10 things you never knew about 'Sexiest Man Alive' Adam Levine
Adam Levine has been named “Sexiest Man Alive” by People Magazine, beating out previous winners Ryan Reynolds and Channing Tatum to earn himself the top spot.
To accept
the flattering award, the Maroon 5 frontman gave a speech on
Jimmy Kimmel, thanking the various
people in his life – including his “sexy” mom and dad – who made it all
possible.
“This award
actually means everything to me,” he joked. “Becoming this cool, confident and
seductive has been quite a journey.”
Of course, he had to give one Canadian frontrunner credit where it was due.
"Ryan Gosling, thank you for turning this down constantly," the 34-year-old quipped. "That really helped my campaign.”
There’s more
to
The Voice judge than just good
looks alone, however.
How well do
you know the so-called “sexiest man
alive?”
