With change so as….. final yr Idris Elba received the award. Elba’s dad and mom had been married in Sierra Leone and later moved to London. Skip 12 months later, and this yr’s race (voted by a share of the three.three million readers) additionally proved a distinct end result than the anticipated. Drum roll please.

This week the 2019 coveted title was given to the American “man of the second” – John er… Legend (he presently options as a coach on The Voice tv exhibits). Social media exploded. Has the bar been lowered, are voters now simply ticking the “woke field” or is model and style merely altering? Idris surrrrre… however John Legend? Many readers mentioned that overblown political correctness must look within the mirror. The “All of Me” singer himself was…. additionally moderately stunned on the recognition.

The 40 yr previous Grammy winner says he now feels beneath “stress” and mentioned he’s “excited,” but a “little scared” about receiving the well-known title. “Everybody’s going to be selecting me aside to see if I’m attractive sufficient to carry this title. I’m [also] following Idris Elba, which isn’t honest and isn’t good to me!”

Fellow celebrities to mocking followers had been lower than pleasant…..

Debatable appearances pushed to the aspect, Legend remains to be one of many few musicians to have an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony every. So excessive 5 to that, however with out sounding like Scrooge meets the Grinch, I dare query the motivation behind this yr’s winner. Gifted he may be – however a heartthrob?

Individuals Journal chooses its Sexiest Man Alive for numerous causes; as former Individuals Journal Editor Larry Hacket explains:

“We all know it needs to be a mixture of somebody who’s scorching however well-known. Not too younger, not too previous and someone who, frankly, possibly we haven’t considered… Attractive actually has to do with somebody being handsome, and has to do with a sure type of romantic, flirtatiousness bodily attraction that could be past simply educational appreciation of the way in which they appear. We would like some thriller in our sexiness.”

In the meantime, Hollywood actor and winner from final yr, Idris Elba, was filled with reward and proud to cross on the baton; “My G Congratulations brother!!! You deserve it. DO NOT TELL @TheRock He nonetheless thinks he’s obtained the title, I didn’t have the center to inform him after I took it.”

Appears having a chiselled jaw is soooooo 1993 and with the WOKE crowd all alert to racial or social discrimination and injustice – it appears that evidently instances have modified. Was Mr John Legend one other tick within the PC field or do you suppose he actually is the sexiest, smartest, most romantic man alive?

I’m positive his spouse thinks he’s!
