Actress Mila Kunis has been dubbed ''the sexiest woman alive'' by Esquire magazine in its November issue out this week.

Kunis, 29, a one-time star of the TV comedy That '70s Show, was lauded by the men's magazine on its website as ''the most beautiful, opinionated, talkative, and funny movie star that we've all known since she was nine".

As a grown-up, the native of Ukraine electrified audiences with a solid performance opposite - and sometimes in bed with - Oscar-winner Natalie Portman in the 2010 ballet movie Black Swan.

She recently showed her comic chops in the surprise hit, Ted.

Next year she will star in Oz: The Great and Powerful, and she is the voice of Meg Griffin on the animated Fox comedy Family Guy.

Runners-up this year included Jessica Chastain, Anne Hathaway, Precious star Gabourey Sidibe and newly divorced Katie Holmes.

Kunis joins the ranks of past Esquire choices, including Oscar winners Charlize Theron and Halle Berry, and last year's winner, Rihanna.
