Matt Damon Rallies Behind Hugh Jackman For Sexiest Man Alive Repeat

Matt Damon may have scored People's Sexiest Man Alive title in 2007, but he has no plans to vie for this year's crown.

In fact, the "Bourne" franchise star told the magazine he is pulling for "X-Men" hunk Hugh Jackman to take the crown again.

"Maybe he can be the first to do it back-to-back," Matt told People.

Matt, who has a host of feature films due out this year including October's "The Informant," for which he packed on the pounds to play the role of whistleblower Mark Whitacre, is interested in rallying behind Hugh.

"I'll start campaigning for that," he said.

One reason for Matt's Sexiest Man support of the handsome Aussie? He doesn't want to see his former "Oceans" franchise co-stars Brad Pitt and George Clooney win their third Sexiest Man Alive titles.

"It would be absolutely intolerable, so, no, I don't want either of those guys to three-peat," he said of his pals.
