I checked out People’s sexiest man alive cover and boy oh boy was I disappointed. It was like… Yaaaaaaaaawn.
There are certain people who transcend sexiness, or possess a transcendent sexiness. Adam Levine, while attractive enough in a skinny metro-sexual kind of way, ain’t one of them.
For example, if People put Brad Pitt on the cover every single year I’d be content. They’d get no argument from me and I’m not generally attracted to blonds. Brad Pitt. Every damn year. He’s like Sean Connery, who is the king of permanent sexy. Brad Pitt will be sexy until forever. Like I said, transcendent.
Julia’s List of Transcendent Sexy Men:
Sean Connery
Brad Pitt
Gerard Butler
Denzel Washington
Hugh Jackman
James Earl Jones
My husband ‘Oscar’
James Earl Jones, you ask? But he’s more of a classical actor, you say, he’s never played sexy roles. Ah, but James Earl Jones has the most winning smile in the history of the universe. (Sorry, Brad- you come in second!) His smile makes me melt and it has since I first saw him… When he blew me away in The Great White Hope.
Ya’ll must have your own list. C’mon, you know you do. Let’s hear it!
(Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!)








I love your list, but I also love blonds…so I’m adding Bradley Cooper too the sexy list.
Thanks, Amber!
Good list. And that’s great you included your hubby.3
Well he’s a sexy beast, Sandra!
Sheesh, just because I haven’t been around too much I don’t even get an honorary mention, what’s going on …….
xxxx
Oops! Tom is all Scottish which means he’s all sexy all the time!
PEOPLE Magazine needs to hire you to do the annual award, Julia!
(And you could get Tom an honorary mention at least, too!)
Yeah, Tom is the sexiest of all, but Oscar would be so jealous Marylin! Thanks!
I saw that magazine cover too. Adam Levine IS NOT HANDSOME, OR GOOD LOOKING, LET ALONE SEXIEST MAN ALIVE. He is not talented nor even mildly good looking.
I would like to know how much he paid People to get that title.
Only man on your list I think is handsome is Denzel. Used to think Sean was handsome till he made that crack about hitting women. Lost all appeal for me after that.
Not too many really handsome men out there these days. Jeffrey Donovan and the actor who plays Castle are only ones I can think of right now.
Can’t say I disagree with you, Roberta. Of all the men they could have chosen…
I had to Google Adam Levine just to find out who he is. He’s kinda cute but that’s as far as I’d go. He’s almost funny when he tries to pull sexy looks, and he has to be the first man I’ve seen for whom the stubble look does NOT work.
I’d have Sean Connery, Hugh Jackman and Chris Hemsworth on my list. Even hubby says that’s hard to argue with LOL
Yes, Ciara - Chris Hemsworth. For sure. Adam Levine seems like such a random, out of left field, choice!
