PAM HARRINGTON, RIVERSIDE, CALIFORNIA: Hello, my name is Pam Harrington. I'm from Riverside, Connecticut. And my question is: What constitutes the choosing of the most beautiful people in "People" magazine?</s>LIZ SPORKIN, ASSISTANT MANAGING EDITOR, "PEOPLE": When we choose our 50 most beautiful people every year, we look for people who are beautiful, of course, but also people who are hot, who are of the moment. We begin in January, even though the issue doesn't come out until May. We begin by asking our staff, our correspondents all over the country and around the world. They all make suggestions. We narrow the list down. And we also build it up, as we pay attention to who is nominated for an Oscar, who wins a Grammy. And we update it on almost a daily basis.
