Perfect Strut?
In the “Don’t they have anything better to do” department…
Jessica Alba, the film actress, has the ultimate sexy strut, according to a team of Cambridge mathematicians.
The academics found that it is the ratio between hips and waist that puts the sway into a woman’s walk – and the nearer that ratio is to 0.7, the better.
According to the article Jessica’s walk is rated highest because her body proportions meet exactly at the 0.7 ratio. But there’s more, as is often the case. According to this blog entry the study was commissioned by Veet, a waxing and depilatory products company. (”depilatories” means hair removal if you didn’t know that.) So of course they wanted to have the study results reflect their own selected standards, which would promote a woman with beautiful legs. You should read the blog post, it’s fun. 
The best part? The blog that reveals the true nature of the “study” is hosted by the Guardian, the direct competition to the Telegraph. The Telegraph released the original article.
