So we all know that GQ Magazine thinks that Jennifer Aniston is the best example of masculinity in 2005. But she’s not the sexiest man. That role falls to Matthew McConaughey, according to People magazine.
And Matthew McConaughey isn’t just the sexiest man of the year, either. People magazine has named Matthew McConaughey The Sexiest Man Alive, striking a blow for both non-sexy and non-alive men everywhere.
Up until recently, Matthew McConaughey (DVDs) was known for one event – the
time when police found him mashed off his loaf on marijuana dancing
around his house naked and playing some bongos. Since then, McConaughey
has found fame by un-receding his hairline and getting to do the boinky boink with Penelope Cruz now
and again. The combination of these three has been enough for People
Magazine to name him as the sexiest man alive. McConaughey told People:
"I like ‘Alive’ part. Now I’ve made it. Wait until you see the roles I could take after this. You’re
going to see my gut hanging over, plus 22 (pounds). It’ll be a whole new kind of sexy!"
Matthew
McConaughey is the 20th person that People has named sexiest man
alive. It’s now a proud tradition that stretches back to 1985 when Mel
Gibson was awarded the title – in his pre-scary bearded religious
phophet stage.
But who were the runners-up in the ‘not quite as sexy as Matthew McConaughey but still quite sexy’ list? Funny you should ask…
Patrick Dempsey – lovely hair.
Terrence Howard – well-kept facial hair.
Viggo Mortensen – good at killing people.
Vince Vaughn – not afraid to be a bit on the tubby side.
Nick Lachey – because he bloody well loves his wife, OK?
Daniel Dae Kim – every Korean on Earth laughs at the way he mispronounces words on Lost.
Keith Urban – hairy cowboy.
Ian McShane – sweary cowboy.
Heath Ledger – fairy cowboy.
Matt Damon – suspiciously neat.
Denis Leary – why?
Anderson Cooper – some kind of newsreader, we’re told. No Bill Turnbill, that’s for sure.
Clive Owen – the man who could have been Bond.
