İlsu Demirci Officially Certified as the Most Beautiful Actress in the World 2026

İlsu Demirci is officially certified as the Most Beautiful Actress in the World 2026. The Turkish actress takes first place in Nubia Magazine's global survey with 325,546 votes, leading a field of 95 nominees.

Her result comes after a close contest with Kim Jisoo, who finished second with 322,608 votes. The margin between them is 2,938. Yağmur Yüksel completes the top three with 73,334 votes, while the full closed poll recorded 960,762 votes.

A face audiences are getting to know

Demirci plays Mercan in Arafta, the Turkish drama produced by Rains Pictures and GoQuest Media. The role pairs her with Emin Günenç as Ateş. Away from the storyline, her individual presence is at the centre of this announcement: an expressive gaze, a warm smile and a natural poise that gives her portraits a distinctive character.

Her appeal is in that balance. There is glamour in a carefully composed photograph, but also an ease that does not disappear when the styling is simpler. A change of expression can make the image feel thoughtful, lively or quietly confident. Those contrasts give her more than one way to hold the camera's attention.

A closely contested result

The survey closed on August 31, and the final ranking brings together familiar names and emerging faces. Nancy McDonie places fourth, followed by Cemre Gümeli, Cemre Arda, Lisa, Lingling Sirilak, Sıla Türkoğlu and IU. Demirci's first-place total puts her at the head of this varied group.

This announcement recognises the Most Beautiful Actress in the World 2026, the global title for the actresses' category. Nubia Magazine is the certifying publication. The dedicated Top 10 article and video present the complete result, while this feature gives the winner her own space.
