Patrick Dempsey Almost Named Sexiest Man Alive

Hey, #2 isn't so bad, right?

Leading the way for a talented Grey's Anatomy cast as well in several films - and most importantly, as husband to Jillian and father to Talula, Sullivan and Darby - Patrick Dempsey placed second on People magazine's annual Sexiest Man Alive list.

Patrick Dempsey narrowly lost out to Matt Damon, a fairly sexy fellow in his own right. But there's little question who our choice would have been at the Insider...

Patrick Dempsey: Second to none in the minds of Grey's Anatomy fans.

Matt Damon, a first-time father as of this year, remained coy about his win, saying, "You've given an aging suburban dad the ego boost of a lifetime."

The magazine cites Matt Damon's "irresistible sense of humor," "rock-solid family man" and "heart-melting humility" for landing him the sexiest title.

People's top 10 Sexiest Men Alive are, as follows:

  1. Matt Damon
  2. Patrick Dempsey
  3. Ryan Reynolds
  4. Brad Pitt
  5. James McAvoy
  6. Johnny Depp
  7. Dave Annable
  8. Will Smith
  9. Javier Bardem
  10. Shemar Moore

    Well there is No Doubt that he is #1 in my book! Its a shame he didn't get #1 this year even thought there is certainly nothing wrong with #2. It seems that he has been #2 the last two years with last year behind George Clooney and the year before behind Mathew McConahey. Oh well, he is definately the Sexiest Man ALive to Me!
    Don't forget to vote for Patrick on People's Choice Awards for Favorite Male Actor on TV!

  3. rose Says:

    How anyone could pick Matt Damon over PATRICK is mindboggling to me! I don't get that at all! But he came very close and is absolutely the SEXIEST MAN ALIVE for all of us McDreamy fans!

  4. allaboutsloan Says:

    Well at least he's on the list and if you think about it, second place isn't bad at all. He'll most likely be number one next year.

    The sexiest man alive has always been based on someone who's had a huge year(at least that's what the editors at People magazine who are in charged of this yearly list have said) and Matt Damon has had a huge year with The Good Shepard, The Departed, and The Bourne Ultimatum.

  5. Debs Says:

    I´m SO F´ing ANGRY. I mean SERIOUSLY Matt Damon SEXIER then our Paddy i SERIOUSLY DON´T THINK SO. He´s been SERIOUSLY ripped off McDreamy forever. I wonder what Jill thinks.

  6. no way!!!! Says:

    I cannot beleive the writers at the magazine think Matt Damon is sexier that Patrick!!! Come on...... Matt is cute, but sexy?? NO WAY!!!!

  7. greyslover Says:

    Well it's obviously.. Patty is waaay more sexy than Matt Damon, isn't it?? I don't have anything against Matt, but come on.. He's a 'cute boy'...Whil Patrick..Patrick is a sexy man!!

  8. Karen Says:

    Seriously this whole top ten list is really lame. Apparently sexy doesnt mean handsome for some of these folks.

  9. Betty Says:

    Patrick should be number one, followed by Eric Dane and then Kyle Chandler, who are both really sexy too! Greyslover said it best!

  10. sunny214 Says:

    I so love Matty but I have to say that Patrick is more good looking and sexier than Matty.

    A Top Ten List with the most sexiest man alive without George Clooney in it is a complete shame.

  11. nan-evy Says:

    Patrick is so much sexier then Matt. Patrick is seriously hott..............

  12. PD's secret_admirerers Says:

    Ok, well, we hope we spelt admirerers right! Back to the point. Matt Damon is pretty hot, so is Leo Dicaprio and David Beckham, and Pete Wentz, but Pat is the hottest of them all. We have to admit, pretty sexy. I don't know what it is, but I just want to run my fingers through hhis hair so badly! I don't know why! Super sexy though.

  13. PD's secret_admirerers Says:

    Well, I hope I spelled it right again. But, again, back to the point: TOO BAD PAT'S MARRIED!!!

  14. Sam123 Says:

    He totally should have been #1, but he's still super McDreamy to me.

  15. Tiffany Says:

    Man, Pattie is freakin' Hot, i don't like Matt, Pattie is definetly the sexiest man alive and forever!!

  16. mer/derlover19 Says:

    okay, there is no way that patrick should have lost out to matt damon of all people!!!!!!! :( it's totally ridiculous, and i think that the people at people magazine need to have a CT scan or something!!! obviously patrick dempsey is the sexiest man alive and should be honored as such!! anyhow, can't wait to see McDreamy and his sexy on Grey's next week!!:)

    Grey's Rules!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!! :)

    He is sooooooooooooo HOT, He is gorgeous, I use to watch his teen movies and I'm just shocked at how HOT he has become. He is so darn fine as we said in the 80's, but now it's Patrick we are talking about. He is gorgeous. I totally fell in love with him watching the movie Enchanted. His wife is one lucky lady. Patrick you are so Sexy, I can he knows how to handle a woman, You KNOW!!!!!!
    I need a break from the computer ,he's so hot.

  18. marsia Says:

    P.S. They had to give it to Matt , he had a moster blockbuster movie trilogy and that means in Hollywood, politics , he can get what he wants. It was political, anyone can see Patrick is sexier, but he'll get it next year, he just had a number 1 movie this weekend, Enchanted and surely more to come.
