JOIN USThe 34-year-old star is stepping into the shoes of 'Pirates Of The Caribbean' star Johnny Depp who won the title last year.
But while the Canadian-born actor may have women around the world over swooning, there is one person who won't be impressed. The 'Green Lantern' star does not expect his title to benefit him at home.
"Now it's going to be, 'Sexiest man, take out the garbage,' that does sound better. This gives my family entre into teasing me for the rest of my life," the 'Proposal' actor told People magazine in an interview.
The couple married in a secret ceremony in 2008 in Canada and his 25-year-old wife of two years has long been considered one of Hollywood's most beautiful women, with her curvaceous creamy-skinned looks and blonde hair.
They began dating shortly after Reynolds split from then fiancee, singer Alanis Morissette.
The actor meanwhile says that he will have to work harder to maintain his buff physique after winning the title.
"My body naturally wants to look like Dick Van Dyke. But when I stop training, I turn into a skin-coloured whisper," he said.Previous winners of the coveted title included Brad Pitt and George Clooney, each on two occasions, and even Mel Gibson.
