LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Halle Berry is sexy. Tyra Banks is sexy.

So are Alicia Keys, Michelle Obama and Paula Patton.

Those lovely ladies are just a few of the celebrities who have been selected by “TV One Access” as the 16 Sexiest Black Women Alive.

“Countdown: The 16 Sexiest Black Women Alive,” will air on Sunday, March 8 on cable network TV One.

In addition to naming the top list of on-screen sirens, “TV One Access” also gives viewers a look at the women who embody categories such as “Sexiest Athletes,” “Sexiest Sense of Style,” and “Quintessential Complete Package.”

“The women selected as our 16 sexiest black women aren’t just pretty faces. Each one of them is uniquely talented, strong-minded and self-assured,” said Monique Chenault, Senior Producer, “TV One Access.” “Now what could be sexier than that?”
