People Magazine has once again crowned their Sexiest Man Alive, and this year’s honor is bestowed up actor Paul Rudd.
Known for his roles in Anchorman, Knocked Up, 40 Year Old Virgin, Friends, Ant-Man and more, Michael B. Jordan follows up guys like Channing Tatum, Edris Elba, Michael B. Jordan, and who could forget… country music’s own Blake Shelton.
And the world will never let them forget it.
Last year, Blake got roasted in the ricochet fire while people were congratulating Michael B. Jordan, and now that Paul Rudd has been named People’s Sexiest Man of 2021, Blake Shelton is once again taking a ton of shots in the Twitter crossfire.
People don’t forget…
Paul Rudd must’ve hired Blake Shelton’s publicist.

Paul Rudd isn't ugly, but it's Blake Shelton all over again. Who on People's staff picks the sexiest man alive? There are others more attractive.

Paul Rudd will become Blake Shelton one day, and we’ll all laugh.

Maybe Paul Rudd being picked as sexiest man alive will realign the universe bc we genuinely haven’t been ok since Blake Shelton was picked as sexiest man alive

Not yall coming after Paul Rudd… the same people who were swooning over that pig ass Blake Shelton. Paul Rudd is unproblematic which is sexy.

Sexiest man jumped the shark with Blake Shelton so… Paul Rudd is more acceptable than Blake but still I feel like people(in general) don’t know what the word sexy means anymore.

I like Paul Rudd looks a hell of a lot better than Blake Shelton so there’s that…maybe their definition of sexiest* is different over at people idk

Imagine crowning Blake Shelton Sexiest Man Alive BEFORE Paul Rudd.
— Kandis (@queenkandis) November 10, 2021
OOF…
I’m not sure if Blake is every going to live this one down…
It’ll be 2035, People Magazine will name some unknown actor that’s like 4 years old right now, and folks on Twitter will still be saying, “remember back in 2017 when Blake Shelton won and then the whole world went to shit right after that? I’m still mad about that.”
Mark my words.
Congrats to Paul Rudd though… giving hope to the funny guys everywhere.
Paul Rudd is PEOPLE's 2021 #SexiestManAlive! 🔥 https://t.co/aweOKYwclx pic.twitter.com/PPxEaZo6Ty
