconic white swan dress to the 2001 Oscars. At the time, many derided it as hideous and a publicity stunt, but it has since gone down as one of the most memorable dresses of all time—even if it isn't exactly beloved. She says David Bowie was the inspiration behind the dress.
