“Sexy has become synonymous with Solenn. How could we deny her the title?” said Esquire Philippines in its video.

According to the press release of Esquire Philippines, it said "Every February though, we pick one woman in particular who we believe is the Sexiest Woman Alive. After much heated discussion and rigorous scientific verification, the Esquire Philippines team has determined, to our complete satisfaction, that it is none other than Solenn Heusaff. The famous French-Filipina shows us how she does more with less – less clothing, inhibitions and fear."

The French-Filipina model-actress posed nude on the cover of the February 2013 issue of Esquire Philippines. Solenn Heussaff dares to have a naked photo but in a separate interview she still believe that being sexy is not simply defined by posing nude in front of the camera.

Esquire Philippines February 2013 issue is available in print at your favorite bookstore and in digital format for iPad via the Esquire Philippines app and via Zinio for your Android tablet or smartphone.
