I definitely agree...this was his YEAR! Such a hottie, especially with baby Isabella!

I think Matt is good looking but he just looks really old in that picture

ummm..okay..i wonder how come men like clive owen, gerad butler..dont be considered..im just asking?..well..conrats to matt ..

Matt damon!!?? c´mon. i mean, I like him as an actor and looks like a really nice and down-to-earth man, but I don´t find him sexy at all, Where the f*ck is Chris Evans??, that´s sexy not Matty or that twat named Justin Timberlake

Matt Damon could be the only actor that does it for me. I have no words.

Finally~! I thought they'd never get off the old goat's of Hollywood~! Matt is young, fresh, a decent and loyal family man, PLUS one hell of an actor. I'd pay to see anything he was acting in. Congrats Matt, no one got this for you, you earned it all by yourself...wink!!

Meh. I just don't get all the fuss about him.

what???

what about johnny Depp

I'm happy with the choice.
Should make things interesting on the next Ocean's set!

To people that are doubting Mr. Damon, tell me one movie that he was crappy in. Tell me when he kicks butt in the Bourne series you aren't like "dear god thats hot"

Johnny Depp: The Astronaut's wife? Seriously bad. Plus dude has no fashion sense

Chris Evans: Who? Sometimes its also about being pretty on the inside

Gerard Butler: Was in one movie and isn't that big of a name

Clive Owen: Acne scars. Plus he was in the pink panther with Beyonce.

The only other person I could really put up there with Matt is Patrick Dempsey. He has been around forever, and also has that family man sense to him.

I'm soo happy, he is sexy and its about time, ben use to get everything.

I don't get it at all.

However, I'll take the picture of Ryan.

He deserves it. He's VERY sexy. Jason Bourne...yummy. But I personally think Johnny Depp is still sexiest man alive. Jack Sparrow, do me.

skinnymarie no one is doubting him..hes attractive..but i dont know about the "sexiest man alive" now thats a big title..

I'm just glad it's not the usual Brad Pitt or George Clooney.

Sorry, got a bit defensive. But it can't always goes to Brad, George, and Matthew Mc.

Yesssssssss! OMG yesssssss! I LOVE matt damon so muchh and am so glad he won!!!!!!! Im with u on that one skinnymarie! He's fresh, young, talented. I like Johnny Depp myself, hes pretty talented buh No1 deserved tha title besides Matt......Hes simple perfect! GO MATT I LOVE YOU!!!!!! Omg im soo happy!

Good choice.......I think Johnny Depp should get it one of these times too.

I think Gerard Butler would be surprised to hear he's only been in one movie!

What's neanderthal justin timberlake doing there?

LOL..its okay..i agree with u skinnymarie..im glad its not the usual either...fresh meat is always good.. but people have opinions..ya know

yah I def. sick of brad and george getting it. I dont think you have to be the quindisential good looking man ,but it's an attitude. I feel since he's been married and has had kids he seems more confident, so it shows he is def. sexy.

it is good to see someone different. i think hes so cute. fatherhood stepped him up a notch.

I'm happy to see Patrick Dempsey and Ryan Reynolds on the list.
Johnny Depp's gonna be on every "sexiest" list until he's 80. That guy just doesn't age. Brad Pitt on the other hand, isn't looking so good.

I have always liked Matt and since becoming a dad, in my eyes he has become even better. I guess we all define sexy differently.

Except for Ryan Reynolds, now that is sexy.

Johnny Depp has gotten it before.

matt damon is NOT sexiest man alive
and he looks OLD in that pic

Gerard Butler has been in a lot of movies. His imdb page say's 32! And he is really hot!

I thought it's a choice of a "sexy" not a "good actor"?
(I don't think Damon is such a good actor anyway - he rarely TALKS in his movies! - he just walks or runs around with a sulky expression - Bourne series, The Good Shepherd, The Departed)

Johnny Depp has a fashion sense - he is unique, not generic like most of Hollywood stars. And what is Damon's style? All-American Abercrombie t-shirt and jeans?

My types for sexy males:
Clive Owen
Christian Bale
Johnny Depp

jinx..i know..hmmm..

levi from chuck looks HOOOOTTTT also! good picture of him

Matt sexy???!!! No!!!! I wish it was Depp

I love it! I like that he's not typically "gorgeous" but to me, that's what is sexy about him!
He loves his family and seems to be a great dad with a good head on his shoulders. Nothing's sexier
yayyyyy*

These lists are stupid anyways. Seriously, how do you pick the sexiest man alive to begin with, and then keep everyone happy.
Can't be done.

christian bale woulda been a good pick also.

i agree jinx...i dont think its based on votes....maybe populoraity....dont worry we have next year..LOL

yes! christian bale would be a great choice!

This list lost it for me when they included that goon Sean Avery (hockey player) - the man is a freaking a*hole racist pig! And PS - the NHL has many, MANY hotter players than him. And Justin Timberlake can barely fit his head through the door. Doesn't PEOPLE think abuot the inside-sexiness of a man?

I think they pick based on how much they've done. Christian bale did that 3:10 to yuma gima movie, so I feel they always pick who ever has been doing a lot of work that year. Once you are on the DL they don't acknowledge you, because your not out there promoting.

oh pop called this years ago, lol. good for matt

Matt is a good choice. Johnny will always be my Number 1 though.

are you kidding me? I don't go for these "sexiest" man alive deals because they are pretty much usually wrong in my eyes. MAtt's a great actor but NOT sexiest man alive. Give a best actor alive award and I'm in...but please no sexiest, it just doesn't fit.

Everything by the way is fixed. It's who will sell the most magazine covers.

Well.. I do miss the British B-actors The Bean, Bloom and Bale.
Heres a little portrait I painted of Damon couple of years ago; http://www.bobified.com/malin/portfolio/illustrationpics/portraits/a_Mat...
