Popular American talk show host Ellen DeGeneres thinks Indian origin British actor Dev Patel should be named the sexiest man alive. He appeared on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ on January 6 to promote his film Lion, and DeGeneres encouraged him to start a campaign for “Sexiest Man Alive”, reports etonline.com.
“Because you look so good, and people are saying you look buff and everything, I had this made for you...” said DeGeneres before presenting the 26-year-old actor with a fake magazine cover of him as People’s annual hot man honouree.
“You can hand this out ... It’ll help your career!” Patel responded: “I’ll give it to my mom, and she’ll put it at the entrance to her house.” “This is very awkward,” the actor added, leading DeGeneres to quip, “You don’t understand Hollywood.”
