How Did Johnny Depp out Hugh Jackman to be Crowned Sexiest Man Alive?

Hugh Jackman is out, as of today Johnny Depp is crowned People Magazines 2009 Sexiest Man Alive

Look at him. I don't get it. And it's Johnny Depp's second time to wear the crown (the first time Johnny Depp was crowned Sexiest Man Alive was in 2003).  Hugh Jackman was the 2008 Sexiest Man Alive and certainly hasn't lost any of his pizazz, so how did he lose his crown?  What do you think?

Yes, you're right! Hugh Jackman should have another year!

Mistral says:

Hugh Jackman, no doubt

criss says:

I love love love hugh !! no ofends jhonny is just hugh is dreamy!!

criss says:

hugh ajckman is the most sexy guy ever!!! that body is heavenly!!!!!!

Ventura says:

Jackman is my choice. I have seen both in person. Depp is not very tall he's enough emaciated and doesn't smile ever. Seemed an unsociable person aware to be a Hollywood star. Jackman is tall and has a perfect body. He has a very beautiful face, bright green eyes. He involves with his fans like a friend, smiling at everybody so kind with the people that asked him autographs or photos: to be sexy also means this ....

Karla says:

Hugh, of course! Not only sexy but absolutely perfect

beth says:

definitely Hugh Jackman

Melissa says:

I don't actually find either of them sexy, but I guess that Hugh Jackman is better looking

JustBon-Crochet-Designs says:

This is a tough call...can I take both...I mean vote for both? Okay, Hugh, then ;)

LeanneChesser says:

Rhonda, I have to help you even out the Hugh Jackman side. Way sexier!!

Pukeko says:

I just don't get it. Hugh Jackman is so much sexier.

No way, Monkeybrain! Johnny Depp is the sexiest man alive!

ravenko says:

Johnny Depp all the way

Jade says:

Hugh who?

Johnny Depp hands down. Not only is he the most versatile actor in the world, he is also sexiest man in the world and is a fantastic father to Lily-Rose,11, and Jack, 9.

Vanessa Paradis is one lucky woman.

kate Bland says:

Johnny.....he is the best looking, charismatic, unpretentious, naturally alluring, original and Sexy Man I've seen. From 21 jump street to present.
His talent is astounding, he has so much going on behind his eyes, they cut through you... I love watching his movies, I hope he makes hundreds more, I've never seen a bad one.

Hermionebug says:

Johnny Depp is smoking hot!

peggy says:

oh spare me with hugh. johnny depp is way sexier and smarter and more talented than any other guy out there today. hes the best at everything he does. period.!!!!!!. no one can take that away from him. the others r just jealous they cant be like him and never will.

Stavie says:

Depp IS and WILL BE the SEXYest not only in terms of appearence but in personality as well...Johnny has always something mysterious in his presence,face and personality which undoubtly gives him the crown!!!!Jackman is just a very good looking guy with great body and a lots of testosterone(only as Wolverine though!!!) ohh!!!and r u serious???you put A Depp's picture from his wax doll in Mdame Tissaut's Museum??? You r afraid to see THE REAL truth....

Jenny says:

Duh! Because he's Johnny Depp! There's no other like him!

crosscreations says:

Hugh WHO? Guess I'd better pay attention to who this man IS...since I don't know and you only gave two choice I will pick Depp (but my REAL choice is George Clooney). Shot his last film in my hometown just to be near me...the man WANTS me, ya know. :-)

sandyspider says:

Hugh Jackman is interesting, but I wouldn't put him in this category. Johnny Depp was good looking in 21 Jump Street. He has gotten more scruffy looking over the years. Johnny has more dept to his acting ability. Which makes him sexy in that respect.

MeltedRachel says:

Johnny Depp is made of pure hotness! I'm surprise Hugh Jackman was the 2008 winner. He's hot but kind of in a bland way. I mean Johnny Depp has the kooky thing going on but Hugh is just a nice looking lump of wood IMHO. :p

spirituality says:

Hugh who? Seriously - I had to look at the picture to know who Hugh Jackman is. He's not bad looking, but to me Johny Dep is sexier and his acting is amazing. Though whether he's the sexiest man alive ever... I think Keanu Reeves deserves a shot at that spot too :)

wilddove6 says:

I like Hugh Jackman, but I don't think he's got quite the same ability to develop a believable character as Johnny Depp does.
Sometimes too much "in your face sexy" takes away from the movie experience.
I've literally cried watching some of Johnny Depp's movies...but I can't say the same about Hugh.

