 [!-- dateline --]NEW YORK[!-- /dateline --] -- People magazine has named George Clooney the "sexiest man alive" for the second time.

 The 45-year-old actor is pictured on the cover of People's annual issue, on newsstands Friday. Clooney, who first took the title in 1997, is now tied with his good friend Brad Pitt.

 "This is one that's going to be hard for Brad since he's been `sexiest man alive' twice,'' Clooney tells the magazine. "I'd say `sexiest man alive' to him and he'd go, `two-time.' So that's been taken away.''

 "Brad's been working out a lot,'' he adds. "After Troy, he thought he'd be named it a third time -- pull the hat trick, as we called it. But for me, I'll tell him, `This is my last hurrah.' ''

 People's "sexiest man alive" list began in 1985 with Mel Gibson. Others on the list: Tom Cruise (1990), Pitt (1995 and 2000), Denzel Washington (1996) and Jude Law (2004).

 The magazine also names 12 "men of the year," including Pitt, Jamie Foxx, Patrick Dempsey, Matt Damon, Justin Timberlake and Daniel Craig.

 Clooney won a best supporting actor Oscar this year for his role in Syriana. He will next be seen opposite Cate Blanchett in The Good German, slated for release Dec. 22.

 He tells People that his celebrity dream date is Sophia Loren.

 "Oh my god. I met her in Milan,'' Clooney says. "She's unbelievably beautiful, unbelievably fun.''

Sexy is in the eye of the beholder.

  He's handsome for sure......but I can think of many men who are sexier (even though they may not be as handsome)  Sexy and handsome don't necessarily go hand in hand to me.

I thought he was caught exposing himself in a darkened movie house.  One of those porn movies.  I don't think there would be kids there.  He was only written up in the paper because he was well-known.

Can't recognized Pee Wee? Here's a good old mug shot of him when he was arrested.

   [H1]Pee-wee Herman[/H1] [H2]aka Paul Reubens[/H2]

   Face it, Paul will always be known as Pee-wee.  Following the 1991 arrest, Pee-wee became an unperson. Playhouse reruns were yanked, Pee-wee's star was taken off the Hollywood Walk of Fame (actually this is just urban legend, but consider it repeated here as fact), and his wax likeness in the Los Angeles Movieland Wax Museum melted down for the sake of moral purity.
