The Sexiest Man Alive 2008 goes to “triple threat star who can sing, dance and wield a weapon” Australia’s Hugh Jackman!
At 6 ft. 2 in., all scruff and biceps, Jackman looms large in the epic Australia, which he says kept him “dirty 95 percent of the time” and left people stammering, “Oh … my … God,” according to costar Nicole Kidman, who adds, “Women’s jaws drop when Hugh walks into a room.”
Jackman’s wife of 12 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, calls his perfect form “the Body of Doom – but I like what’s inside”: a romantic who sings ballads at home and makes pancakes for Oscar, 8, and Ava, 3. A hard body with a soft center – 2008’s Sexiest Man Alive
Jackman who turned 40 Oct 12 and now announced Sexiest Man Alive, recounting his wife’s response – she said, “I could’ve told them that years ago!” And then she said, “Obviously, Brad wasn’t available this year.” And I said, “That was a joke, right?”
