Hugh Jackman who has been a former Sexiest Man Alive congratulated this year’s winner, John Legend.
The 51-year-old actor took to Instagram and shared a post and praised John while teasing another Sexiest Man Alive, Ryan Reynolds.
Jackman wrote: ”Dear John. Massive congrats on joining this very very prestigious group,”
”99 percent of the time, PEOPLE Magazine get[s] it right. Such as Blake [Shelton], [Dwayne Johnson], etc … But a word of caution. There is the 1 percent. Exhibit A. It’s important that you fall in with the right crowd. Enjoy your reign. Love Hugh.”
Jackman accidentally releases his Sexiest Man Alive cover in front of Reynolds, 43 in the Instagram clip. ”I have an issue somewhere, I have a few of yours,” Reynolds says in the video. ”Usually I cut the eyes out or the mouth, but that’s just me, that’s how I roll.”
Jackman bagged the title of Sexiest Man Alive in 2008 while Ryan was chosen for the same in 2010. John was announced as the winner of PEOPLE’s 2019 honor on Tuesday night during The Voice.
John’s Voice colleagues Kelly Clarkson, Gwen Stefani and Shelton also shared the news with the world and revealed PEOPLE’s new Sexiest Man Alive cover on the competition show.
