So, if you have not yet heard, People named Blake Shetlton its “Sexiest Man Alive.” I know. Everyone had pretty much the same reaction.
Choosing the decidedly, non-objective, very truly not-sexiest-man-alive Blake Shelton has left us all with a lot of questionsIs this what “Sexiest Man Alive” means in Trump’s America? Do we have the same definition of “sexy”? Is reality just a perception and everyone else’s idea of reality is different from the next person’s?
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
The internet is not happy with this decision, either.

Best option: Blake Shelton resigns as Sexiest Man Alive, creating new vacancy and do over. Gov appoints Idris Elba, schedules new primaries/general. New vacancy = new process.
