The Sexiest Thing

People magazine has named Matt Damon its Sexiest Man Alive for 2007.

This is Damon’s first time as the title holder – which probably means BFF and two-time honorees Brad Pitt and George Clooney, who have campaigned on his behalf since 2001, are going to have a sexy, fun time welcoming him into the club.

“You’ve given an aging suburban dad the ego-boost of a lifetime,” Damon told People.

Also making the magazine’s list are David Beckham, Patrick Dempsey, Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds, and Will Smith.

I haven’t seen the issue yet, and I don’t mean to be prematurely fastidious, but did Daniel Craig make the cut? How about Eric Dane? Or Adam Levine?
