JOHNNY DEPP

From a sexy swashbuckler in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise to quirkier roles like Edward Scissorhands, the 46-year-old star has had women swooning since his days as a teen detective on 21 Jump Street. Yet it’s his devotion to his family that really makes the actor so endearing. “I could sit there all day and do nothing but watch them grow,” he’s said of children Lily-Rose, 10, and Jack, 7. “I’m totally inspired by them.”
RYAN REYNOLDS

They may have sparred onscreen in The Proposal, but costar Sandra Bullock has nothing but admiration for the actor, 33. “Ryan is a really good man. He’s really loyal, very trustworthy, and he can keep a secret,” she says. “And he’s got the sickest mind. His mind is a dark, scary place.”
JAKE GYLLENHAAL

“Jake is the kind of guy who can do a spot-on impression of someone you work with that will make you giggle,” raves Brothers costar Natalie Portman about the 28-year-old. “He plays guitar and has a great voice. Kids and dogs love him. He loves his mom and sister and girlfriend. He’s perfect. Too bad he’s ugly.”
BRADLEY COOPER

The Hangover star, 34, has already won over a fan in his costar Heather Graham. “Obviously he’s very great looking, but he also has a great personality,” she says. “He manages to be manly while still being sensitive. As a woman, he makes you feel very attractive. When you’re around him, he’s always like, ‘I love your dress.’ ”
ROBERT DOWNEY JR.

“Robert has a way of making everyone around him feel very special and comfortable,” Michelle Monaghan, his costar in the upcoming Due Date, raves about the 44-year-old. “Whenever I see him, I walk away smiling. Those beautiful brown eyes may have something to do with it.”
DAVID BECKHAM

Why is the 34-year-old soccer phenom one of the sexiest men alive? Just ask his wife Victoria. “David is a wonderful husband. He is kind and incredibly romantic,” she tells PEOPLE. “He is a brilliant sportsman and an amazing father. He idolizes our three boys, and this is what makes him ‘the sexiest man alive’ to me.”
GILLES MARINI

The married Brothers and Sisters star, 33, admits to indulging in getaways with his buddies when in Sin City. “Let’s be real. My wife doesn’t really enjoy gambling or going out too late,” he says. “[Vegas is a trip] definitely with your buddies. You can let loose.”
THE GLEE GUYS

The show-stopping stars of Glee – Cory Monteith, 27; Matthew Morrison, 31; and Mark Salling, 27 – also hit the Vegas strip for their sexy shoot. While in town, they took advantage of some of the local entertainment, including Holly Madison’s burlesque revue Peepshow. “It was just some beautiful women taking off their clothes,” Morrison says. “Never a bad thing in my book.”
NICK CANNON

The 29-year-old host of America’s Got Talent sure knows how to make the main woman in his life happy. Just ask him the sexiest music to play at home! “A Mariah Carey record, of course,” he says. “We’re talking about Mariah Carey. Of course she loves to hear herself.”
ADAM LAMBERT

Think you have a shot with the American Idol star? You do if you’re an upbeat person. “I love people with good energy,” says Lambert, 27. “It’s even better when you can hook up with one of them.”
