Michael B Jordan
People magazine has named 'Black Panther' actor Michael B Jordan as the Sexiest Man Alive of 2020 in its annual list. Jordan's name was revealed on Tuesday's episode of 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!'. Michael came out dressed in a hazmat suit, revealed his identity after viewers and Kimmel himself took guesses at home.
The actor joked that the title came with 'unreasonable' expectations. "I think the expectation now is... it's a little unreasonable. Just a little bit. But it's a cool title to have."
Before the announcement was made on Tuesday night, the previous year's winner, musician John Legend shared names of who would likely succeed him and said to People magazine, ""I've appreciated the whole experience and I've been trying to have a lot of fun with it, but I'm so ready to relinquish this title."
Other prominent celebrities who have held the title in the past include Dwayne Johnson., Chris Hemsworth, David Beckham and Idris Elba.
