The mixed reactions to who has been dubbed People’s Sexiest Man Alive contrast the resounding praise Dr. McDreamy received when he won the title in 2023.
Renowned talk show host Stephen Colbert recently had the honor of revealing the Hollywood heartthrob who won the title of People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2024. Although many netizens agree with the result, others are struggling to reconcile with the outcome.
Gold envelope in hand, Colbert said, “Without further ado — Joe, drumroll, please.” As the percussion sound ensued, the talk show host revealed, “This year’s People’s Sexiest Man Alive is…John Krasinski!”

The audience erupted into cheers as the striking magazine cover of Krasinski appeared on a screen behind Colbert. “I mean, look at him, I get it. Plus, we’re friends so, a very, very sexy congrats to the very sexy John Kra-sexy,” remarked the charismatic host.
Colbert, who pretended to be sad that he didn’t win, joked, “I just […] really thought this was gonna be my year. No! Who are we kidding? I’m never gonna be the Sexiest Man Alive.”
Soon after Colbert’s playful act, the man of the hour (Krasinski) appeared on stage, garnering a loud and joyful response from the crowd.
When he was seated next to Colbert, Krasinski, who donned a charcoal-colored suit jacket and formal pants, engaged in banter with the TV personality.
“I heard the news and I had to come as soon as I could, ’cause I know how bad you wanted to be People’s Sexiest Man Alive, and so I just came to see if you’re ok,” stated Krasinski.
In response, Colbert humorously noted how “thoughtful” his famous friend’s gesture was, before dubbing Krasinski’s thoughtfulness as “such a sexy quality.”
Colbert then noted that Krasinski probably received the accolade because of his kind nature. “Well, I think it’s that and the biceps,” reasoned Krasinski.
The friends continued to exchange more jokes concerning “The Office” actor’s win, with Colbert pointing out that Krasinski has only beaten him once in an arm wrestling challenge, which the star corrected to “twice.”
“Stephen, it’s ok, alright? You’re not the Sexiest Man Alive, but who cares? Who is? Except for me, apparently,” expressed Krasinski, prompting more laughs from the audience.
In addition to the comical interview with Colbert, Krasinski sat down with People to discuss his win during a photoshoot.
Speaking about his reaction after hearing that he would be receiving the title, the “IF” director divulged, “Just immediate blackout. So, the brain just turned off actually. Zero thoughts other than, maybe I’m being punked, and then after that, it was just full surreality.”
He continued, “That’s not how I wake up usually thinking, ‘Is this the day that I’ll be asked to be Sexiest Man Alive?’ And yet, it was the day. You guys did it. You guys really raised the bar for me.”
