Laverne Cox one of People’s most beautiful women

Sandra Bullock may have been given the cover but Laverne Cox is still getting plenty of attention for being included in People Magazine’s annual World’s Most Beautiful Woman issue.

The trans actress, who was showcased on the cover of Time Magazine last year, was also nominated for an Emmy for her breakout role on the Netflix comedy Orange is the New Black.

People writes of Cox: ‘The actress has left a big impression on Hollywood (and America) in a very short amount of time. Cox’s skillful performance as Sophia on Orange Is the New Black and her work advocating for transgender women make her one of our boldest beauties yet.’

Others who made the issue include Vanessa Hudgens, Ariana Grande, Shay Mitchell and Taraji P. Henson.
