David Beckham Crowned PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive of 2015

David Beckham Crowned PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive of 2015

David Beckham is a global superstar, devoted husband and down-to-earth dad of four. And now, the British heartthrob is this year’s Sexiest Man Alive.

“It’s a huge honor,” Beckham, 40, tells PEOPLE of scoring our 30th anniversary Sexiest Man crown. “And I’m very pleased to accept.”sma-cover-a-435

Although he’s been a sex symbol for nearly two decades, the self-effacing soccer icon isn’t sure he’s even deserving of the mantle. “I never feel that I’m an attractive, sexy person,” he says in this week’s cover story.

“I mean I like to wear nice clothes and nice suits and look and feel good, but I don’t ever think of myself that way.”

Still, when Beckham shared the news with his wife, fashion mogul Victoria Beckham, 41, she was totally on-board. “I would hope that she feels this way about me all the time anyway!” he says with a shy smile. “But she said, ‘Congratulations!'”

    Sexy and ignorance is such a great combination! I mean, I hate football (can’t stand the stupidity on the field) but I’ve known David for like ages, with his dreamy eyes and gait…he so deserves it.

    His wife tho…lmao

    It’s a tough one really.. Christiano should be having this award no doubts.. But it seems he’s trying to force the good looks this days, he is trying too hard. Where as Beckhams is just natural. So at 40 years it’s understandable that becks is still scooping the awards.

    It’s hard to believe tons of hot men bath together, play and chill togther and are not attracted to eachother. I know lots of footballers would be gay or Bi but are neatly tucked in their closets and don’t ever contemplate coming out.

    I have always had this sick twisted fantasy of being (play) raped by the full Man Utd’s U21 Team at a go in the locker room of the first squad.

      I don’t think he’s been Sexiest Man Alive before. And those other men you know who are sexier will get their turn, I’m sure. 🙂
