Paul Rudd has been named People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2021.
The announcement was made on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” a bold move since the host jokingly tried to steal the title last year.
“I do have an awareness, enough to know that when people hear that I’d be picked for this, they would say, ‘What?’ ” Rudd told People in his sexiest man alive cover story. “This is not false humility. There are so many people that should get this before me.”
The 52-year-old actor has become a meme in recent years over his seemingly ageless looks.
“When I think about myself, I think of myself as a husband and a father, like I’m that,” he said. “I just hang out with my family when I’m not working. That’s what I kind of like the most.”

And, according to Rudd, he expects being considered one of the sexiest men alive to come with some perks.
“I’m hoping now that I’ll finally be invited to some of those sexy dinners with Clooney and Pitt and B Jordan,” he said. “And I figure I’ll be on a lot more yachts. I’m excited to expand my yachting life. And I’ll probably try to get better at brooding in really soft light. I like to ponder. I think this is going to help me become more inward and mysterious. And I’m looking forward to that.”
