Brad Pitt in Vanity Fair's Most Handsome Man in the World poll

Overall, my favorite things to read about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are – in order – their various humanitarian efforts, their movies (past, present, future), and their family life. Their physical appearance isn’t the most important aspect, and honestly looks are subjective. Some people find certain folks to be drop-dead gorgeous while others scratch their head and wonder what the appeal is.

That being said, I think it’s generally accepted that Brad Pitt is one hot man. Am I right?

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. While I could see he was attractive in his 20s, he didn’t really do much for me. Back then he was very much in a pretty boy phase and that’s not my type. However, unlike a lot of people, Brad keeps getting better with age. The older he gets the more I have to stop, catch my breath, and say whoa.

This won’t change the world – voting won’t help build one more home in New Orleans – and it’s laughable to think that Brad would even care, but it’s still fun to play! Vanity Fair has a new poll out to find the Most Handsome Man in the World. You can vote here for your choice.

A month ago they did one for the most beautiful woman and Angelina Jolie won as Most Beautiful Woman in the World (by a landslide, they said). Now it’s the men’s turn. Right now Brad is in second place. He’s got a very considerable lead over the third place spot (held by the also very drop-dead gorgeous Johnny Depp), but the Twilight fans are out in full force because right now Robert Pattinson is leading by a mile. I’m not going to deny it, Rob is quite easy on the eyes. But think of poor Brad. He already has Angelina ahead of him on the Forbes power list, we can’t let him come in second at Vanity Fair without a fight – think of the merciless teasing that will go on in their kitchen! (I’m kidding of course.)

Still, let’s do Brad Pitt a favor and get over there and vote for him. The Twilight fan base is huge, but with the high number of PittWatch readers, I know we can give old Rob a run for his money. Go vote!
