Top 50 Hottest Jewish Women (20-11)
Join Shalom Life in celebrating the 50 most talented, intelligent, funny, and beautiful Jewish women in the world
By: Ashley Baylen
Happy Passover everyone!. In celebration of the holiday,
we have compiled a list of the 50 Hottest Female Jews (Some are Mom’s… but they
are all JILF’S) in the world today.
Narrowing it down to only 50 took a lot of thought and consideration, but I
think we finally nailed it. Over the next 5 days, Shalom Life will celebrate
the most talented, intelligent, funny, and beautiful Jewish women. Tune in next
week for our list of the 50 Hottest Jewish Men (Still JILFs).
Also in celebration of Passover, we asked 5 of our favorite Jewish comedians to
share a holiday memory. What did Myq Kaplan have to say?

#20- EMMANUELLE CHRIQUI

Hometown: Montreal, Canada
Known for: Entourage, You Don’t Mess With the Zohan, The Borgias
Why she’s a JILF: Emmanuelle was born to Moroccan Jewish immigrants in Montreal. She was raised in Toronto in a Sephardic Orthodox Jewish household. Shortly after finishing high school, Emmanuelle relocated to Vancouver to pursue acting. She landed roles in Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Once a Thief, and Psi Factor before getting her first Hollywood film part in Detroit Rock City. Her big break came in Adam Sandler’s You Don’t Mess With the Zohan when she played a Palestinian immigrant living in New York. She went on to be featured in several music videos and feature films, and was recently cast in both Showtime’s The Borgias and the animated series, Thundercats.

#19- NIKKI REED
Age: 23
Hometown: Los Angeles, California

Why she’s a JILF: Nikki was raised without religion, but considers herself Jewish. Her father is Jewish, while her mother is Cherokee and Italian, giving Nikki that unique exotic beauty. Nikki moved out at 14 years old, residing in various apartments throughout L.A. During this time, she co-wrote the indie hit ‘Thirteen’ co-starring Evan Rachel Wood. Nikki dropped out of high school, citing mothers sneaking into her school to confront and harass her about the film as the reason. She eventually graduated through homeschooling. After the success of Thirteen, Nikki landed several large roles including Lords of Dogtown, The O.C, and eventually The Twilight Series. Look out for Nikki in the upcoming Downers Grove and Pawn… and the final Twilight film, Breaking Dawn Part 2.
