John Krasinski Crowned People’s Sexiest Man Alive 2024

John Krasinski was named PEOPLE’s 2024 Sexiest Man Alive last night by Stephen Colbert on The Late Show. “In recent years I have had the tremendous honor of announcing Paul Rudd and Chris Evans for their terms as PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive,” the host said. “So it’s safe to say that no man can become the Sexiest until he passes through these lips.” Krasinski then appeared in a stylish suit to accept the honor. The segment also featured a funny ’80s-themed infomercial on “6 Simple Steps to Sexiness,” with a cameo from previous titleholder Chris Evans. In the new issue of PEOPLE, Krasinski joked that he experienced an “immediate blackout” and “zero thoughts” upon learning about the honor. “Other than maybe I’m being punked,” he added
