Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt has once again been voted as the sexiest man in the world.

The Ocean's Eleven actor came out on top of New Woman magazine's recent poll. His nearest challenger was Brokeback Mountain star Jake Gyllenhaal but he was some way behind the Mr and Mrs Smith star.

Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando Bloom came in at number three, with Johnny Depp and the lovely Clive Owen and four and five respectively.

Some people thought Brad's popularity would be severely tested by allegedly leaving his beautiful wife Jennifer Anniston for the equally stunning Angelina Jolie. But it seems Brad can do no wrong in the eyes of the British public.

Brad and Angelina are currently in the African country of Namibia expecting their first biological child to join their adopted kids Maddox and Zahara.
