Talk about a dame: Helen Mirren has the body of the year, according to a new poll out of Britain.

The 66-year-old Oscar-winner and wife of director Taylor Hackford came out ahead of Jennifer Lopez, Cheryl Cole and Pippa Middleton to claim the top spot in the eyes of 2,000 folks surveyed at the request of LA Fitness.

‘It’s great to see the public celebrating bodies of all shapes and sizes, and proving that you really can look fabulous over 40 and 50,’ a rep for the gym chain said.

For the guys, David Beckham clocked in with the best physique, with Daniel Craig, Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt on his heels.

While the win must be flattering for Mirren, the appreciation of her figure is nothing new. Her ‘Saturday Night Live’ hosting gig in the show’s most recent season touched on her oft-discussed shape -- and assets.

Check out a clip below featuring Nasim Pedrad, Kristen Wiig, Andy Samberg and Mirren’s ‘magical bosom.’
