Sexiest men alive

Last Tuesday, the nation elected President Barack Obama to another four years in the Oval Office. While many celebrated, others were upset that GOP candidate Mitt Romney didn’t unseat the president.

However, there’s one election I think we ladies can all appreciate; it’s time for the 2012 edition of People’s Sexiest Men Alive. Since CNN and FOX News don’t have their best political analysts on the case to predict who the top contenders will be, I’ll let you in on my top five picks to hold you over until the official list is released tomorrow.

Ryan Gosling

“Hey girl. If you’re a bird, then I’m a bird.” Why would this sexy man not be at the top of my list? This charming Canadian actor loves dogs and has a funny side, not to mention those heart-melting blue eyes. Not only is he incredibly good-looking, but he’s also incredibly talented. We’ve all seen Gosling’s memorable role as Noah in “The Notebook.” He’s also been in other films, such as “Blue Valentine,” “The Ides of March” and “Drive.” He also has a musical side. Check out his musical prowess on his band’s self-titled freshman album “Dead Man’s Bones.” His newest movie “Gangster Squad” will be coming to theaters in 2013, and you know you’re going to be there. Have you seen that man in a suit?

Channing Tatum

After his latest role as Magic Mike, Channing Tatum is a shoe-in for one of the top slots for Sexiest Man Alive. With abs like his, it’s a spot well-deserved. I certainly wouldn’t mind taking a trip to Xquisite to see Tatum bust a move. While he isn’t the best actor in the world, he is charming and comes across as a very likable character. Unfortunately, this hottie is taken by his “Step Up” co-star Jenna Dewan-Tatum. They are easily one of the most beautiful couples I have ever seen and are going to have some good-looking babies.

Adam Levine

Maroon 5 front man and “The Voice” coach Adam Levine has a beautiful voice and a beautiful face to match. He recently guest-starred on “American Horror Story” as half of a honeymooning couple (his wife in the show is actually Tatum’s wife, Jenna) who meets an unfortunate fate while exploring an abandoned mental hospital. Even if you’re not a fan of the horror genre, Levine makes the show worth a watch.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt

This cutie has grown in popularity since his role on the television series “3rd Rock from the Sun” and his co-starring role in the indie flick “500 Days of Summer.” From his adorable dimples to his boyish good looks, JGL should not be overlooked for one of the top spots on the list of Sexiest Men Alive. Catch him in Steven Spielberg’s biopic “Lincoln,” in theaters this Friday. He’s a “The Student Printz” staff favorite.

Cristiano Ronaldo

While I’m not the biggest sports fan, Cristiano Ronaldo makes me want to get up and cheer.  This soccer star plays forward for Real Madrid and leads the Portuguese national team. Ronaldo is the top paid soccer player in the world and boasts over three million Twitter followers. I’m pretty sure it’s because of those killer abs showcased in the ads for his line of Armani underwear, or maybe it’s his fancy footwork and scoring records. I’m banking on the underwear.
