It's time to crown the Sexiest Man Alive 2009.
I know, I know...it's a hard job. But someone's got to do it. And once again, Julie James and I have decided that before
People magazine gets their say, you should get yours. So we've joined forces to celebrate the fact that:
(a) our books have, um, almost the exact same title, and more importantly,
(b) the announcement of
People’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2009 is just days away.
(And hey–it’s a good excuse to look at pictures of some really attractive men.)
To get you in the mood for the crowning of the new Sexiest Man Alive 2009, Julie and I are teaming up to give away free copies of our books. And if you haven’t read
Just the Sexiest Man Alive by Julie James, you’ll want to rectify that situation immediately.
So here’s the contest. . . who do you think will be
People’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2009? Here are some of our contenders, but feel free to nominate anyone you want:
Gerard Butler.
Seriously,
People, don’t you think the man is due?
Jon Hamm
aka The Hot Guy from Mad Men. Gotta love a man who looks great in a suit. And out of it.
Ryan Reynolds.
I see six reasons to adore him. They're called his abs.
Will Smith.
Is there anything sexier on a man than a great smile?
And those arms aren’t bad either…
Johnny Depp
...the Bad Boy. This man can have gold teeth and look as though he hasn’t showered for days, and he still manages to be sexy.
These are a few ideas, but feel free to nominate your own choice. Who do you think
People will pick as the 2009 Sexiest Man Alive? Cast your vote by leaving a comment below before 10pm EST on Sunday, November 15th. (And remember– you can vote for anyone, not just the five guys above.) Five randomly chosen people with the correct answer will win a signed copy of my book,
Sexiest Man Alive.
Then, head over
Julie's blog and follow the instructions there to enter to win a signed copy of Julie's book,
Just the Sexiest Man Alive.
A couple of provisos (What can I say? Julie's a lawyer):
This poll is in no way affiliated with
People–it’s just for fun and free books!
Should
People announce their Sexiest Man Alive 2009 before 10pm CST on November 15th, the contest is considered over as of the time of the announcement, and no votes posted after that will be entered in the contest.
In the event that no one correctly picks the 2009 Sexiest Man Alive, or if less than 5 people do so, the remaining signed copies of
Sexiest Man Alive will be awarded to randomly chosen commenters.
Happy voting! Make sure you consider very, very carefully before you vote. In fact, I think you should look at the canidates long and hard....
Comments
Gerard Butler gives thanks every morning that Dean only exists inside the TV. ;-)
Or Johnny Depp. :)
But I'm going with BRADLEY COOPER!!!!
I think it will be Gerald Butler… But I don’t have a real favorite this year, but I do love Chase Crawford!!!
So many to choose from and only one will be chosen. Ahhhh, let's see? Jon Hamm? God! He's pretty sexy! Hmmmm.....Johnny Depp? Have ALWAYS thought he was hot.
Okay.....time to choose. My FINAL answer.....JOHNNY DEPP! Without a doubt!
NOW, let's see who People chooses!
Your book looks pretty amazing too. I think it will be Gerard Butler or Ryan Reynolds.
If I had to pick out of the modeling world... Julian Fantechi, Leighton Stultz, Paul Handschke, and Jed Hill.
Jon Hamm. But vampire boy will probably be up there. I think he's too young to be the sexiest man.
Carol L.
Amy S.
Does this eliminate anyone? Dunno. Maybe Depp?
Thanks so much for playing, everyone.
