Who Is The Sexiest Man Alive — Blake Shelton Or Sir Patrick Stewart?

People magazine named Blake Shelton the sexiest man alive, but the Internet was not having it. While there’s no doubt he’s won the title in Gwen Stefani’s eyes, the Internet blew up with numerous people sharing their picks for the popular contest.

A Buzzfeed writer even posted an article with 85 people they thought were sexier than Blake Shelton and said they were disgusted that the honor went to Shelton. They included a picture of Blake Shelton with a big red x through his face.

Some of the names tossed around online that many felt would have been better candidates for the sexiest man alive include Jason Momoa, Jamie Dornan, Zayn Malik, Nathan Fillion, Jesse Williams, and more.

While people spent tie on Twitter debating who should be named the sexiest man alive, things took an interesting turn when former winners Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds weighed in along with Sir Patrick Stewart.

One Twitter user compared People’s Sexiest Man Alive with the presidential election and stated that replacing The Rock with Blake Shelton was like replacing President Barack Obama with President Donald Trump.

Blake Shelton replacing the Rock as the Sexiest Man Alive is the exact equivalent of Donald Trump replacing Barack Obama as president.
