People Magazine have released their 2010 Sexiest Men Alive list and the number 1 man for them this year is Ryan Reynolds. Obviously they forgot about me. Here is a preview of their list….
Ryan Reynolds
He’s Canadian (and proud of it!), he can make “a mean omelette” and his eight-pack abs have caused millions to swoon. But what makes PEOPLE’s 25th anniversary Sexiest Man honoree so very special? Perhaps his self-deprecating humor. “You just have to go with the flow,” Reynolds, 34, says of his new title. “This gives my family entrée into teasing me for the rest of my life.”
Jon Hamm
Tall, dark, handsome … and funny? Mad Men’s brooding leading man, 39, has shown a knack for comedy, from host of Saturday Night Live to Tina Fey’s recurring love interest on 30 Rock. “He can be so serious and so funny at the same time,” says Fey. “He’s just great at everything.”
Kellan Lutz
This former model knows how to work every camera angle, from showing off his otherworldly body in Twilight to heating up underwear sales as Calvin Klein’s spokesmodel. The secret to the 25-year-old’s sexy six-pack? “I cut back on my candy intake, swim a lot and try to drink as much water as I can,” says Lutz. “That’s the best way to cut up.”
Drake
He’s come a long way since Degrassi: The Next Generation. These days the former actor, 24, is best known for his chart-topping hits like “Find Your Love,” off his debut album Thank Me Later. And while the single artist has yet to find love, he knows what he likes, telling PEOPLE, “I find it sexy when women play instruments or knit.”
Matthew Morrison
Mr. Shue, is that you? Glee’s song-and-dance man showed what he’s really made of in a revealing Vogue photo shoot in June. So what does the former Broadway star, 32, consider to be his sexiest trait? “I have those muscle lines right over my hips from my dancing days,” Morrison told InStyle. “I call them my dancing lines.”
Jon Bon Jovi
He reigned as a big-haired heartthrob in the ’80s, but Jon Bon Jovi, 48, tells PEOPLE, “The cliché of the rock star was never me.” Instead, the singer, who’s been married for 21 years and is the father of four, counts his greatest achievements in his music and his Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation. Another point of pride? “I’ve never had Botox,” he says.
Joe Manganiello
A self-described “ugly duckling,” Manganiello, 34, has physically transformed into a hunky werewolf on True Blood thanks to his six-days-a-week, twice-daily workouts. But it’s not about vanity: “I’m playing a supernaturally strong character; I need to look that way,” Manganiello tells PEOPLE.
Robert Downey Jr.
“Robert has a way of making everyone around him feel very special and comfortable,” Michelle Monaghan, his costar in Due Date, raves about the 44-year-old. “Whenever I see him, I walk away smiling. Those beautiful brown eyes may have something to do with it.”
Jesse Williams
Before he had hearts pumping on Grey’s Anatomy, Williams, 30, taught high school English and African American studies in Philadelphia. But he’s not all brains, no brawn: “I like to be physical,” the actor, who stays in shape with soccer, basketball and flag football, tells PEOPLE.
Justin Timberlake
He’s proved he can bring sexy back to music, now Justin Timberlake is showing he can deliver the goods on the big screen as well. “I know what I want to be,” the Social Network star, 29, told Entertainment Weekly, “and that’s an artist.
Vin Diesel
Fast & Furious star Vin Diesel, 43, knows something about getting pulses racing. No wonder he blew away the competition in PEOPLE’s first-ever Sexiest Man Alive on Facebook campaign. The actor’s response to the honor? “I am blushing … for real … Grrr!”
Jake Gyllenhaal
It’s been a revealing year for the actor, who memorably showed off his bulked-up chest in Prince of Persia and strips down for Love and Other Drugs. “I think a true leading man has both strength and vulnerability,” says Gyllenhaal, 29.
Like I said, they obviously forgot about me but it’s fine they can get me next year and I definitely have a man crush on most of these guys.

I think Forbes are trying to send me into a severe depression or something, just last week they released their annual Hollywood’s Top-Earning Actresses but now they are releasing their Top-Earning Musicians of the year and yet again it makes me want to cry myself to sleep from jealousy:
1. Madonna
$110 million
Thanks to her “Sticky & Sweet Tour,” the top-grossing international and domestic tour of 2008 according to Pollstar, Madonna out earned the rest of her peers. She also released her 11th studio album, Hard Candy, which debuted at No.1 in over 30 countries. In the U.S., the album sold 100,000 copies on the first day of release. The Material Girl also endorses Louis Vuitton.
