The Australian actor Chris Hemsworth is officially the sexiest man alive in 2014, according to People magazine.
The star of Thor was revealed yesterday as the bearer of the flattering title on Jimmy Kimmel Live, where the audience was allowed to guess who the sexiest man alive is through questions submitted via Skype.
The questions included “Were you fat?” (alluding to Chris Pratt, of course) and “Were you born outside of the USA?” When one audience member asked whether the person in question played a superhero with a hammer, it was clear that it was Hemsworth.
The Aussie rose to prominence in 2011 when he starred in Marvel’s Thor and then reprised the role three more times. The actor is married to Elsa Pataki, with whom he has three children.
Hemsworth shares the cover of People magazine with challengers Idris Elba and Chris Pratt, both Marvel stars. Matthew McConaughey was also in consideration for the title.
