As you may have heard, People announced their Sexiest Man Alive for 2024 on Tuesday night, and once again the majority were disappointed in the democratic process. And once again there’s some controversy surrounding just how legitimate the vote really was…
The Sexiest Man Alive, according to the magazine, is John Krasinski.
Yes, John Krasinski, who had a really steamy kiss as part of one of prime time TV’s premier will-they-or-won’t-they couples… in 2006. And who had an abtastic glowup everyone was talking about… in 2015.
Look, he’s OK, we’re sure he’s been somebody’s #1 pick. Emily Blunt sure is into him. That’s all fine, we’re not here to shame y’all. But… it’s 2024. And he’s Sexiest Man this year??

Seriously, The Office alum barely even appears onscreen anymore… there was Amazon‘s Jack Ryan series — but that ended over a year ago! When’s the last time he was the hottest name on everyone’s list? On anyone’s? It’s that major miscalculation that has a lot of folks looking back at and resharing a blind item reportedly posted by DeuxMoi a few weeks ago. Someone sent her in the hot tip that Sexiest Man this year was doing A LOT to get his title. And spending a lot. They wrote:
“This A-List actor who is starting to fall from stardom was willing to pay millions of dollars to be ‘chosen’ to be 2024’s Sexiest Man Alive. He knows that people are losing interest in him and he thinks that spending the money on the title is a good investment in gaining back momentum for his career.”
WHOA!
That’s a pretty big accusation! If true, it wouldn’t mean just that Krasinski is illegitimate but that the whole Sexiest system is corrupt!
We mean, what are they talking about here? Sexy bribes? Sexy payola? Do we need sexy campaign finance reform?? How does someone spend millions to become Sexiest Man apart from greasing palms? And we mean that of course in the corrupt way, not the right greasy palms way that a man should get picked as Sexiest.
The other question, of course, since this was before the issue was unveiled… Were they even talking about Krasinski? We mean, was he ever really an “A-List actor”? We guess being married to an A-lister kind of got him the plus-one invite. But also, he’s been more about directing since 2018’s A Quiet Place anyway, why would sexiness matter for a career boost? We don’t know, it doesn’t seem to fit, right? Still, Deux did say she was hearing Krasinski was going to get the title about a MONTH ago, so… Hmm.
Here are some mixed reactions to Krasinski’s title — and allegations he paid for it:
“not him going through emily’s purse for this nothing title im ctfu”
“Nothing says ‘sexiest alive’ like desperation”
“Tbf this could apply to literally anyone who could’ve been chosen (realistically)…”
“Imagine paying millions just to get roasted online”
“this is what happens every year. why tf do you think patrick dempsey got it last year ????”

But what do YOU think, Perezcious readers?? FWIW Deux posted on Wednesday that from what she’s heard “on VERY GOOD authority” you CAN’T pay for the title… so not sure she posted that blind item in the first place.
Let us know how you feel in the comments (below)!
