Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine is rumored to be this year’s pick as People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive.

He is engaged to a Victoria’s Secret model and he’s conventionally handsome, but his somewhat geeky voice hints at some deep, dark nerdiness in his past. Chicks dig that though, right? According to the Hollywood Reporter, the judge on “The Voice” has been dodging questions about the honor.

The singer has quietly been building an empire while you weren’t looking, with acting appearances and even a fashion and fragrance line. People seems to be slipping, though; let’s face it, the last two “sexiest” men were tepid hotties (warmies?) Ryan Reynolds and Bradley Cooper.Adam LevineFeaturesGossipMaroon 5
