The Proposal actor Ryan Reynolds, who is married to actress Scarlett Johansson, who was named Babe of the Year by GQ magazine this week, was awarded the title by the publication in their annual list and, although he expects to be teased by his family about the accolade, he is hoping to boast about the title to strangers. He said, “You
just have to go with the flow. This gives my family entre into teasing me for the rest of my life. Now it’s going to be, ‘Sexiest man, take out the garbage.’ That does sound better. The most difficult part is going to be organically working this title into a conversation with random strangers.”
While Ryan has been named Sexiest Man Alive, he admits he has to work hard to maintain his toned physique.
He joked to People, “My body naturally wants to look like Dick Van Dyke. When I stop training, I turn into a skin-coloured whisper.” Other stars to feature in the list include Mad Men actor John Hamm, Twilight Saga hunk Kellan Lutz, actor-turned-rapper Drake and Glee star Matthew Morrison, who made up the top five.
