Jonathan Bailey is the first gay man to be named People's Sexiest Man Alive.
“It’s a huge honor,” actor Jonathan Bailey told the magazine. “Obviously, I’m incredibly flattered. And it’s completely absurd,”
Composer Stephen Sondheim once reacted to Bailey with admiration,
"literally stopped in his tracks, closed his eyes, put his hand on his chest and said, 'Be still my beating heart.'"
Bailey rose to fame with the Netflix series Bridgerton and earned top billing in Jurassic World: Rebirth. He also starred in the musical hit Wicked as Prince Fiyero.
