Chris Hemsworth named People’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ for 2014

Chris Hemsworth has joined the illustrious ranks of celebrity men to hold the title of “Sexiest Man Alive,” an annual honor bestowed by People magazine.

As promised, Jimmy Kimmel made the announcement Tuesday night.

“Thank you very much for the trophy. I’m most excited about the ‘alive’ portion of that statement,” Hemsworth told Kimmel. “I’m flattered. Thank you, Jimmy.”

The 31-year-old Thor star said his younger brother, Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth, is taking the news well.

“Liam is good. We’ve been throwing sexy looks back and forth all week. So he’s been a real team player through this.”

Hemsworth told People that he thought it was “pretty funny” he had been chosen.

“I think you’ve bought me a couple of weeks of bragging rights around the house,” Hemsworth added. “I can just say to [wife Elsa Pataky], ‘Now remember, this is what the people think, so I don’t need to do the dishes anymore, I don’t need to change nappies. I’m above that. I’ve made it now.'”
