Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke is crowned this year's "Sexiest Woman Alive" by Esquire magazine, and she has the sexy photoshoot to prove it. The year-old British actress ditches her clothes for a few of the stunning shots, looking confident in the steamy pics. Clarke talks about her upbringing in the candid interview, including the fact that she wasn't exactly encouraged to aim high as a kid. My brother was already going [he's two years older], and I fancied his friends. Obviously, Clarke has succeeded beyond all expectations. Though her Game of Thrones character, Daenerys Targaryen, is a clear fan favorite, she reveals that she was definitely not what the casting director wanted at the time.
