People Magazine Chooses “Wicked” Star Jonathan Bailey As “Sexiest Man Alive”
English actor Jonathan Bailey, Fiyero in the “Wicked” movies, is this year’s “People” magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive”!
He’s also known as Lord Anthony in “Bridgerton” and said when he got the news of his new title, he was doing Shakespeare’s “Richard II”. “It’s completely absurd,” he laughs. “I mean, I giggle.” He grew up in a small English village as the youngest of four, Bailey caught the acting bug after seeing ‘Oliver!’ and remembers telling his grandmother, “That’s what I want to do.” By 13, he’d already completed three seasons with the Royal Shakespeare Company. His advice to his 15-year-old self? “Trust your instincts because they’ve got your back.”
