Who's Channing Tatum?

We all know that People Magazine has announced their annual - and much sought after - "Sexiest Man Alive" award.  I was not too excited because I don't know who Channing Tatum is.

Used to be that I was so happy for the recipient because I knew the actors - and how much it meant to them.  Like Harrison Ford, Richard Gere and Sean Connery.

And who can forget a couple of years ago when Matt Damon won.George Clooney and Ben Affect both let us know how he'd campaigned for it night and day.

Seriously, if they're going to pick the sexiest man alive, at least make it somebody I know.  And, by the way, how do they know this person is the sexiest?  What are their criteria?

My favorite People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive was Mark Harmon ('86).  We all know that he's the son of Heisman Trophy winner and coach, Tom Harmon.  Mark's sister, Kristin, was married to Ricky Nelson.  And a bunch of other famous people are in his family.  Mr. Harmon is Hollywood royalty.

Mark's had a long and fairly distinguished acting career.  And his dad would be so proud to know that "Sexiest Man Alive" award helped.

He's coming up on ten years doing NCIS.  And, at 60 years old, he's still sexy.

Who is Channing Tatum?
