Forget Eva Longoria (a bit rodent-y in the face) or Aishwarya Rai, (too banana nosed) Penelope Cruz, (overbite) or Nicole Kidman, (botoxed and a bit blue-white) the votes are in, and New York babe Scarlett Johansson has won the sexiest woman crown bestowed by the editors of Esquire magazine.

Johansson's curvy natural (read: no breast implants) figure, full lips, perfect skin, almond shaped eyes and gorgeous frame combined with her choice movie roles have brought her many fans. Among them, Esquire magazine. They have just crowned her "Sexiest Woman Alive."

The 21-year-old actress poses in revealing outfits on the cover and inside pages of the magazine's November issue, on newsstands Oct. 18th.

On the cover, she wears a bra and a white Calvin Klein mini-dress; In a series of photos inside (showing her as an "enigmatic trailer-park temptress," the magazine says), she wears cleavage-baring black lingerie paired with an open white robe, among other costumes.

Johansson, whose screen credits include "The Black Dahlia," "Lost in Translation" and "Match Point," says she would rather be admired for attributes other than being so shaggable.

"What about my brain? What about my heart? What about my kidneys and my gallbladder?" she asks, addressing all the hoopla about her curves in an interview in the magazine.

She is no stranger to the paparazzi's cameras, and once flashed a sign proclaiming, "the person taking this picture is harrassing me."

"Apparently I spelled `harass' wrong," she recalls. "It was horrible. I couldn't remember whether it was one `r' or two, and I asked like four people, and they said two."
