In support of National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the 44-year-old 'Head of the Class' actress teamed up with the National Domestic Violence Hotline and retailer Marshalls for their annual "Shop Til It Stops" program. OK! magazine caught up the former 'Head of the Class' star for a candid interview in which she talks about Tyson's recent appearance on Oprah Winfrey. "I think it's great," she said. "Michael was such a hero, and to many people, he still is...There was a time I remember when Michael did an interview, and said the best punch he ever threw was against me," she revealed. "It was the first time he hit me. He remembered it exactly. He hit me on the head, and I went bouncing from one wall to another, and then I was out. It was interesting for me to have him remember it and recite it so vividly, so I guess I stand here before you hoping that he owns up to what he did."

Top 30 Sexiest Actresses of All Time:
First off, we acknowledge that 'sexiness' is extremely subjective, but since when has that stopped anyone from offering their opinion? It certainly hasn't kept us from taking note of the women who have served it up to us over and over again on the silver screen. That kind of consistency deserves recognition. That's why Black Voices took time out to compile a list of the top 30 sexiest actresses of all time. Although many of the women on our list have excelled in various media throughout their careers, we decided to rank each actress based on their "sex appeal in feature films, roles and scenes." Whether you agree or disagree with our rankings, we want to hear your opinion. Why not give us your own top 30 sexy actresses list?
