 ??? BRADLEY COOPER is the latest Hollywood heartthrob to be named People’s sexiest man alive, the magazine announced Wednesday. ????In choosing Cooper, who has enjoyed box-office success most notably in “The Hangover” films, the magazine said there was more to the actor than his dazzling baby blues and a killer smile. ????The 36-year-old is also a Georgetown University graduate, can cook, rides a motorcycle and is fluent in French. ????Cooper’s humility only added to his appeal, People said. ????“I think it’s really cool that a guy who doesn’t look like a model can have this,” he told the magazine. “I think I’m a decent-looking guy. Sometimes I can look great, and other times I look horrifying.” ????Although he is single, Cooper said he doesn’t see himself as a ladies man. “”I’m a single 36-year-old male,” he said. “If you’re a single man and you happen to be in this business, you’re deemed a player,” he said. ????Cooper was in a relationship with actress Renee Zellweger for two years prior to their split in March. In recent months, rumors have swirled about Bradley’s love life, including reports that he’s dating Jennifer Lopez, something he denies. ????Cooper began his on-screen career in the late 1990s, appearing on an episode of the R-rated HBO series “Sex and the City.” His breakout role came in 2001, when he began playing Will Tippin on the spy series “Alias,” which starred Jennifer Garner. ????He went on to star in the 2009 romantic comedy “He’s Just Not That Into You,” playing an unfaithful husband who tries to sleep with Scarlett Johansson’s character, and also starred on the series “Nip/Tuck” as Aidan Stone. The same year, he starred in the first “Hangover” comedy film and in 2010, had a main part in the movie adaptation of the action series “The A-Team.” ????Aside from “The Words,” due out in 2012, Cooper has several film projects in the works, including the romantic comedy “Outrun” with Kristin Chenoweth and real-life couple Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard and “Paradise Lost,” in which he plays Lucifer. ????Runnersup on People’s annual list this year were Ryan Gosling, Idris Elba, Tim McGraw and Alec Baldwin.
