People magazine has placed John Cho on their annual list of ‘Sexiest Men Alive’ for 2009. While he didn’t get picked as THE sexiest man alive, which went to Johnny Depp, Cho is the only Asian on the list. It’s cool that John Cho made the list and he certainly does deserve a spot. He not only co-starred as the butt kicking helmsman Hikaru Sulu in STAR TREK, which was one of the biggest films of the summer, he’s also one of the leads on a hit prime time network television show ABC’s FlashForward.
This is what People had to say about John Cho,
He’s gone from stoner hero in the Harold and Kumar movies to hot FBI agent in FlashForward – a role that comes with a sexy walk “if you’re carrying a real gun. When it’s on your hip, you lead differently; your hands go to different places,” says Cho, 37.
I guess you can call this that little baby step in deconstructing the “asexual” Asian male stereotype by having an actual real life Asian male be considered sexy and attractive in a mainstream American magazine. Not unprecedented, but still a good sign that things are changing just a tiny bit for the better.
So congrats to John Cho for being one sexy human being!
