Bob Dylan Voted Sexiest Man Alive
Bob Dylan was voted Sexiest Man Alive by fans, Madhouse Magazine and Popular Mechanics. The staff, writers, and management of Madhouse Magazine, polled over 500,000 subscribers and Bob Dylan aka Robert Zimmerman won by a landslide. Dylan will appear on the cover of the Popular Mechanics special swimsuit edition. Bob made history as the oldest swimsuit cover model ever.
Dylan arrived gleefully at the NYC offices of Madhouse Magazine to accept his award. When questioned by reporters, Dylan responded “I get awards thrown at me every other day, but I ain’t got time for that. It’s usually a bunch of blowhard, stuffed shirts, congratulating themselves for things that nobody cares about. Now Madhouse Magazine is something I can get behind. Being voted Sexiest Man Alive, is a huge honor, and one that I take seriously.”

Dylan reflected on the honor, “When I heard that I was going to be on the cover of Popular Mechanics Swimsuit, I thought, Oh, that’s pretty good, I’m going to be the oldest person I think ever on a cover of Popular Mechanics,” Dylan told the magazine. “And I don’t think about age very much, but I thought that this is kind of historic.”
Bob was photographed in the Dominican Republic by world renowned photographer Hugh Janus. Dylan commented that he liked the picture and admitted to “shaking” before the reveal. “It’s odd to go to an island and then get changed into nine different bathing suits in one day in front of all those people, and it turned out okay,” he said. Dylan said it was a “challenge” to don the cover at his age, but he feels like he met it and called the photo shoot “fun. I still got it. Working out to Richard Simmons, sweating to the oldies really paid off.”
The Sexiest man award comes with great responsibility. Dylan embarks on a yearlong national speaking tour, traveling approximately 20,000 miles per month and changing cities every few days. He will spend the tour addressing various audiences at schools, public events and fundraisers. Bob will promote and increase awareness of his sexiness.
Dylan is also a goodwill ambassador for Madhouse Magazine, raising awareness for the magazines importance in society. Other duties include television appearances, national parades, hometown events and promoting dumb issues.
