People's 2008 Sexiest Men Alive

So - as most avid magazine readers know, PEOPLE has a yearly "Sexiest Men Alive" issue, that tells you who they think the Sexiest Men Alive are. 20 people have won the honor of Sexiest Man Alive - 2 of which won the award twice. They started their contest in 1985 and have done it every year since, with the exception of 1993 (they took a break and instead gave Richard Gere and Cindy Crawford sexiest couple alive *shudders*). Here are the previous winners:

1. Mel Gibson, 29
2. Mark Harmon, 34
3. Harry Hamlin, 35
4. John F. Kennedy, Jr., 27 (Youngest winner, only winner now deceased, only non-actor winner)
5. Sean Connery, 59 (Oldest Winner)
6. Tom Cruise, 28
7. Patrick Swayze, 39
8. Nick Nolte, 51
9. Brad Pitt, 31 (won again in 2000, 36)
10. Denzel Washington (only African American to win the honor)
11. George Clooney, 36 (won again in 2006, 45)
12. Harrison Ford, 56
13. Richard Gere, 50
14. Pierce Brosnan, 48
15. Ben Affleck, 30
16. Johnny Depp, 40
17. Jude Law, 31
18. Matthew McConaughey, 37
19. Matt Damon, 36

The issue is usually full of other people who garner a noteable mention. From what I've heard, 2008's issue hits newsstands Friday - tomorrow. But if you JUST CAN'T WAIT, here's a sneak peek at this year's hotties! Here are the top 15:

1. Hugh Jackman

I'm not linking all of them... because I don't want to make the magazine lose sales... I'm not sure if I'm mad at them yet... lol. Also - there are 129 total - add that to the 16 I didn't get on the top 100 list, and the 2 that AREN'T IN THE VIDEO (I'M ONTO YOU PEOPLE), that makes a total of 47 I don't know. If the rumors are true - all my boys made it, so... yay!

I encourage you all to get it... cuz I like the contest. lol!

Congratulations to Hugh Jackman for FINALLY winning the honor - everyone knows he should have got it SOONER!! And congrats to Daniel Craig - 2nd place is nothing to scoff at! :)

I officially start my vacation tomorrow... so... no updates for a while. I'll get back to ya'll.

Get ya mind right, and have a great Thanksgiving!!!
