Channing Tatum
Tatum got his start as an exotic dancer, with his experiences serving as inspiration for Magic Mike.
CHANNING TATUM: MAGIC MIKE
This one won't surprise you: Tatum's turn as a stripper provided audiences with plenty of skin shots. Though he never got fully naked, the number of times Tatum stripped down in both Magic Mike and Magic Mike XXL more than made up for it.

Matt Damon
Damon tends to give off a wholesome vibe, but every now and then our 2007 Sexiest Man Alive surprises us!

Once the world's most eligible bachelor, now a married father to twins, Clooney has always been the definition of a silver fox. He ages like fine wine.

The late actor was as handsome as can be.

After four Mission Impossible movies, Tom Cruise has still got it.
Tom Cruise
