  • Ben Villalobos Thursday, Nov 20 at 3:06 PM FLAG COMMENT Okay ladies, being a regular old hetero kind of guy makes my opinion on the sexiness of men a bit moot. But I'm curious. What happens to all these "Sexiest man alive" men after they win the award? Do they die, thus necessitating election of a new one every year? Or do they possibly lose their sex appeal just one year after the award so that a new man wins it every year? SUCH A STUPID CONTEST!Okay ladies, being a regular old hetero kind of guy makes my opinion on the sexiness of men a bit moot. But I'm curious.

  • Claudia Thursday, Nov 20 at 1:03 PM FLAG COMMENT Ellen De Generes has been trying to get Patrick Dempsey to campaign for this honor just as Clooney and Pitt worked to get Matt Damon on the cover. I think that Hugh Jackman has the body that some past winners have not had, the musical ability to play Broadway, the strength to play opposite Nicole Kidman who commands the screen and throw in some boyish charm. That is a very sexy package. Well done People.Ellen De Generes has been trying to get Patrick Dempsey to campaign for this honor just as Clooney and Pitt worked to get Matt Damon on the cover.
