While Robert Pattinson is very good looking, we erroneously reported yesterday that the actor was named People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive.

We were mistaken and THG regrets the error. (Although, in our defense, millions of teenage women still believe the Twilight hunk deserves the honor!)

Instead, People has awarded this distinction to Johnny Depp. It's the second time the actor has been cited for his extreme hotness. He joins Brad Pitt and George Clooney as the only two-time winners.

In the article praising Depp's prettiness, the publication writes:

At 46, the father of two still reigns as Hollywood's most irresistible iconoclast; as one-of-a-kind as his beloved 15-year-old boots and as smoldering as his favorite Cuban cigars.

Pattinson does at least get a shout-out in the issue, which hits newsstands on November 20. He receives honorable mention, as do other studs such as Ryan Reynolds and Nick Cannon.

Did Depp earn the title? Who do you think is the sexiest man in the whole wide world?
