Hollywood star Brad Pitt himself is a two-time awardee of PEOPLE’s “Sexiest Man Alive”. Although, he acknowledges that he is not the only handsome man in Hollywood. In an interview years back, the actor shared who he believes are the most handsome men in the world, past and present.
The Bullet Train star joked that he had to pick his Ocean’s co-star and close friend, George Clooney, as the hottest male on the planet at present. On the other hand, Clooney also made it clear how much he loves Pitt, so it’s good to see Pitt reciprocate it.

Speaking about Clooney, he quipped: “If I was gonna name someone present, well I gotta name that George Clooney f***** because why not?”
