John Krasinski has been crowned PEOPLE’s 2024 Sexiest Man Alive — with some help from Stephen Colbert!
The big reveal happened on the Tuesday, Nov. 12 episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, where the host kicked off the segment by throwing it back to two previous recipients.

After announcing Krasinski, 45, as this year’s champ, Colbert wished “a sexy congrats to the very sexy John Krasexski.”

What followed was a hilarious…
