Mary Camden is all grown up. Jessica Biel, who rose to fame as the eldest daughter of a preacher in TV's 7th Heaven, has been named the "Sexiest Woman Alive" by Esquire Magazine.

The 23-year-old actress was described by Esquire editor-in-chief David Granger as "an underground icon to the generation of men who are coming of age now. She's been this unexpected but iconic figure for a long time." We're not sure what this means exactly but we agree that she's undeniably gorgeous and sexy.

Biel, hot on the heels from her latest film Elizabethtown, takes over the crown from last year's winner Angelina Jolie.
