Penélope Cruz has been keeping a lower profile in Hollywood since having kids (Leo, 3, daughter, Luna, 1) but that doesn’t mean the gorgeous mom of two isn’t oozing sex appeal…she was just named Esquire’s “Sexiest Woman Alive.”
It’s no wonder Cruz’s profiler Chris Jones gushes over the Latin beauty for his piece on Penelope. “She is impossibly beautiful. When she walks into a room, men start walking into furniture. Up close, however, she becomes almost hard to look at, like staring into the most unflattering mirror. When we meet strangers, we begin scanning their faces for their strengths and vulnerabilities, for the lights and scars that will tell us something about who they are and the life they have lived. Cruz has no physical flaws, the bent noses and crooked teeth we would normally use as signifiers. Her face contains no secrets, at least not about her. But her face tells you and the room plenty about you. If you want to feel like the world’s most judged man, sit down at a table in a restaurant with the Sexiest Woman Alive.”