Shecky says:

Beth is right. People believe too much, maybe all, of what is sexy is based on looks.

bethd821 says:

Johnny Depp is a more rounded actor than Hugh. Yes, Hugh is a good-looking man, but Johnny has more pizazz!!!!!

Greekgeek says:

I'm not really sure about this sexy business, but Hugh Jackman seems so generic. Johnny Depp does wonderful things with his voice. Of course, I still vote for Patrick Stewart!

_Joan_ says:

I love Johnny Depp's eyes; they go right through me. I agree that Hugh Jackman is more "handsome", but if Johnny looked at me the right way, I would give him anything.

azpoppy says:

I looked at both of their pictures for a few minutes...I think there is a mystery about Johnny Depp that makes him fascinating (in addition to sexy). Jackman is very sexy too, but Depp edges him out. Slightly. Heh.

Mrs_R says:

I fell in love with Johnny Depp on 21 Jump Street - he still gets my vote today - yeah baby!!!

jptanabe says:

Love Johnny Depp! He's so cool.

Laniann says:

Johnny Depp is the Sexiest man alive. Plus he has more going for him than good looks.

    Fun lens but I am and always will be a huge Johnny Depp fan, loved your lens...
  • Hermionebug Feb 17, 2011 @ 9:48 pm | delete
    Is the opening picture of Johnny a wax figure? It doesn't really look like him. Anyways, good page...it really got my emotions in a tizzy!
  • Tipi Aug 3, 2010 @ 11:07 pm | delete
    God, that's one good looking man! I love Johnny's movies, he is a very good actor.
    Fun lens to LOOK at!!! :)

    That Wikipedia pic of Depp ... he actually looks kinda feminine there...yuck! Memories of Michael Jackson. Clooney and Richard Gere get my heart throbbing. 5*s!
  • Pukeko Mar 14, 2010 @ 2:29 pm | delete
    Funny, that's one of my favorite photos of him - I think its his sexiest one on the page.

    So much fun!
    Thanks for the great time!
    And congratulations on your Squid Review!

    Actually either one of them could keep their slippers under my bed anytime. Johnny Depp vs Hugh Jackman - what a great debate! 5*
  • BigGirlBlue Nov 25, 2009 @ 11:06 pm | delete
    I just finished watching the Astronaut's Wife again today and honestly when Depp is in character he is the sexiest man alive. When he's out and about and being himself, not so much.
  • _Joan_ Nov 19, 2009 @ 6:13 pm | delete
    Thank you for tackling this important issue. 5*

    Excellent debate! I happen to love them both so I really couldn't choose. I will give you an angel blessing for this fascinating lens. Great job!

    Cool debate...oh my...I'm drooling...

    This has been very entertaining and educational! Not only do I know who Hugh Jackman is now, I know more about my fellow lensmasters:) While "sexy" is not the word I would use to describe either of these men, I favor Johnny Depp because he can sing and he makes me laugh.

    Great debate - I thnk I need a cold shower now!

    I go with Brad Pitt! Yum!

    Fun lens! Hugh Jackman wins over Johnny Depp, but Shemar Moore (Criminal Minds) is the hottest!
  • Ramkitten Nov 18, 2009 @ 9:33 pm | delete
    Hugh Jackman definitely wouldn't be my first pick, but Johnny Depp? He wouldn't even be in the running on my list. Personally, I think the whole thing is silly, because there are a whole lot of super sexy guys who aren't celebrities. And do they ever consider people in the music industry, or is it always actors? I know some country music men who are FAR sexier than these two. :) In my opinion, of course...
  • rms Nov 18, 2009 @ 6:47 pm | delete
    Wow! I couldn't vote in that last one because besides Johnny Depp, I really really like Brad Pitt AND George Clooney! :)
    But I'll be fair, you can have Hugh!
