John Legend is PEOPLE Magazine’s sexiest man alive
American R&B crooner John Legend is officially the sexiest man alive in 2019, according to People Magazine.
John Legend is the fifth non-actor to win the title, since Blake Shelton (2017), David Beckham (2015), Adam Levine (2013), and John F. Kennedy Junior (1988).
The 40-year-old, All Of Me songwriter, who is the youngest EGOT winner (a person who has won Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony awards), replaces British actor and DJ Idris Elba as the world’s sexiest man from last year – taking a comedic jab at himself as he basked in the distinction.
