Former wrestler and “Moana” star becomes only the second person of color named by People magazine as Sexiest Man Alive.

In 1992, 51-year-old Nick Nolte followed up his performances in “The Prince of Tides” and “Cape Fear” with the Sexiest Man Alive title.

In a departure from tradition, the magazine in 1993 named Richard Gere and model Cindy Crawford as Sexiest Couple Alive.

After skipping the franchise in 1994, People returned the following year by naming 31-year-old “Legends of the Fall” star Brad Pitt as Sexiest Man Alive.

Matthew McConaughey was actually in a box office slump (“Two for the Money,” “Sahara”) when he was chosen in 2005.

40-year-old soccer star David Beckham became the first pro athlete chosen in 2015.
