Michael B. Jordan named People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” for 2020
Actor Michael B. Jordan has been crowned 2020’s Sexiest Man Alive by People magazine. Jordan, known for his critically-acclaimed performances in Fruitvale Station, Creed and Black Panther, was revealed as this year’s winner on Tuesday night on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live!
The 33-year-old actor is one of Hollywood’s most eligible bachelors and his Sexiest Man Alive win comes on the heels of musician John Legend’s recent reign.
“It’s a cool feeling,” he said to People about the title. “You know, everybody always made that joke, like, ‘Mike, this is the one thing you’re probably not going to get.’ But it’s a good club to be a part of.”
Jordan is the 35th celebrity to receive the honor since the annual campaign started in 1985, when Mel Gibson was given the title. Others who’ve graced the cover include two-time winners of the crown like Johnny Depp in both 2003 and 2009, George Clooney in 1997 and 2006, and Brad Pitt in 1995 and 2000.
The 33-year-old Jordan said the women in his family are “definitely proud of this one.” He credits his entire family for supporting him throughout the years.
“When my grandmother was alive, it was something that she collected, and then my mom naturally reads it a lot and my aunts as well,” Jordan said. “This is one that they’re definitely going to have a special place for.”
