Penelope Cruz Is The Sexiest Woman Alive

Esquire has named its sexiest woman alive and this year's winner is Penelope Cruz. I would have voted for a different Cruz sister, but they didn't ask me. No one remembers last year's winner who was Scarlett Johansson, and this year will probably be no different. The only time anyone remembers is when people get screwed over like Ryan Gosling losing to Bradley Cooper in People's sexiest man alive. of course there was that whole Gwyneth Paltrow winning the People award for Most Beautiful Woman. See, those are what the average person remembers. I do seem to recall that Jessica Biel won the first Esquire award and other winners have included Rihanna, Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry and Charlize Theron. One time I would like Esquire or People to take a vote of readers to actually come up with someone that average people think are the sexiest people alive instead of making this a contest of who has the best publicist.

  1. They picked a mother of 2 with real breasts and no real history of a drug problem so I say let's let Penelope have it without any real argument. She IS gorgeous.

  2. Better than GOOP. If you look from the neck down Biel looks damn good in bathing suit/bikini. ScarJo meh.

  3. In career terms, Penny should have been the world's sexiest woman in 2004 or so. Now it kind of smells like a comeback attempt.

  6. Yes it had been painfully clear that over the last few years whoever wins the Sexiest Man Alive has a movie coming out that month which was not the case I think in the beginning, before People became fully Kneepadded.

  7. Thee was a blind not long ago RE: an upcoming cover /titlethat would be out of nowhere..(ala Gwyneths) and the real reason behind it.. I can't remember the details but this is recalling it to mind(not saying it's Penny)
    She does look astonishingly lovely, and I hope it is actual recognition....

  8. She is fantastically beautiful!

  9. She was pretty sexy when she kissed Scartlett. I wonder if she ever misses Tom Cruise. She's hot, but not 1/2 your net worth hot

  12. What has she done this year, that anyone would even remember her?

    ReplyDelete
  13. She's very pretty but please, she isn't even in the top ten. And hasn't anyone ever heard of Photoshop?

  14. Gee, Enty, if "Sexiest" was voted on over the internet, Cumberbatch would win everything thanks to the 119 Cumberbitches worldwide who spend their lives voting him into things...

    Cruz is 40 and looks great after 2 kids. I like that Esquire had the balls to name her when the pro-Netanyahu brigade was trying to get her, Almodovar and Bardem all sent to Movie Star Prison.

  15. @Sadie..I was thinking the members of One Direction and whatever other piece of teen fluff was out there would win because teen girls would flood the voting.

    And I agree Penelope was a good choice.

  16. I am okay with this as long as it means Goop is no longer the sexiest woman alive.

  17. Double Meh. SUSAN BOYLE was ROBBED!

  18. Agree with disco, loved her in VCB. Enty really has a thing for her sister.

  19. Tricia - I think you're on to something!

  20. I wonder who Esquires audience is. Penelope does look good and while I applaud they chose someone NOT 18 she's not been working much lately. But she does look good.

    I would like to see a poll taken to get the public's ideal "sexiest".

    ReplyDelete
  21. She's very beautiful. I was never there on the ScarJo or goofy vote. Each to his/her own I guess

    ReplyDelete
  22. I agree @Tricia

    This statement may have been accurate like five/ten years ago

    ReplyDelete
  23. Goopy before, now putálope. If they keep this progression... Lena Dungham, you're next.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Of course all these 'prettiest, hottest, sexiest' promos are controlled by pr folks. But I agree, Cruz is beautiful and a great choice.

    ReplyDelete
  25. The whole concept is just silly. If someone is the Sexiest Woman Alive in year X, what happens between that year and the next year to suddenly make her not the sexiest woman alive?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Ugh.

    Sooo not the sexiest woman. Tired of having to pretend she's super hot, and tired of her getting nominated for an Oscar every other year.

    ReplyDelete
  27. She's alwYs been one I named when talking of who i think the prettiest actresses are, prob top of my list. Before her I thought the same of CZJ and Selma Hayek. But when they're personalities became I visible, I could see I was wrong.

    And. THERES NEVER EVER JUST ONE, AND NEVER SOMEONE THAT EVERYONE AGREES ON.

    I don't get the scar jo thing. I think she can look great, and theorems something sexy about her some times. - but not to tbe extent if tbe attn that's paid to that about her.

    ReplyDelete
  28. So... what is she promoting?

    She is beautiful, I'm happy for her but, if there's anything I've learned about these "honors", they're all coordinated through publicists and studios.

    *shrug* I guess it's better than when they try to make some unknown "happen".

    The choice is fitting for Esquire, this isn't Maxim or FHM or something. She's a classy choice. Well cultured, intelligent, working mother & wife, actual TALENT (big emphasis on that one), a hands-on philanthropist. She's the sexiest woman for people with more discerning tastes than swimsuit magazine fan bases.

  30. I would have gone with JLO...
