In the cover story for PEOPLE’s Most Beautiful edition, the 49-year-old says that she’s flattered by the honour.
She was also asked about the fact that she’s way ahead of her friend George Clooney, who has been PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive twice.
“I’m going to mention that in my Christmas card to the Clooneys this year,” Roberts said.
Roberts was 23-years-old when she was first honoured by PEOPLE Magazine, the year after she found instant fame from starring in the romantic comedy Pretty Woman.
