People’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ 2024 revealed

John Krasinski has been named People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” for 2024.

The big announcement was made during Tuesday’s episode of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”

The “Jack Ryan” star confessed he thought he was “being punked” when he learned he won the title.

“Just immediate blackout, actually. Zero thoughts,” he told the magazine in his cover story, adding, “You guys have really raised the bar for me.”

As for his wife Emily Blunt’s reaction to the honor, Krasinski said she was “very excited.”

“There was a lot of joy involved in me telling her,” he said.

Additional men featured in this year’s issue include music producer Benny Blanco and the male stars of “New Girl” — Max Greenfield, Jake Johnson, Damon Wayans Jr. and Lamorne Morris.

Last year, actor Patrick Dempsey took the top spot, telling the outlet he was excited to have “the platform to use it for something positive” — like raising awareness for the Dempsey Center.

The “Grey’s Anatomy” alum, 58, has been providing free programs, counseling and support for cancer patients through the care center since founding it in 2008. Over $1.8 million was raised for those impacted by cancer in 2023 alone.

While the Hollywood heartthrob also admitted that scoring the honor did, in fact, help boost his ego, he confessed in this year’s “Sexiest Man Alive” issue that it made him “more anxiety-ridden.”

Fellow actor Chris Evans echoed those sentiments in 2022 when he was named the “Sexiest Man Alive” — but confirmed his close friends kept him in check from developing too big of an ego at the time.

“Really this will just be a point of bullying,” he joked. “It’s ripe for harassment.”

In 2021, People named Paul Rudd the “Sexiest Man Alive” but he, too, was nervous about the laughs he would get from the title.

“This is not false humility,” he assured the outlet. “There are so many people that should get this before me.”

Additional honorees from past years include John F. Kennedy Jr., Patrick Swayze and John Legend.

Meanwhile, Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Johnny Depp and Richard Gere have all made the list twice.

When Gere was first picked, it was alongside his then-wife, supermodel Cindy Crawford, and they were named the “Sexiest Couple Alive.”
