Berry given plum title by Esquire team

HALLE BERRY may be a mother of a certain age, but the men’s magazine Esquire says the Oscar-winning actress is still the Sexiest Woman Alive.

In an article posted on the magazine’s website (www.esquire.com), Berry writes about what she thinks of winning Esquire’s annual honour for the first time.

“Well, I don’t know exactly what it means, but being 42 and having just had a baby, I think I’ll take it,” Berry wrote.
