Boy, I'm sure glad there was no People Magazine in 1932.

Poor Joel McCrea wouldn't have stood a chance.

The offered it to me and I turned them down. Beckham needed the ego boost more.

And for those looking for alternative definitions of sexy, Vogue provides some options, including certain Canuck PM.

They missed Stephen Fry. That man's brain could be in a potted plant and it'd still be sexy.

Once again I was robbed. This year, they claim I didn't qualify as "The Sexiest Man Alive" because I'd been clinically dead for forty-one days last summer.

While this is true, it's clearly just a face-saving excuse. A similar period of death didn't disqualify Matt Damon in '07, nor did Richard Gere's month-long stint as an undead zombie keep him from the title in '99.

Politics.

Y'all who are joking around about the award should go RTFA. It's not exactly an "Oooh nice pecs" rundown, boys.

This is the greatest every way of separating those who read the article from those who didn't but I can't tell if Harvey Jerkwater did or not.

fffm, I don't think you did but you're sort of on the right lines. Would Stephen Fry still be sexy if he joined the Redhands?

You misunderstand. We read the article. We do not speak of it. We dare not.
