People's "Sexiest Man Alive": Hugh Jackman

Magazine Announces This Year's Choice On The Early Show

(CBS)  People magazine has ended the suspense and announced its choice for this year's "Sexiest Man Alive": Aussie star Hugh Jackman.

"You can't go wrong" with Jackman, People.com On-Air Correspondent Michelle Beadle told Early Show co-anchor Maggie Rodriguez after revealing the selection. "He's Australian, first of all. He's adorable. He's got one of the best bodies ever. And he's a family man. We all love that. He doesn't -- he's not on the party scene. He loves his kids, he loves his wife. He likes to stay home and make pancakes. He's almost too perfect!"

Jackman and his wife of 20-plus years are "a very romantic couple," Beadle added.

"He has so much going for him," Beadle told CBS News. "He's a triple threat. Singer, dancer and actor."

This is the first time Jackman is People's "Sexiest Man Alive," but he's been in the issue before, in 2006. He replaces last year's choice, Matt Damon.

Brad Pitt and George Clooney have both won twice, the most anyone has.

[gop_will_win]

Thats the problem with this country. There isnt a most honorable man alive or a most decent man alive contest. Women are floozies and dont care about such things.

[honestabe8]

the censoring program edited out d-a-r-n?

[displeased]

I don''t find making pancakes sexxy. And why does making pancakes fulfill perfection?

[kristin1228]

Yeah, not sure who this guy is. People magazine got it way wrong!

[lily1972]

WHY CAN''T I SAY S E X Y !!

[earache4]

Excuse me? Huge what?

[jclark7613]

I totally agree. Especially in the e-men movies that shows his great body....not to muscular and not to skinny

[paris1969]

You cna''t just SAY it, you have to FEEL it....

[likeitis5050]

He is.

[displeased]

I mean, really, pancakes are good but they''re not perfect. Now if he could whip out a tray of homemade lasagna or a coconut cream pie...then I could understand why the ladies would drool.

And what''s wrong with a little partying?

[honestabe8]

That''s what I been going for my entire life, not too muscular, nor am I skinny. Yet, I was passed over once again. Politics...

[excoachken]

Now this is the heavy duty news we need to know. Thanks CBS, now I will be able to sleep well tonight!

[cbscrash072]

I demand a recount!!!

[displeased]

Yawn, America, you''''re headed down the toilet and this is all you can dream about?

Do you mean we''re not allowed to have fun?

[puzzler125]

I swear I dreamt about Hugh Jackman the other night, after getting bombarded with ads for "Australia." He''s got such charisma, can act up a storm and I wouldn''t kick him out of bed for eating crackers either!

[cheetah-man7]

Some people need new role models. And a new life.

[tipsyinct]

one word: DREEEEAAAAAMY

What planet moons have you guys been on? Not only is Hugh Jackman charismatic, good-looking, loyal to his fans, he''s also a fantastic actor. And after having seen AUSTRALIA last night, the title of S-EXIEST MAN ALIVE just doesn''t do him justice.
