People's Sexiest Man Alive: George $%&*ing Clooney?

Our friend John Trudell said it seems like America has stopped trying. My theory is different. I think they offered the title to this guy (pictured) but he turned it down. Is it merely a coincidence that he's on the cover of Entertainment Magazine right now?

??? Stopped trying what? To produce sexy men? To reject a dumb choice by a popular weekly magazine with an annual gimmick?
There are plenty of sexier men than Blake Shelton, for sure. In fact, I'm kind of surprised that Barb felt so strongly against George Clooney. He seems fine to me. With the exception of Blake Shelton and Adam Levine, most of the SMAs have seemed acceptable, at least at the time they were named (obviously I'd have other thoughts now about, for example, Mel Gibson).
Is that the guy from Outlander? I haven't seen that show.
It's funny, though, now that I think of it; we were talking about the SMA on Jeff's blog and I now realize that most of the men we were saying we found sexier are not American: Colin Farrell, Christian Bale, the Hemsworths, Ryan Gosling. So maybe there's something to John's theory.

I never got George Clooney. You might think that because I'm gay I'd get him, like some women do, but I don't. :( :laugh:

Yes, he is. I've never seen the show either, but sometimes good. old-fashioned TV Guide has it's uses. ;D

That's an interesting point. When was the last time the SMA was an American?
(Mel Gibson was born here, but I think maybe he doesn't count.)
Front-Ranger:
I don't think John will mind if I paste his whole quote here: "Donald Trump is presidential; Jeff Sessions is honest; Roy Moore is a Christian; and Blake Shelton is the "Sexiest Man Alive." It's like America has totally stopped trying."
And here's the cover of Entertainment with Sam Heughan (yes, indeed, he is the hero in Outlander):

Never understood the George Clooney thing.
I, however, very much like Adam Levine.
No idea who Blake Skelton is.
But Sam Heughan in Outlander is outstanding!

He's not a U.S.-ian either, is he?
