Harper’s Bazaar released its ’50 Hottest Men of All Time’ list last week; and to say the internet was confused about some of the men on the list, as well as the order in which they were placed, would be a huge understatement!
Prince Harry‘s inclusion on the list was the biggest head-scratcher, as was the fact that he was placed above hunks such as David Beckham, who has topped many a ‘Sexiest Man’ list in his time, and Thor actor Chris Hemsworth.
Prince Harry Comes In At Number 25 On 'Hottest Men Of All Time' List, Beating David Beckham And Chris Hemsworth
Five years after being crowned People's 'Sexiest Dad Alive,' and four years after winning People's 'World's Hottest Royal' title, Prince Harry has come in at number 25 on Harper's Bazaar's 'Hottest Men of All Time' list.
Explaining why the Duke of Sussex, 40, appeared on the list, the pub wrote that "the younger of British princes has long remained one of the most covetable bachelors in the world," adding that his "peak level of hot" was during a Fit and Fed charity event back in 2017, one year before he married Meghan Markle. For what it's worth, Prince William, who many royal fans have gushed over, did not make the list.
The late James Dean took the very top spot, while icons such as Marlon Brando, Cary Grant, and Rock Hudson also appeared above the Duke of Sussex. As did more modern heartthrobs such as George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jared Leto, and Idris Elba.
But it's the people that came below him that many people online took issue with, as David Beckham, Bradley Cooper, Ryan Gosling, Chris Hemsworth, Henry Cavill, and Channing Tatum were all placed below him on the list.
Internet Reactions
"Someone pinch me and wake me up. Whose stupid idea was this to put Prince Harry as the sexiest and beating Bradley Cooper, David Beckham, Ryan Gosling and [expletive] Superman? I mean come on, really I feel like I am taking crazy pills, whoever did this needs their [expletive] eyes checked," slammed one angry person on X, formerly Twitter.
"They need their brains examined!" exclaimed a second, as a third asked, "Oh come on – this a joke?" A few other people wondered if Prince Harry's team paid for the position on the list, with one asking, "Who paid for this and only got 25th?" and another questioning, "I wonder how much money that title cost?"
"I just can't... I can't," wrote another fan in disbelief. "Imagine in Harry's head he thinks he's hotter than David Beckham," wrote another X user. "Beckham beats the ginger, every single time, every day, in every way. Hands down," someone else wrote, as another thought his older brother deserved to be on the list instead.
"Harper's Bazaar, have you not seen Prince Harry's older brother Prince William who will be King one day? Prince William is tall, blonde, blue eyes, looks like his mum Princess Diana. I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone," commented another.
The confused and negative remarks continued over on the Daily Mail's comment section. "This list is a joke and the ginger guy should be on a very different list," criticized one reader, as a second wrote: "Harry's looks have long gone, and so has his reputation."
"He is only on the list because he is a prince, no other reason," speculated a third, as a fourth asked: "25th. In your dreams Meghan. How many times did she vote?" Another reader echoed this, adding: "Meghan must have been voting on the phone non-stop."
"I guess I'll still be laughing tomorrow," quipped another reader. "Who did he pay to get on the list?" someone else asked, as another reader said: "April 1st already?"
