#2 Barbara Bouchet

A German-American with a French name, Barbara Bouchet made an early mark as a Bond Girl (she actually played Miss Moneypenny, albeit in the dreadful Casino Royale). She later did one-off TV shows like the Man from U.N.C.L.E. and Star Trek, finally ending her career by heading back to Europe to make cheapo Italian horror movies and sex comedies. Like many European actresses, she was more than happy to get all nekkid.