2. Celine Dion
$100 million
Returning to the touring stage after three years on the Las Vegas circuit was a boon to Dion’s bottom line. The Canadian singer was promoting the 2007 release of Taking Chances, her first studio album in English since 2003. The tour sold out in the U.S. and Canada, becoming the second top-grossing tour of 2008 with gross earnings of $237 million. Dion also released an English greatest-hits collection, My Love: Essential Collection, and a sixth perfume to her fragrance collection.
3. Beyonce
$87 million
In the last year, Queen B dropped a double album, starred in two films, performed at both the Oscars and a presidential Inaugural Ball and embarked on what is expected to be, at minimum, a 110-date international tour. She also expanded a fashion collection that includes casual and formal lines, as well as jewelry and eyeglasses, and added sponsors Nintendo, Crystal Geyser and General Mills to a roster of endorsers already including L’Oréal, Giorgio Armani and Samantha Thavasa handbags
4. Bruce Springsteen
$70 million
Along with the E Street Band, Springsteen’s tour grossed $166 million in 2008 to rank fourth among the top-grossing international tours of the year. The New Jersey crooner enjoyed a year in the spotlight, as his support of President Barack Obama, his Golden Globe win for his song on The Wrestler soundtrack and his NFL Super Bowl halftime performance kept him in the news.
5. Kenny Chesney
$65 million
Chesney, the continued top-grossing country act on tour, was the genre’s only star to make the top-10 international concert roster in 2008, grossing $72 million and selling over 1 million tickets. He also released Lucky Old Sun last October. Chesney was featured along with Jon Bon Jovi and Eric Clapton in Mastercard’s Roots of Rock sweepstakes and has endorsement deals with Cruzan Rum and Corona
6. Rascal Flatts
$60 million
The boys from Ohio have found a cozy niche for themselves with crossover pop/country hits and a young fan base. The group grossed $56 million on the road last year, but buoyed their earnings with lucrative endorsement deals with JCPenney and Hershey’s. Their latest album, Unstoppable, released in April, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
7. Coldplay
$60 million
The British band Coldplay grossed $72 million from international touring in 2008. Their June 2008 release Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends became the most-downloaded album of all time, selling 354,000 digital copies in the first two weeks of its release. The group won three Grammys in February, including Best Rock Album.
8. AC/DC
$60 million
The Aussie rock band fronted by aging schoolboy Angus Young tied for No. 5 on this year’s list of top earners thanks to their seemingly relentless popularity. Their fall 2008 effort, Black Ice, was the band’s first album in eight years. Sales of Ice combined with international catalog sales made AC/DC the No. 1 catalog artist of 2008. As well, their domestic tour grossed $38 million in 2008
9. Eagles
$55 million
It was a bittersweet year for fans of the Eagles. The group released their first studio album since 1979, though according to Don Henley it will likely be their last collective effort. Long Road Out of Eden was sold exclusively through the band’s Web site, Sam’s Club and Wal-mart for the first year of its release, though it still managed to sell 700,000 copies in the first week. Their accompanying tour began last March at London’s O2 Arena, eventually grossing $87 million in 2008.
10. Toby Keith
$52 million
A consistent name among musical top earners, Toby Keith has continued to expand his brand. He grossed $31 million on tour in 2008, and That Don’t Make Me a Bad Guy, which has since sold over 500,000 copies. He also sees income from an endorsement deal with Ford, an eponymous chain of restaurants and as a prolific songwriter.
11. Bon Jovi
$50 million
The international tour to support Bon Jovi’s 2007 album Lost Highway grossed $176 million in 2008, ranking at No. 3 in Pollstar’s list of top worldwide tours and second only to Madonna based on the number of tickets sold. A documentary of the tour, When We Were Beautiful, was screened at the Tribeca Film Festival in April. A book of the same title is slated to hit bookstores this fall.
12. Dave Matthews Band
$45 million
One of the most prolific touring acts of the last decade–earning $47 million on the road last year–Dave Matthews Band is now drumming up buzz for Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King, its first album in four years. The band’s saxophonist, LeRoi Moore, died last August from complications related to an ATV accident. The die-hard DMB fan base continues to bolster their bottom line, thanks to annual dues of the popular fan club, Warehouse, and merchandise sales.

The final note of Hillary Rodham Clinton‘s presidential campaign may very well be sung by Jon Bon Jovi.
The musician is performing at a fundraiser for the former presidential candidate as she tries to close out her campaign debt, which stood at $6.3 million as of last month.
The Jan. 15 performance at Manhattan’s Town Hall is being billed as “a final evening in support of Hillary Clinton for President Debt Relief.” Ticket prices range from $75 to $1,000.
The former first lady and New York senator has been working to pay down her debt to clear the way for confirmation as President-elect Barack Obama’s secretary of state. Federal ethics rules prohibit Cabinet officials from actively soliciting campaign contributions.
Clinton wrote off $13.1 million in personal loans to the campaign.
