Hugh Jackman: Labeled Sexiest Man Alive of 2008
You’ve seen him in movies like Van Helsing, The Prestige and X-Men and now People Magazine has declared Hugh Jackman the Sexiest Man Alive for 2008.
The married father of two follows in the footsteps of past SMA’s Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Matthew McConaughey and at least one person agrees with the title: his wife.
Here’s a few of the questions he answered in the latest issue of the magazine.
You turned 40 Oct. 12 and now you’re the Sexiest Man Alive. What was your wife’s response?
God bless her, she said, “I could’ve told them that years ago!” And then she said, “Obviously, Brad wasn’t available this year.” And I said, “That was a joke, right?”
Your marriage is a success story.
In my early 20s, I didn’t have a regular girlfriend. I was single and really happy about it. And then when I was 26, I met Deb on [the Australian TV show] Correlli.
She was my leading lady. It was just undeniable. I started planning to propose to her at about three months. We are happy. Deb and my kids have been the best things that have ever happened to me, without a doubt.
How do you keep the passion alive?
It’s easy with my wife. She loves the idea of me coming home in costume because it makes her feel like she’s having an affair in a good way. When we met, I was cast as a prisoner with tattoos and she’d say, “Don’t take your tattoos off tonight!” and I’d be like, “All right!”
But what works best with her is the stockbroker look. She also says, “Do your sexy dance for me,” [an '80s-like, hip-swiveling number] and that works for me.
What part do people like best?
My smile. Lately my pecs. I’m being honest!
What do you wear to bed?
I didn’t wear anything until my daughter was born and we had a night nanny because I was working. I walked out stark naked, and she was reading a book. Now I like boxer briefs.
Wow. Must be a rough job to be his nanny!
