This year’s Sexiest Man Alive tells PEOPLE “I never feel I’m sexy,” but we know most of the world disagrees. And while wife Victoria says that “around the house, David is just David,” he also has extra-sexy qualities (yep, he’s beautiful on the inside, too!) that make her love him even more. “He’s a really good person,” she shares of the 40-year-old retired soccer star. “He’s a really great dad, he’s very kind, charitable and he inspires me every day.”
He brought sexy back nine years ago, but this year, JT got even sexier when he became a father – in fact, we dubbed the 34-year-old our Sexiest New Dad. “I’ve never slept less and dealt with more poop,” he tells PEOPLE of life with son Silas, 7 months, “and been SO excited about it!”
The 37-year-old Sexiest Politi-faux pretty much has it all: good looks, a good role on Veep, a beautiful wife and a new son.
A perennial favorite on our list of the Sexiest Men Alive, this year Elba earns the accolade of Sexiest Record Breaker thanks to his extra-fast Bentley ride in May. The only thing that would make the 43-year-old Brit sexier? Landing that elusive James Bond role.
Reasons to love the 35-year-old Scottish Outlander star? Aside from the obvious, he’s willing to get extra-honest about what’s really under his kilt.
Sexiest Newlywed Alive? The 44-year-old star of The Leftovers married Jennifer Aniston earlier this year, but he was always on the radars of smart fans who’d followed his work on projects like Tropic Thunder (he co-wrote the film) and Six Feet Under.
True, he didn’t fulfill any fantasies after backing out of the role of Christian Grey, but the 35-year-old Brit still cruised into hearts with his role (and epic finale moment) on Sons of Anarchy. Up next for the actor? The role of King Arthur in 2016’s Knights of the Roundtable: King Arthur.
Our Sexiest Breakout Star is just that: the 32-year-old California native has gone from unknown to household name since earning his role as Jamal Lyon on Empire.
He’s never not on our minds, but Sexiest Shape-Shifter Gyllenhaal, 34, made headlines again this year for his role in Southpaw, for which he got cut, gaining 15 lbs. of muscle thanks to an intense workout routine.
Nothing to be “Jealous” about: the 23-year-old JoBro has come into his own with a slew of sexy singles and a role on Scream Queens, earning him a spot on our Men of the Year list. And if you’re interested, good news: he’s single.
