'Twilight' star Robert Pattinson is 'Sexiest Man on the Planet'

It might serve as no surprise that when 2,000 British women were polled about who they would vote for the sexiest man alive by Glamour Magazine, it was The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and Remember Me star Robert Pattinson that took the number one spot.

Following Pattinson on Glamour's list are Johnny Depp, Hugh Jackman, David Beckham, Brad Pitt, Zac Efron, George Clooney, Chace Crawford, Justin Timberlake, Colin Firth, Channing Tatum, Wentworth Miller, Ed Westwick, David Tennant, Enrique Iglesias, Jensen Ackles, Colin Farrell, Josh Holloway, Chad Michael Murray, Paul Walker, Alex Pettyfer, Gerard Butler, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Josh Hartnett, Jude Law, Shia LaBeouf, Chris Pine, Christian Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo, Daniel Craig, Ewan McGregor, Matthew McConaughey, Orlando Bloom, Rafael Nadal, Clive Owen, James McAvoy, Leonardo Di Caprio, Milo Ventimiglia, Will Smith, Fernando Torres, Jason Statham, Keanu Reeves, Noel Fielding, Russell Brand, Ryan Reynolds, Tom Welling, Ashton Kutcher, Brandon Flowers, and last, but certainly not least, Cam Gigandet.

Pattinson's entry in the top 50 list is as follows:

1. Robert Pattinson
Age: 23
Single? Yes
See him next: In the much-hyped Twilight sequel New Moon on November 20.
“Kristen [Stewart] and I have a weird connection that translated on screen in Twilight but the hottest actor stuff doesn’t really mean anything. You have a month maybe with all this heat and hype and if you don’t capitalise on it, someone else will.”

This accolade is but one of many that Pattinson has received over the past few months (including Vanity Fair's "Most Handsome Man in the World").

    I'm sorry, but Rob is most definitely NOT the sexiest man on the planet. The only time he's decent-looking is when he's playing Edward...LOL!!! Every member of the wolfpack and MANY other actors are much sexier than Rob will ever be...

    i definitely think rob is worthy of this title. not only is he gorgeous, but his personality adds to his sex appeal. he gets my vote!

    He may be good looking but his rotten attitude makes his looks go right out the door!! If you dont like the attention, get the hell out of hollywood!!!

    I love Edward. To me he is beautiful in every way but he is a fantasy. That's why alot of us love Rob Pattinson and it is justified. He is pretty amazing, especially as an actor and having seen everything he is in, I think alot of the hype is deserved and he should completely capitalise on it. After all these polls mean absoloutley nothing about the talent of these men!!! It's compiled by a load or raging hormoned ladies with fantasies and I am one included! It's all pure fun!! Each to their own. It will most likely be someone else next year, but for now, Rob definitely gets my vote and as for Mr Depp....hell yeah!!! There is plenty of love to go round for all these guys!!

    It's nice that Rob was named, but I feel bad for the guy. From this moment on, he's going to have to be driven around in something akin to the pope mobile for his own safety.

    you have so got to be kidding me!! jonathan rhys meyers didn't make it in the top ten? he should at least be ahead of colin farrell! rob pattz is not even sexy, i mean he was ok in harry potter but now he looks like the grossest thing that walked on the face of the earth and his acting sucks!!!

    I would love to see Amanda focus on the Twilight books, movies and characters ... a little less on the hyped careers of the actors playing our favorite characters. RPatz while in Twi character - GREAT ... RPatz outside of Twi ... not so interesting. My 2 cents.

    Jensen Ross Ackles, aka Dean Winchester, is the sexiest man alive. I know, who is Jensen Ackles? Watch Supernatural on the CW on Thursday nights and you will be educated on the epic, alpha hotness of Jensen.
    You also will see his brother Sam, played by Jared Padalecki. He is hotter than Jensen, some people say.
    Two major hotties on one show!
    R.Patz is cute. Jensen is blazing.

    He is definitely a sexy man...just NOT when he is in Edward makeup. Real life, however...well, that's a different matter. I love a guy who isn't afraid to be who and how he is, especially with all of the Hollywood pressures.

    I think Rob's pretty hot. But in saying that I think his personality goes a long way too. He seems really charming and that can sometimes push someone higher in the 'hotness' stakes than their looks would. Don't get me wrong, I think RP is eye candy as well. Jensen and Jared are also drool worthy - probably for the same reason, they're pretty good looking and they have the charm and charisma to back it up. All three are also really down to earth which is a credit to them all. So yum, yum to RP, JA & JP :D

    I think i threw up a little in my mouth. I like Rob P but I am so sick of hearing about Twilight. The books are great the 1st movie sucked. The 2nd I hope to god is better but am holding out little hope after seeing the trailer. Also another guy I wish would stop showing up on these sexy polls is Zack Upchuck Efron. The guy can't act, can't dance and has a boring singing voice and is acts like rich little self important butthead.

    Also on that list apparently to be the sexiest man you must be white. I counted maybe 4 guys out of 50 that weren't white that's a little sick and I'm a white female. It needed a few more men of color.

    No Jared Padalecki? I suffer through Supernatural only because of him.

    I want more of that man, now, because he has something of an animal sexiness that just leaves me breathless.

    You didn't see his hot scenes on Supernatural, did you?

    I agree with April I think some girls think Rob is Edward. Edward is one hot,sexy vampire! Rob is cute and nice looking but sexiest man on the planet, sorry. I just don't look at him and say wow he is sexy. He looks like a regular guy to me. A regular guy with a british accent,money,a great job and music talents, ok that's hot. A billboard can be sexy but you gotta have something in addition to looks to be hot.

    Since this is a column about Twilight, I wonder why people who do not like the books or movies are reading and commenting.
    As for Robert, he clearly doesn't think of himself as sexy. This makes him more sexy! He's hot because he's handsome, has an actual brain, and isn't a macho lothario. But that's just my opinion! All the guys on their list are hot.

    Come on folks,i know this is a comment section,you have your own opion,but if you don't have anything good to say, don't say it.I think Rob is one of the sexest men alive, whether he is Rob or Edward.i am totaly a Edward fan, can't get enough.Next to Rob the sexest man would be Matthew McConaughey. Just my opion.
