The 2024 Sexiest Man Alive has been revealed

Actor John Krasinski was announced as PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive on Tuesday, November 12 (Wednesday, November 13 in South Africa).

The announcement was made on 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert', where the show's host, Stephen Colbert, also announced the previous two recipients of the Sexiest Man Alive title.

"In recent years, I have had the tremendous honour of announcing Paul Rudd and Chris Evans for their terms as PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive," said Colbert.

"So it's safe to say that no man can become the Sexiest until he passes through these lips."

Colbert then gave "a sexy congrats to the very sexy John Krasinski".

After announcing Krasinski as the Sexiest Man Alive, the 45-year-old popped out from behind the stage to accept his new title.

The 'Quiet Place' actor later revealed that he had made an instructional video, '6 Simple Steps To Sexiness', which also featured Colbert.

The 80s-themed infomercial saw Krasinski teach Colbert how to become PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive.

PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive 2022, Chris Evans, made a cameo in the video.

In Krasinski's issue of PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive, he had an "immediate blackout" and "zero thoughts" about becoming the Sexiest Man Alive.

"Other than maybe I'm being punked," he added. "That's not how I wake up, thinking, ‘Is this the day that I'll be asked to be Sexiest Man Alive?’ And yet, it was the day you guys did it. You guys have really raised the bar for me.”
