Idris Elba has been named People’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive.’Last year country singer Blake Shelton took the title.  He is only the third non-white man to be named by the magazine, along with Denzel Washington and Dwayne Johnson. Elba told People how he reacted to the news. He said: “I was like, ‘Come on, no way. Really?’ Looked in the mirror, I checked myself out. “I was like, ‘Yeah, you are kind of sexy today’. But to be honest, it was just a nice feeling. It was a nice surprise – an ego boost for sure.”
