people magazine

Krasinksi says the title came as a shock, telling People his reaction was “just immediate blackout, actually. Zero thoughts,” adding, “that's not how I wake up, thinking, ‘Is this the day that I'll be asked to be Sexiest Man Alive?’” The magazine made the announcement online at midnight and, in what’s become tradition, minutes later on television on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. It didn’t take long for keyboard kings and queens to weigh in on the choice and let me tell you, the internet is generally not pleased. Twitter (we still refuse to call it X) is far from a quiet place when it comes to reaction. You could say the reaction has been equivalent to one of Jim Halpert’s trademark “can you believe this shit?” glances directly into the camera in The Office.
