People Magazine – Sexiest Man Alive Winners (by Year)

People magazine is at it again; They have named their “Sexiest Man Alive” for 2010. I’ll give you 3 guesses who the stud will be?

No, it’s not McDreamy.

Nope, it’s not “The Situation”, either.

Jim Belushi? Now you’re just being silly!

While all these men would’ve made excellent picks for ‘SEXIEST’, there is one who stands above the rest; RYAN REYNOLDS.

“Who?”, you ask? Well, if you don’t know him by now, you may never ever ever know him, oooohhhh. Sorry, it’s been a while since they played that song in supermarkets, leaving me without a normal fix of Harold Melvin & The Notes.

Ryan Reynolds has starred in such films as National Lampoon’s Van Wilder and The Proposal alongside Sandra Bullock, however, his biggest gig is the up-coming comic book flick “The Green Lantern.”

Oh, and if you haven’t seen the cult comedy “Waiting…”, you may want to pick that up and learn about “The Goat.”

So what does being named Sexiest Man Alive by People Magazine mean for the career of the ‘Chosen One’? We go back in time to find out…

In 1985, People Magazine gave the honor to a young Mel Gibson, of Mad Max fame. He went on to star and direct in some of the defining films of the last 25 years. He also went on to beat his girlfriend while she was holding his baby and release a series of hilarious party tapes. My personal favorite quote from the tapes: “You should just shut up and BLOOOOWWWW me!”You tell her, Braveheart!

In 1986, it was Mark Harmon who earned the title, and as we all know; Mark Harmon is God.

In 1987, it was Harry Hamlin, who did nothing.

In 1989, Sean Connery got the nod, mostly because the editor was a year away from retirement at the time.

At the turn of the decade they named Tom Cruise the Sexiest. Seemed like a good bet at the time, after all the man did dance around in socks and underwear while singing Old Time Rock and Roll. That’s gotta count for something. So what if he ended up becoming a freaky Scientologist and went batshit crazy on Oprah. No biggie.

Fast forward to 1992, when Nick Nolte inexplicably graced the cover. Yea, THAT Nick Nolte. No, not that guy, you’re thinking of Gary Busey. Two totally different people, I assure you.

In 93, Richard Gere and Cindy Crawford were named the Sexiest Couple Alive. Of course, this was until Richard decided to show his penis on screen. The fact that he was packing like an infant in the dead of winter didn’t exactly help the matter.

1995 marked the year of Pitt. Brad took home the prize and I’m talking long-haired, squinted-eyes, look how hott I am Brad. Not scruffy, beanie-wearing, If I wasn’t so rich I’d be homeless Brad.

Denzel Washington was the man in 96, marking the first black man to bring home the crown. Let’s think of him as the Jackie Robinson of People Magazine. You go, Denzel!

Next up was George Clooney, who breezed through ER and became a household name almost overnight. I honestly have nothing funny to say about him, except he had his Penis rendered fruitless. ME 1 GEORGE 0.

1998 was Harrison Ford’s time in the sun. Too bad that sun must cause old age because Harrison looks like he’s ready to play a round of golf with George Burns and Frank Sinatra.

1999 marked the first time a man held the title Sexiest Man Alive twice. So Richard Gere and his small penis made an appearance again.

Of course, if People gave Richard Gere 2 Sexiest titles, they HAD to give a second to Brad Pitt, which they did in 2000. Nothing for nothing, but Brad looks swell in this cover.

Next up was Pierce Brosnan, who is the second man to play James Bond and be named Sexiest on our list. People later retracted this award based on the monstrosity that is ‘Dante’s Peak’.

Ben Affleck gave his best James Dean impression on the 2002 cover. Unfortunately, he only won this award because he was sleeping with the biggest ass in Hollywood, Jennifer Lopez.

2003 marked Johnny Depp’s first appearance, and he would go on to play a gay pirate in celebration. HUUUGAHHH Me MATEYS!

In 2004, Jude Law was next in line for the crown, however his career disappeared soon after. It is rumored it’s hiding in Charlie Sheen’s lost watch.

Matthew McConaughey was the big thing in 2005. It’s ashame every character he does is the same, from Failure to Launch to Surfer Dude, he’s dropped his share of bombs.

An older, grayer George Clooney topped the list again in 2006. He’s alright in my book.

After years of Ben Affleck bragging about it to Matt Damon, Matt finally got his. The far superior actor and writer, Damon took some bumps getting to the top (Stuck on You, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back) but eventually made it big with The Bourne Trilogy.

Wolverine was number 1 in 2008. To celebrate he went out slashing people’s tires along the upper-eastside of Manhattan while singing showtunes.

And finally, Johnny Depp brought home his second cover in 2009, primarily due to his appearance as the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland. Ohhh LA LA!

So what does the future hold for Ryan Reynolds? The Green Lantern is a good start. People these days are eating up these comic-book flicks like they’re doobie snacks. He already has a decent resume, and I’m assuming there will be a sequel to Green Lantern in the works after the opening night numbers roll in.

Finally, who is the early favorite to win the title next year? We have a sneak peek;

CHAZZ BONO.

She’s a MAN Bay-Bee!

Mel Gibson Divorce Sets a Hollywood Record

Mel Gibson is a well-known and beloved actor of the screen that will be remembered for many years to come. He is probably best known for his genius roles in movies such as Braveheart, Lethal Weapon, and Conspiracy Theory. There is a good chance on any given day that you can turn on your DISH Network and see him in one of his legendary roles. While several of his movies have earned awards for their excellence, he has recently set a record for something entirely different. It is believed that his recent split with his wife, Robyn, ended in the most expensive settlement for divorce in the history of Hollywood.

If this is true, this record is indeed a remarkable one. Hollywood has been known for offering some expensive splits.  Among some of the most expensive is the estimated settlement costs between noted director Steven Spielberg and Amy Irving came to about $100 million. Harrison Ford and his X-wife, Melissa Mathison, ended in an estimated $85 million settlement amount. It was also estimated that Kevin Costner and his wife, Cindy Silva, were not far behind the Ford’s with a possible $80 million in settlement costs. Each of these Hollywood splits was undoubtedly strenuous on their bank accounts; however, if the estimates are correct, they do not hold a candle to Mr. Gibson’s divorce conclusion.

At the time of the split about one year ago, (April 2009) Gibson and his wife were worth about $900 million. This sum is no surprise considering the grand success these two had shared in the last three decades together. Gibson has been nominated for various awards as well as taken home his share of honors for numerous achievements on screen. With several awards to his credit for categories such as Favorite Actor and Best Director, it is no wonder Gibson has accumulated so much wealth.

Mel Gibson Divorce -Most Expensive Ever?

Unfortunately, with fame and fortune there often comes heartbreak. After 28 years with his wife, the two called it quits. They have seven children together. Although the exact settlement amount is undisclosed, it is still estimated that this power couple’s divorce settlement is the highest in Hollywood’s history.  Gibson’s career will undoubtedly continue as his success in Hollywood has been matched by few. With several honors received from the Academy Awards, Golden Globes and People’s Choice, this record for the estimated most expensive divorce will not be the only thing that Gibson is remembered for.
