I nailed this one a few issues back…that is, uh, I subscribe to Esquire and as Mink and I were looking at the Sexiest Woman Alive feature…I guessed correctly that it was Scarlett. I should be careful how I phrase things…

Scarlett Johansson’s hourglass figure and plum movie roles have brought her many fans. Among them, clearly, the editors at Esquire. The magazine has just crowned her “Sexiest Woman Alive.”
The 21-year-old actress poses in come-hither garb on the cover and inside pages of the magazine’s November issue, on newsstands Oct. 18.
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 get-ups.
Johansson, whose screen credits include “The Black Dahlia,” “Lost in Translation” and “Match Point,” says she would rather be admired for attributes other than sex appeal.
“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.”
