Minka Kelly Is Esquire Hottest Woman Alive

The latest issue of Esquire Magazine crowns actress Minka Kelly the hottest woman alive – judging by the stunning photospread included in the pages of the November issue, it’s no wonder that she deserves the title.

Kelly, known for her television roles and some appearances in feature films, is also famous for her modeling gigs and for being in a relationship with Yankee Derek Jeter.

Aside from doing the photospread (which, of course, sees her in lingerie and men’s shirts), Minka also opens up to the magazine about growing up, growing old and her body.

For instance, she talks about what it was like to have an exotic dancer for a mom. Though she was often away to work for most of the night, the star also has some fond memories of those times.

“Sometimes she would have a really great night, and so she would wake me up in the middle of the night and we’d go to Ralphs and go grocery shopping. And that was so much fun,” the star recalls.

“We’d have the whole grocery store to ourselves, and we would have a blast and buy a hundred dollars in groceries. And it was just the best day ever. The best day,” she says.

Minka, as fans should know, turned 30 this summer, in June. Speaking of her birthday, she says she’s come to embrace growing old – not only that, but she’s actually happy she’s not 20 anymore.

“I think it’s the most exciting birthday I think I’ve ever had. I’m so excited to be a woman. Done with the twenties,” the actress tells the mag.

With age also comes a lot of confidence, including after the acceptance of what which one may perceive as flaws.

“I’m confident... in my skin, and I’m cool with my flaws and all that stuff. It just feels nice to be at peace with yourself. I think my thirtieth birthday gave me permission to have all that,” Minka explains.

In the same interview, the actress also reveals she’s in the habit of thanking waiters for cleaning her plates after she’s done with a course, saying she couldn’t possibly imagine not being kind to anyone.

She would even bet his kind to a person who’d clean her toilet – assuming she had someone to do that. Fun fact: “I clean my own toilet,” Minka Kelly says.
