What can be sexier than when a stunningly beautiful woman reveals that she has a lot more going for her than just her beauty? These 10 Oscar-winning actresses are not only breathtaking to look at, they also happen to be among the very best Hollywood has ever seen. Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor and Grace Kelly anchor the legends while Kim Basinger, Halle Berry and Charlize Theron head the list of contemporary goddesses. It's going to be fun to see which talented lady—Kate Winslet? Anne Hathaway?—joins these legendary ranks with this year's Academy Awards.


1. Halle Berry, Best Actress – Monster’s Ball, 2001

Proving she’s capable of playing more than just super sexy Bond girl Jinx, Berry won a Best Actress award for her unforgettable role in Monster’s Ball. Her win made Berry the first Bond girl, but more importantly, the first African-American woman ever to win an Academy Award. She accepted her award weeping, shaking and utterly overwhelmed with emotion—but gave one of the most memorable speeches in the award show’s history, dedicating the award to “every nameless, faceless woman of color that now has a chance because this door tonight has been opened.”
