Front-Row Faces
Isabel Lucas
Stone Cold: Leave it to Michael Bay to find another knockout for his Transformers franchise. Lucas, a soap star in her native Australia, plays a hot morphing robot in the summer blockbuster, and—poof!—just like that, reigning male fantasy figure Megan Fox has some competition. Sure, Fox may have cornered the market on Maxim and FHM covers, but speaking from the front row at Chanel this summer, Lucas revealed she's appearing in a spread for Vogue Italia. Lucas, 1; Fox, 0.
She's Crafty: A hot morphing robot? If that doesn't sound like the stuff of serious acting, wait for spring, when Lucas—a graduate of the prestigious Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne—stars in Steven Spielberg's HBO World War II miniseries The Pacific.
She'd Rather Go Naked: Trilingual (her mother's Swiss and her dad's Australian; she speaks English, French, and German), tow-headed, and demure, Lucas could be confused for a goody-goody. Not so much: She's actually wanted for arrest. The animal lover joined Hayden Panettiere in protesting Japanese whaling practices in 2007, which led to charges of "interfering with international commerce."
Most Likely to Be Spotted At: Chanel, Stella McCartney.
