People's Sexiest Man Alive 2005 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

NEW YORK (AP) -- Matthew McConaughey has been named the "sexiest man alive" by People magazine.

The actor is pictured on the cover of People's annual issue, on newsstands Friday. For the 36-year-old McConaughey, it's a clear sign that his career is in the midst of an upturn -- and that the glamour of his girlfriend, Penelope Cruz, may be rubbing off on him.

"Now I've made it," he told the magazine. "Wait until you see the roles I could take after this. You're going to see my gut hanging over, plus 22 (pounds). It'll be a whole new kind of sexy!"

McConaughey is the 20th "sexiest man" for People, who first bequeathed the honor to Mel Gibson in 1985. The magazine credited McConaughey's "heaping helping of Texas's finest Southern charm" for the choice. (Read a profile of McConaughey.)

But he says the part of the title that he's proud of isn't "sexiest": "I like the 'alive' part."

The actor, whose career began with "Dazed and Confused" and "A Time to Kill," starred this year in the action flick "Sahara" and alongside Al Pacino in "Two for the Money."

Matthew McConaughey????? are they kidding? Have they finally run out of men?

Who?

Seriously though. Come on. Are you kidding me? I'll admit that the guys that they usually choose are surely handsome men. But Matthew Mcconaughey? Were the people at People (

) drunk?

maleficent · 11-17-2005, 05:59 AM

I'm willing to go with Sexy doesn't always have to be handsome... and a sense of humor is extremely sexy... but he's never been all that funny in anything... the Sex and the City episodes he was in he was annoying - not funny...

Gimme Back Sean Connery... please...

paddyjoe · 11-17-2005, 06:02 AM

year after year and my name never gets mentioned

*sigh*

maleficent · 11-17-2005, 06:10 AM

I say we start a write in campaign....

Paddyjoe is ALIVE
Paddyjoe is a MAN (though we might need proof, facial hair doesn't always cut it - I've seen some women... )
Paddyjoe is SEXY? Sure we can go with that...

aberkok · 11-17-2005, 06:19 AM

Sadly my wife would agree, as she has stated that she would leave me if Matthew McConaughey showed up at the door.

Oh... and Dave Matthews as well. I suppose now all I need to do is make sure they don't show up.

Charlatan · 11-17-2005, 06:24 AM

Fear not!

I will arrange to have them both shot.

Bill O'Rights · 11-17-2005, 06:48 AM

McConaughey?!? Matthew McConaughey?!?

And I get...what? Not even an honorable mention?
That it, People!! I'm cancelling my subscription.

barenakedladies · 11-17-2005, 06:51 AM

backwoods, uneducated, cousin-fucking redneck...

hes got a great ass though!

Carno · 11-17-2005, 07:40 AM

I still think they should give the title to Brad Pitt every year

I think he's pretty damn sexy. He was in "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" right?

He's pretty hot. Not the best though.

I was gonna add you to the write in campaign -- but Paddyjoe asked first...

/me writes to people to have Bill added to sexiest man - -after all he's more than just a bill, and he needs to do more than sit on capitol hill... He should be a LAW dangit..

Daoust · 11-17-2005, 09:07 AM

I'm convinced that my wife is thinking about Mr. McConaughey when we have sex. She's that in to him.

Personally I don't think he's all that. Nice smile... that's about it.

Willravel · 11-17-2005, 10:57 AM

I'd have just gone with Sean Connery again. Stopping SPECTER, fathering Indiana Jones, robbing the rich and saving the poor, being immortal, stopping Al Capone, founding and saving Camelot, curing cancer, and seducing Catherine Zeta Jones at over 80 years old makes him a decent candidate.

5757 · 11-17-2005, 01:03 PM

Yeah, Sean Connery is pretty hot. Have you seen him in 'Darby O Gill and The Little People' ?? It's a great movie. I believe it was his first movie.

Johny Depp is a lot hotter than Matthew. What about him?

Johhny Depp is top in my books.

Sean Connery's first film wasn't Darby O'Gill but it was one of his first major roles... (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000125/)

Mantus · 11-17-2005, 03:31 PM

That's messed up. But atleast they didn't pick Colin Farrell, THANK GOD that little "bad boy"

fuck isn't there.

paddyjoe · 11-17-2005, 04:07 PM

ok, I would concede to 007........

ShaniFaye · 11-17-2005, 04:19 PM

having seen paddyjoe in person I'd vote him over MMc and johnny depp anyday (and I loooooovvvee Depp) Connery would def be in the top 3

dlish · 11-17-2005, 04:25 PM

why is the choice only limited to entertainers? surely theres better looking men who arent actors!

Yeah I guess I was thinking it was his first since it was a bigger one. I really didn't know he had done smaller films. That's what I have for though, right!? You can help me out

I LOVE YOU TOO PADDYJOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
