Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey is in the running to be crowned the Sexiest Man Alive this year, as he’s a near-perfect fit to the world’s ideal man, a new study has revealed.
The study claims to gather the physical features and relevant lifestyle attributes of historical Sexiest Man Alive lists to build the world’s, ideal man.
And the latest stats show the dark-haired, brooding man-of-the-moment Jonathan Bailey is a near-perfect fit.
The annual Sexiest Man Alive awards use reader votes to determine the hottest men across key categories, including sexiest smile.
The study looked at physical features held by men awarded the prestigious accolade – including hair colour, hair length, eye colour, facial hair, tattoos, body build and height – as well as lifestyle attributes, such as marital status, job and birthdate.
Predictions now show which trending celebs could be in with a shot of taking home the coveted award – with the hunk actor proving the most likely pick.
The data found that the ideal man has short tousled dark-brown hair and brown eyes, is exactly 6ft in height, has an athletic build, and boasts short brown facial hair or stubble.
Jonathan Bailey has dark brown hair, is in very good shape, and sports a short brown beard when off-screen – making him almost the world’s ideal man, despite being a touch shorter than the most attractive height at just under 6ft (5ft 9”).
Bailey’s facial hair is also a major bonus for the handsome star, as men with a beard were found to be a massive 62% more attractive than those without.
Fans lusted over Bailey after watching him fall into the river while wearing a white dress shirt, sending the clip trending on social media since Season 2 of Bridgerton hit screens back in March.
The engaged star also hit the mark with his marital status as stats show men are more likely to win the award when they’re in a relationship or married.
Fellow Bridgerton star Simone Ashley – who plays Jonathan’s on-screen love interest – is also a near-perfect match to the World’s Sexiest Woman, based on data pulled from historical Maxim lists.
When it comes to other standout Netflix stars who could be in with a shot this year, actors who fit the profile include frequent winner Noah Centineo and Euphoria bad boy Jacob Elordi.
