Scarlett Johansson Named Sexiest Woman Alive By Esquire Magazine

After watching her performance in Don Jon, it’s no surprise that Esquire named Scarlett Johansson as the Sexiest Woman Alive, not once, but twice. Seven years after nabbing the award by the mag, the actress has snatched it once again.

“I’m the only woman to win twice, right?” she tells Esquire. “You know, I gotta hustle. I’m a twenty eight-year old woman in the movie business, right? Pretty soon the roles you’re offered all become mothers. Then they just sort of stop. I have to hedge against that with work-theater, producing; this thing with Esquire.”  Past winners of the coveted spot included Mila Kunis last year, Rihanna in 2011, and Minka Kelly in 2010.

The issue includes a Q&A with the actress where she talks about jealousy towards her fiance Romain Dauriac. “I don’t think I was a jealous person until I started dating my current, my one-and-only,” said Scarlett. “I think maybe in the past I didn’t have the same kind of investment. Not that I liked my partner less, I just wasn’t capable of it or caring that much.”

Johansson split from Ryan Reynolds a few years ago. He is now remarried to actress Blake Lively, and Scarlett will join him when she says her second “I Dos” to  Romain Dauriac.
