John Krasinski chosen as Sexiest Man Alive but fans have declared these stars as Sexiest Musician and Sexiest First Time Dad. Full list here

While ‘The Good Place’ star John Krasinski might have bagged the Sexiest Man Alive title this year, many worthy contenders were competing for that title. A few days before the final results were announced, People Magazine released a list of delectable men who were declared victorious in several innovative categories, such as Sexiest First-Time Dad to Sexiest Talk Show Host. Here’s a comprehensive list.

Sexiest Musician

Harry Styles is no stranger to victory in this category, having claimed the title several times before, but this year’s win felt even sweeter after a fierce TikTok campaign from Role Model (who is clearly the iconic one) and standout years from Zach Bryan and Shaboozey, both of whom have had a very successful and captivating run.

Sexiest New Heartthrob: Jacob Elordi

Jacob Elordi, known for his roles in Saltburn and Euphoria, exudes a captivating charisma with his tall, dark, and handsome features—he’s practically the ideal fit for those fold-out posters from Teen People. (Of course, we'd also make room on the wall for fellow heartthrobs Nicholas Galatzine, Gavin Casalegno, and Manny Jacinto!)

Sexiest First-Time Dad: Robert Pattinson

Robert Pattinson, best known for Twilight, is rocking diaper duty after welcoming a daughter with fiancée Suki Waterhouse in March. He humorously shared, “[Having a baby] makes you feel both very old and very young.” Other first-time fathers like Justin Bieber, Maluma, and Cole Tucker are also managing sleepless nights while keeping their appeal intact.

Sexiest Hand Man: Chip Gaines

With his construction expertise and heartwarming bond with his wife, Joanna, HGTV’s Chip Gaines was a natural choice to win in this category, which also featured notable names like Property Brothers Jonathan and Drew Scott, Ty Pennington, and Jonathan Knight.

Sexiest Long Married Star: Tim McGraw

Every man in this group, including Denzel Washington, Kevin Bacon, and Ted Danson, has enjoyed over 25 years of marriage, but it was the harmonious partnership between ‘Don’t Take The Girl’ hitmaker and his wife Faith Hill that earned him the top spot in readers' votes.

Gen SeXiest

When it came to choosing the ultimate heartthrob of the '90s, readers couldn't get enough of Shemar Moore! The S.W.A.T. star and recent father has been turning heads since his early days on Living Single. The runners-up in the vote were Benjamin Bratt, Matt Dillon, and Ethan Hawke.

Sexiest Summer Action Star

Let’s set the record straight: Glen Powell may have taken on one irresistible role after another this year, starring in Anyone But You, Hit Man, and Twisters, but we’d still happily enjoy a bucket of popcorn with runners-up Ryan Gosling ( Fall Guy) and Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds ( Deadpool & Wolverine) anytime.

Sexiest Fiyero

These guys are all incredibly charming, but it’s Jonathan Bailey’s portrayal of Fiyero in the upcoming Wicked movie that truly stole your hearts and made them soar. (That said, we'd still gladly join Taye Diggs, Joey McIntyre, or Aaron Tveit for a little "Dancing Through Life" anytime.)

Sexiest Talk Show Host

These guys are all incredibly charming, but it’s Jonathan Bailey’s portrayal of Fiyero in the upcoming Wicked movie that truly stole your hearts and made them soar. (That said, we'd still gladly join Taye Diggs, Joey McIntyre, or Aaron Tveit for a little "Dancing Through Life" anytime.)
