Paul Rudd Has Been Named People’s Latest Sexiest Man Alive
Americans currently disagree about a lot of things that we’re not going to go into right now. Instead, we’re going to focus on something we can all agree on – People Magazine’s choice of for the sexiest man alive. The 2021 winner is Paul Rudd.
The official announcement came by way of a cover photo and feature article in People magazine. Before the magazine released the news, the only person who knew Rudd was the sexiest man alive was his wife. Rudd told People, “She was stupefied.” He added, “But you know she was very sweet about it. After some giggling and shock, she said ‘Oh, they got it right.’ And that was very sweet. She was probably not telling the truth, but what’s she going to say?”
We’re sure his wife must think he’s sexy, but it seems that she was just as surprised as her husband that he might be considered the sexiest man alive. Rudd doesn’t really see himself as sexy. He explained, “This is not false humility. There are so many people that should get this before me.”
Instead of sexiest man alive, the 52-year-old actor sees himself as a husband and father. He thinks other people will be just as surprised by People’s choice. He said, “I do have an awareness, enough to know that when people hear that I’d be picked for this, they would say, ‘What?’ “
Wrong. He was very wrong. Actually, when People announced the news, the internet agreed.

I’m thrilled by this choice! Paul Rudd has been my celebrity crush for years. He is handsome. But, more importantly, he is funny and kind and caring. Did I mention handsome? 🥰

Now that Rudd realizes he’s not only sexy but the sexiest man alive, he plans to “lean into it hard. I’m going to own this. I’m not going to try to be like ‘Oh, I’m so modest.’ I’m getting business cards made.” He added, “I’m hoping now that I’ll finally be invited to some of those sexy dinners with Clooney and Pitt and B Jordan.” He also plans on traveling “on a lot more yachts. I’m excited to expand my yachting life. And I’ll probably try to get better at brooding in really soft light. I like to ponder. I think this is going to help me become more inward and mysterious. And I’m looking forward to that.”
Gotta love his sense of humor.
