The youth-obsessed style and entertainment industries may have convinced you that women don't age well, and that you can't have serious sex appeal once you've lived half a century. To put it simply: they're wrong. Here's our list of the sexiest women over 50. You may not agree with all our picks, but read through to find out why we think they sizzle.
The Sexiest Woman Over 50: Holly Hunter

Why She Sizzles: Academy Award-winner Holly Hunter is one of the most-respected, hardest-working actresses in Hollywood, yet she strikes us—and many of her fans—as genuine and down-to-earth. With her strong features and athletic figure, Hunter brings unconventional beauty to the strong and nuanced characters she portrays. She has admirably avoided being typecast throughout her twenty-seven year film and TV career, and continues to prove her staying power with her hit TNT drama series, Saving Grace.

When We First Fell in Love: Hunter’s portrayal of baby-craving policewoman Edwina in Raising Arizona (1987) was surprisingly tender. We loved to hear her say “Fee-ance.” Career Highs: Ms. Hunter is brilliant, so she shines in everything she’s in. She won her Academy Award for playing a mute pianist in The Piano, for which she played her own piano pieces. She also taught costar Anna Paquin sign language. She’s a genius.

“Work”: No. Hunter definitely hasn’t messed with her face. And it’s perfect just the way it is.

Good choice for #1. I haven't thought about her in a while, but she looks damn good. She was good in Raising Arizona and still looks the same!
Sorry, where are Barbara Eden (I dream of Jeannie), Victoria Principal, Dolly Parton?
O.K., Good list but, who picked Holly Hunter for #1? Are they on something? She is so nowhere near "SEXY" or "HOT"!!!! Hell, even Jennifer Tilly is so much more "do-able" then her! You guys got the list right, just got the numbering of the list ALL WRONG!!!
I don't think that she's the prettiest but she looks good though. Jane Seymour or Christie Brinkley are hotter than her. The list is o.k but not the ranking...
R U out of your mind? No way Holly is number one! Even my grandma would fit better than her inon this list!
Being fan of her movies is one thing, being sexy ...come on!
shes not sexy at all! so looks all wrinkly!!
i mean eww.
where is angelina joli????
Holly Hunter is NOT sexy, she sounds like a hick and looks like one too. I can't believe Michelle Pfeiffer came in second to her. I think this list is backwards anyways, the people in last should be near the top, (Katey Sagal, Deborah Harry, etc.) WHO CAME UP WITH THIS LIST????
What are you thinking where the @#$% is Morgan Fairchild?????????
Where in the hell is Diane Lane? She without a doubt belongs in the top 5!!!
Diane Lane is only 44.
Fo'i PALI IFO
means "you got a sweet bussy"
means "you got a sweet bussy"
Holly Hunter is totally hot. Good choice.
Maybe it's just me, but it seems that sexiness was based on more than just looks. Have you ever heard her voice?
angelina jolie sexiest rest of all after 10th rank.
