Ian Somerhalder's 'Sexiest Man Alive' spread

[teamdamon]

As teased here last week, "The Vampire Diaries" star Ian Somerhalder is featured as a part of People Magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive" issue. In it, the popular actor opens up a little bit more about his love for animals, and how this actually ties in to his self-confidence in many ways:

“Human beings love things that are sexy but scary. first thing in the morning, when I’m most relaxed. I have three animals in the bed, and there’s fur everywhere in the sheets. It would be a little weird for me to say that I feel sexy with all my kitties. I would be ‘that guy.’"
Do you want to view more from the shoot? All you have to do is click on over to Just Jared, who has a preview image from the magazine, which goes on sale Friday. (Ryan Reynolds is featured on the cover with the signature title.)

As always, stay tuned for more "Vampire Diaries" news leading up to the next episode airing December 2.

Ian is so hot and the fact that he loves animals makes him even hotter. I saw an interview from when he was in either LA or MS helping animals after the oil spill. I've always thought he was hot but thats what did it for me.

I think Ian is a very attractive man, and that fact that he loves animals is like you said, what made him seem so much more beautiful in my eyes. He's this dark looking sexy man, and then bam he has this soft sensitive side, it's like a girls dream come true Well mine atleast

To bad I'm married with children
