Actress tops the list of hottest women in showbiz, is very modest about it

That Jennifer Aniston is beautiful is not news anymore, having long been labeled one of the most attractive presences on the scene. The label is still sticking to her: Men's Health has just named her the hottest woman of all time.

Mind you, Aniston has just been granted the ultimate distinction from the magazine: it's no small thing to say one woman is the hottest of all time.

In landing on the top position, Aniston bests so-called love rival (at least in the eyes of the tabloids) Angelina Jolie, Mila Kunis and the ultimate iconic blonde, Marilyn Monroe.

She's worthy of the title because she's the perfect combination of good looks, smarts and humor. Perhaps more importantly, despite her fame and the huge paychecks she commands for a single film, Aniston remains extremely relatable.

It's perhaps this last feature that made her such a hit with men and women alike, Men's Health writes.

“Her down-to-earth persona makes her seem attainable, and anyone who’s seen her in 'Office Space' has to admit she makes even pieces of flair look good. She rarely plays the airhead, and she seldom overplays a role: she’s funny in a quiet, refreshingly human way,” the mag says.

“And her all-too-human love life off-screen inspires sympathy that not even a string of bland romantic comedies can diminish. [T]hroughout her career Aniston has remained [hot], funny, and unmistakably real,” the publication further says.

The latest issue also comes with an interview with the star, in which she proves, once more, that she's incredibly funny and real.

In between jokes about how she can actually breakdance and which would be her ideal man (six-pack and a good sense of humor), she also says that, for her, the title would have gone to either Bridgette Bardot or Gloria Steinem, not herself.
