Sexiest Man Alive is an annual feature in People Magazine. According to Wikipedia, it is billed as a benchmark of male attractiveness, determined in a similar procedure to Time's Person of the Year.

Mel Gibson was the first man to be awarded the title in 1984, when the Hollywood actor was 29-year old. John F. Kennedy was the youngest man to be declared as the Sexiest at 27-years old in 1988, the only non-actor to be be given the title and is the first title-holder to have died (the second one is Patrick Swayze.) James Bond actors Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan are also in the list, with the former also being the oldest person to receive the title at 59-years old.

Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Johnny Depp and Richard Gere won the award twice, although Gere orginally won Sexiest Couple in 1993, with Cindy Crawford, before bagging the title in 1999.

25 Years of Sexy: People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive! special will be broadcast on Wednesday, November 17 at 10pm on ABC.
