The American magazine People traditionally chooses the "sexiest man alive" every year. In 2023, 57-year-old actor and race car driver Patrick Dempsey became the main sex symbol among men.
The star has appeared on the pages of this very issue of People countless times over the years. And it's not surprising! His performance in the 1987 movie Can't Buy Me Love or his role as neurosurgeon Derek "McDreamy" Shepherd in the 2005 TV series Grey's Anatomy made Dempsey wildly popular with his fans and gave him the status of a heartthrob.
The magazine has already shared Dempsey's reaction to his "grand return" to the title of "Sexiest Man Alive".
"I was absolutely shocked, and then I started laughing, like, this is a joke, right? I've always been the bridesmaid! I'm glad this is happening at this moment in my life. It's nice to be recognized and, of course, my ego takes a little hit, but it gives me a platform to use it for something positive," the actor said.

As you know, People's editors choose their winners not so much based on external factors as on a man's achievements in a particular field, including charity and family. In this way, the magazine wants to show that being the "sexiest" is not about external beauty, but about internal beauty.

As for how his children will react, Dempsey, laughing, assures that they will "just laugh at him and come up with all the reasons why he shouldn't have received this title."
As OBOZ.UA previously reported, in 2022, the same title was awarded to an American film and television actor known to viewers as Captain America, Chris Evans. The movie star admitted that in his school days he could not even think that he would one day be recognized as a sex symbol. Photos of the celebrity can be found in our article.
