Halle Berry named sexiest woman alive

New York (ANI): Halle Berry has been named sexiest woman alive by Esquire magazine. The twice-divorced actress gave birth to daughter Nahla, her first child with model Gabriel Aubry, in March.

"I don't know exactly what it means, but being 42 and having just had a baby I think I'll take it," the New York Daily News quoted her, as saying. According to Berry, sexiness isn't necessarily what is on the outside. "Sexiness is a state of mind a comfortable state of being. It's about loving yourself in your most unlovable moments," she said.

And at the age 42, Berry feels hotter than ever. "I know damned well I am sexier now than I used to be," Berry said.
