It looks as if Minka Kelly's publicist made the winning bid for this year's top honor at Esquire: the Friday Night Lights star was just named the magazine's Sexiest Woman Alive (2010 edition).

Although the show that launched her to glory is ending this year, Kelly is at the top of her game, with a recent pilot, appearance as herself on the season finale of Entourage, and her high-profile relationship with Yankees player Derek Jeter.

Here's the full spread:

That spread makes the decision hard to argue against.

2010 is almost over. Will she still be sexy in 2011?

yawn.

Lil girl could use a spank'n

I hate when it's called a "spread" and she doesn't.

Derek Jeter = herpes.

I don't think she'll be having an affair with Mark Wahlberg.

She's certainly has a perky little ass, doesn't she? Although, judging by ass photo#2, it may be airbrushed in the first one.

Well she's cute, but this is a little like Al Gore winning a Nobel Peace Prize. Seriously?

James Joyce shouldn't have gotten the Nobel, and Sam Bowie was the right pick ahead of MJ.

I was having a conversation the other night with someone who said Jeter never seems to be having fun when he's playing (unlike, say, Nick Swisher and Marcus Thames). I said, "I bet he expresses all his fun while banging Minka Kelley." My friend said, "Who?" So now I don't have to explain that comment anymore. Thanks, Esquire!

She had fun with the Giambi mustache.

Straight girl with a question: What's so sexy about a woman checking herself out in a mirror? I see this kind of shot a lot in men's magazines and not always with girls in lingerie.

Just curious about the appeal.

I think it's cause you then get a shot from both the front and the back.

Also, in the first few seasons of Friday Night Lights, she was hot as hell.

If they expand the "sexiest woman alive" contest to include C-list actresses... why not strippers from vegas, too?

Bo commented on Oct 12 10 at 10:34 am

Minka was chosen as the Sexiest Woman Alive only because Jeter can have any woman he wants, so he's logically going to choose the sexiest woman alive. Incidentally, dead women aren't as sexy.

bearman33 commented on Oct 12 10 at 11:47 pm

Shannon, I think it's because men really like self-involved, high-maintenance women.
