Hugh Jackman is the Sexiest Man Alive

At 40, Hugh Jackman has managed to accomplish a well-rounded career. He has starred in blockbuster movies like the “X-Men” installments and “Swordfish,” romantic films such as “Someone Like You” and “Kate & Leopold” and has even lent his voice to cartoon characters in animated films “Happy Feet” and “Flushed Away.” Ever an adventurer, he even produced a musical dramedy last year in which he also had a part but broadcaster CBS canceled the television series, titled “Viva Laughlin,” after only two episodes.

Although fully accomplished professionally, Jackman makes it clear that his personal life comes first and that his wife and children are the most important to him. In a candid interview with People magazine, Jackman confessed his wife of 12 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, changed his life around and that three months into their relationship, he was already thinking about ways to propose to her.
