Which Former Footballer Was Just Named Sexiest Man Alive?

David Beckham, formerly known as a pretty good English footballer, is now mostly known for being really good looking. And now he's even more known for that.

Beckham was named People Magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive," to the surprise of approximately no one. Except for maybe him. Like Derek Zoolander, he evidently feels "there's more to life than being really really, really, ridiculously good-looking."

"I never feel that I'm an attractive, sexy person," Beckham told the magazine.

"I mean I like to wear nice clothes and nice suits and look and feel good, but I don't ever think of myself that way."

Beckham always seems like a nice guy in interviews, so we're happy for him.

Beckham's win was revealed, hilariously, by Jimmy Kimmel. 

David Beckham Sexiest Man Alive Reveal

Here's how the segment would have gone in our minds:

Audience question: "Did you get red-carded in the 1998 World Cup against Argentina for kicking Diego Simeone, therefore submarining any and all chances England had of advancing?"

Beckham: "I was defending the Falklands!"

This and many other reasons exemplify why we don't run a late-night talk show.

In a related story, Zlatan Ibrahimovic was named the Tall Swedish Strikers Who Play For PSG Magazine* "Sexiest Man There Is, Has Ever Been And Ever Will Be." So good for him.

*It has come to our attention there is no such magazine. We apologize.
