Honestly, who cares if Anna Kournikova never won a Grand Slam title in single play? She seems to be doing just fine these days, buoyed by her budding modeling career. So, while certain statistics may cast a shadow over her professional tennis career, there is no doubting her physical beauty. According to a new survey by Motorpoint, men in the U.K. voted Kournikova 'Car Wash Belle,' making her the number one person that men would like to see washing their cars. We wouldn't argue with these results. Number two on the list is Cristina Aguilera, followed in the three-spot by Scarlet Johansson -- a fine choice indeed.So, what about the guys? They weren't left out, as Johnny Depp got the official nod as 'Car Wash Hunk,' followed by George Clooney and Ewan McGregor. We've pasted both top ten lists after the break. Feel free to nominate your personal choices in the comments section, and remember to keep it clean... sorry, too easy.

PRESS RELEASE
ANNA KOURNIKOVA AND JOHNNY DEPP TOP CELEBRITY CAR WASH POLL
Anna Kournikova has been voted the celebrity that most people would like to see wash their car in a new survey published by Motorpoint, the UK's leading car supermarket.
The tennis ace was singled out as the 'Car Wash Belle' in a nationwide poll of female celebrities that men would most like to see on their driveway with a bucket and sponge cleaning their vehicle. She was followed closely by singer Cristina Aguilera (23%), who ironically released a single 'Car Wash' a few years ago, and actress Scarlet Johansson (16%).
In the same study, Johnny Depp, star of 'Pirates of the Caribbean' was named 'Car Wash Hunk' by female voters, taking 25% of the vote - piping fellow actors George Clooney (22%) and Ewan McGregor (12%) to the top spot. Welsh rugby star Gavin Henson was the least popular with 1%.
Commenting on the findings, John Hood, General Manager at Motorpoint Derby explains: "Washing your car is often thought of as just a routine part of vehicle maintenance. However, our study shows that drivers wouldn't pass on a helping hand from a celebrity. When it comes to my own car, I would have to go for our very own 'British Belle' Kelly Brook."

"So, what about the guys? They weren't left out, as Johnny Depp got the official nod as 'Car Wash Hunk,' followed by George Clooney and Ewan McGregor."
No accounting for taste. On the plus side, David Beckham,
Jenson Button, and Daniel Craig made the list so it's not a total loss. =)

As well as never winning a Grand Slam event she NEVER won ANY professional singles tennis tournament.
But she doesn't appear to be struggling for her lack of success in sports...
Xcountryflyer @ May 27th 2008 5:41PM
So close yet so far away indeed. She got to a four singles finals of WTA tournaments but came up short each time. At least she has 2 doubles Grand Slam titles.
Ian @ May 27th 2008 5:48PM
Yup. She had the talent, but not quite the desire, or the desire to comeback from injuries and back pain. I am glad she won the two doubles Grand Slam titles.
She still plays some Team tennis each year. Overall she manages her non tennis career with great skill.

How about Maria Sharapova? Hot and Skilled, ranked world #2. That's more impressive to me than Anna
MikeofLA @ May 27th 2008 4:27PM
She's a lot hotter too. Maria wins on all accounts imho... How about Megan Fox?
MikeofLA @ May 27th 2008 4:29PM
oh, never mind about Megan Fox. She got 5%
Vintage @ May 27th 2008 4:14PM
Christina Aguilera?! Come on. She has the body of a 12 yr old boy with implants. She's freaking gross.
Volk @ May 27th 2008 8:11PM
That was UK magazine, I guess it explains. And Scarlett Johansson, really?

Lets see, Christina Aguilera...her tits (can I say tits on autoblog?) are an E now [info courtesy of the girlfriend]. I can't say that I would hit it, and hit it, and keep doing so until the well runs dry. Plus, she's got quite a nice car collection. Including, but not limited to, a Black Phantom, a White Phantom, a blue and pearl Veyron, and a black Ferrari 599. Yeah, if she's ever all over you, and you're thinking my God, get off, pass her on this way, I'll take her off your hands and put her right down on my..autoblog.
Jarett @ May 27th 2008 4:14PM
SO HOT! It's a shame she sucks at dennis. Please autoblog, tell me what anna has to do with cars? My god. Horny people on autoblog.
Jarett @ May 27th 2008 4:15PM
Sorry, I meant Tennis.
Brian @ May 27th 2008 4:17PM
She plays tennis?!?!?
:P
geo.stewart @ May 27th 2008 4:27PM
about as well as Eva acts
MikeofLA @ May 27th 2008 4:28PM
What Pontiac/Holden is that behind her. It looks kind of GTOish, but more aggresive... Anybody?
Mark Ryan @ May 27th 2008 4:47PM
It's a Pontiac GTO with a Woodward body kit
Kaptain75329 @ May 27th 2008 4:47PM
I wanna say that's a souped up Holden Monaro.
Some say you'll see a hot chick in the pic too if you stare at it long enough. :-P
Kayne001 @ May 27th 2008 4:59PM
Scarlet owns both of them in anything. (maybe except tennis and singing, maybe)
Volk @ May 27th 2008 8:13PM
you think, really? without all that makeup you wouldn't event notice her on the street...
Kayne001 @ Jun 4th 2008 7:29PM
You can say that about everyone really, but.
I bet she looks even better without makeup.
Cheekbones, eyes, skin, etc. will stand out, that's why I say no she's way better looking.
