Halle Berry Covers Esquire Mag as “Sexiest Woman Alive”

You see, the years go by and you learn, and that just deepens your understanding of every experience. And then sex is better — it feels like you’re in control, and you’re sort of not in control at the same time, and that is completely satisfying.

So, yes, there are times when I feel like the sexiest woman alive, but would I ever argue that I am the sexiest woman alive? Of course not. I figure at one moment the sexiest woman alive is a waitress in Abilene, Texas. And in the very next second, it’s a woman in the bush of Vanuatu. Then, right away, somewhere else. Sex and sexiness. It’s all about the moment; it’s about what you know as much as it is what you offer. That’s why I share this title with every woman, because every woman is a nominee for it at any moment. Maybe that’s why there are so many women these guys love.

If there were a real event where they gave an award for this title, I would wave the trophy here. I would thank everyone all over again, then I’d probably blow a kiss to Tom Chiarella for helping me write this. I would turn my head and say, “You can start the music now, I’m done.” I’d be wearing pumps. I’d be just a little breathless. And I admit I would not rush off the stage.
