NEW YORK - Katie Holmes, Rosie O'Donnell and Anna Nicole Smith's baby
daughter, Dannielynn, are among the boldface names on OK! magazine's list
of "most influential" celebrities.

The list of 19 famous faces, which appears in the magazine's latest
issue, on newsstands Friday, was separated by editors into six
categories: beauty queens, style setters, entertainers, newsmakers,
survivors and body shapers.

OK! named Holmes, the 28-year-old wife of Tom Cruise and mother of their
1-year-old daughter, Suri, a beauty queen because of her "refreshing
girl-next-door look" and sporty cropped haircut. Beyonce and Jennifer
Lopez also made the cut.

O'Donnell, who brought ratings and controversy during her tumultuous
tenure on ABC's "The View," made the list of newsmakers, as did Hollywood
supercouple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, and "Grey's Anatomy" star T.R.
Knight. Knight announced he was gay after it surfaced that Isaiah
Washington had used an anti-gay slur against him during an on-set clash
with a co-star.

The youngest celebrity on the list: 10-month-old Dannielynn Hope, who was
recognized as a survivor because she has been "at the center of
Hollywood's most controversial tragedies," the magazine said. Her mother,
Anna Nicole Smith, died in Florida in February. A bitter paternity
dispute between Howard K. Stern and Larry Birkhead was put to rest months
later when Birkhead showed he was Dannielynn's father.

The top three entertainers -- the "people who decide what we watch and
listen to," according to OK! -- were "American Idol" judge Simon Cowell,
Carrie Underwood and model-TV host Heidi Klum.

Tyra Banks was among the "body shapers" who influence notions of body
image. Banks, who was dubbed fat after she was photographed on the beach,
later appeared on her syndicated TV talk show in a bathing suit.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Justin Timberlake and Kate Moss were named the most
prominent trendsetters in fashion.
