People magazine has declared that Australian actor Hugh Jackman is the Sexiest Man Alive for 2008. I can’t say I disagree with them. It’s about time he won the honor.
I definitely know he’s the sexist HUGH alive. I can say this with all authority, because I have a cousin named Hugh, and, sorry, Sonny, you ain’t got nothing on Mr. Jackman.
I love this quote:
The magazine’s executive editor, Jess Cagle, said Wednesday on NBC’s “Today” show that Jackman is a “surprising choice,” but he’d been on the editors’ minds “for a long time and it seemed like this was the year to do him.”
Ahem.
What say you? Does Hugh deserve the title? Who would you rather have seen in his place? Why do we keep track of such things? Why isn’t there a Sexiest Woman Alive? Isn’t that sexist?
