People magazine has announced its Sexiest Man Alive for 2023, and it’s none other than Patrick Dempsey, the actor best known for his roles in “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Enchanted.” Dempsey, 57, was revealed as the honoree on Tuesday night’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” where Kimmel had his audience play a “20 questions”-like game to determine the dashing dude’s identity.
Dempsey, who was chosen by voters who cast online ballots over the fall, said he was “completely shocked” to learn of the honor. “I’d completely forgotten about it and never even considered it,” he told People. “It’s nice to have the recognition, and certainly my ego takes a little bump, but it gives me the platform to use it for something positive.”
This is the first time Dempsey has been named People’s Sexiest Man Alive, and he said he’s glad it’s happening at this point in his life. “I’m glad it’s happening at this point in my life,” he said. “I’m in a place where I can appreciate it and enjoy it.”
Kimmel had to drop two big hints before someone finally guessed correctly, but we’ll spare you the details and let you play along. Dempsey joins a long list of Sexiest Man Alive honorees, including John Legend, Idris Elba, and Dwayne Johnson.
