Move over Hugh Jackman. Johnny Depp was named People Magazine's 2009 "Sexiest Man Alive" on Wednesday, nabbing the magazine's much sought-after annual honor for the second time. (Depp's first win was in 2003.) Though the number of double-winners is limited to a small handful that includes Brad Pitt, George Clooney, and Richard Gere, it is unsurprising that the 46-year-old has been ushered into the elite club given his ability to stay fresh and relevant for decades through a variety of quirky, quality roles from Edward Scissorhands to Captain Jack Sparrow. Ryan Reynolds, Robert Pattinson and Jake Gyllenhaal were among the 15 dreamboats honored by People in this year's awards.
