NEW YORK- Jessica Biel has been
proclaimed "the sexiest woman alive" by Esquire magazine. The actress
dons the cover of Esquire's November issue, following last year's
honouree, Angelina Jolie. The 23-year-old Biel, who began as a
teenager on the family TV series 7th Heaven, plays a supporting role
in the upcoming Elizabethtown and starred earlier this year in
Stealth. "It seemed like it would be great -- having named Anglina
Jolie sexiest woman of the year last year -- to try to come up with
somebody who was on everyone's radar screen, but who was also fresh,"
said Esquire editor-in-chief David Granger. "It just seemed like
Jessica Biel's moment." The magazine also picks a woman for three
older age brackets: the Chinese actress Gong Li, 39; the 47-year-old
Sharon Stone; and Rene Russo, 51. "It's easy to appreciate womanhood
without any consideration of age," Granger says. "Youth isn't the
automatic turn-on it used to be."
