Who have been your model roles throughout your life?

We often choose public figures as role models. Every year, YouGov conducts a poll to discover the world's most widely admired women and men. These women and men come from many walks of life. According to the 2016 poll, the most admired woman in the world was Angelina Jolie. She has used her considerable fame as an actress and celebrity to aid the poor. People also admire political figures such as Xi Jinping and Barack Obama, and religious figures such as the pope and the Dalai Lama. It's amazing how much we idolize these public figures even though most of us will never get to meet these famous idols in person!
