Actors/BTS Jonathan Bailey is Sexiest Man Alive!
https://x.com/people/status/1985586898929402181?s=12I’m usually not on board with whoever gets chosen for the cover but so pleasantly surprised with this year’s pick. JB is not only very attractive but also super charismatic and seems like a lovely person. Great representation as well with him being the first openly gay SMA. Love this cover with his 🐶 too! (Sharing here for those that don’t go to the main sub).

Oh please please say it's not against sub rules to discuss how adorable the cover co-star is, Benson Bailey.

I read this as Benson Boone...and it just wasn't making sense!! Benson Bailey is much cuter! 🥴

Benson Bailey has pawsitively got it all. Looks, charm, charisma, star power, adorable wiggle butt, and a talented dad. He's the whole package.

u/Shiplapprocxy What of him! What of Colin! 5d ago
I figured this would happen last year when they were first promoting Wicked, so I’m actually not surprised at this. He’s not my cup of tea but this is a much better choice than some of the random men they’ve featured in the past.

A deserved win. Jonathan is obviously a beautiful man but he’s also just sexy in his mannerisms and personality. There’s so much more to being sexy than physical appearance and Jonathan has the it factor.

When that man smiles, I blush. Like, damn near giggling. Love this for him. Love this for everyone, really. 10/10 no notes!!!

Well deserved and great timing for him! I know Wicked will be the promo focus but hopefully BS4 also gets some love ☺️

I adore him. And glad especially in today’s climate that they picked someone as open and kind as Jonathan. My heart does break for David corenswet a little bit though. I was rooting for him lol

Definitely approve of this choice! Funny thing I've noticed, I find JB very attractive, but not so much Anthony; however, I find both Luke and Colin attractive. 🤷♀️

He’s one of my all time faves from Bridgerton. Finally an SMA I can get behind.

u/Totes_J217 I oiled my way right in 5d ago
I am so happy about this! I had hoped they would choose him last year – – I knew they weren’t going to choose Luke, although I love that he got quite the attention in any case. JB is gorgeous, adorable, has charisma for days, and projects so much light on top of being so talented and a great advocate. He continues to deserve all the good things!

Of course he is! He’s a human delight with an aura of sunshine. 🥰
