For nearly four decades, People magazine has declared one male celebrity the “Sexiest Man Alive” with its annual, highly-anticipated issue. On 7 November, the publication announced the 2023 title holder was none other than Patrick Dempsey.
This year, the announcement was made during an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! The talk show host introduced Dempsey as one of the “founding members of the handsome men’s club, going all the way back to 2010” when the actor starred in his breakout role as dreamy neurosurgeon, Derek Shepherd, on Grey’s Anatomy.
