Esquire readers have voted 42-year-old new mum Halle Berry the sexiest woman alive. "I don't know exactly what it means, but being 42 and having just had a baby, I think I'll take it," Halle says. "Sexy is not about wearing sexy clothes or shaking your booty until you damn near get hip dysplasia; it's about knowing that sexiness is a state of mind - a comfortable state of being. It's about loving yourself even in your most unlovable moments. I know a little bit about that. Sexiness is also about knowing what's sexy to you. I like what I am now. I like being a mother. I like my body better since I became a mother. I feel sexier as a result of becoming a mother."
