Actor Kevin Kline, who recently was seen in the role of 'Bottom the Weaver' in Fox Searchlight's recent film adaption of William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream and who can be seen as 'Artemus Gordon' in the upcoming expected summer blockbuster Wild Wild West (starring Will Smith), has been named Sexiest Man Alive by 'Kevin Kline Online,' an unofficial Internet fan site devoted to the actor.
The woman who is creator and webmaster of the site, said in a statement: "Kevin Kline is the sexiest man alive, and that is all there is to it. I thought it was time someone came forth to declare what is without a doubt the most truthful statement that will ever be uttered in the English language. Or any other for that matter, but English is the only one I know. Sorry."
Neither Mr. Kline nor his wife, actress Phoebe Cates, had any comment regarding the high honor that 'Kevin Kline Online' has bestowed on the actor. However, the webmaster remarked, "I'm sure that had I been in a position to contact them, Phoebe would agree with my accessment in a split second, and Kevin probably would too. I mean how on earth can they deny this ultimate truth: the man is hot, hot, hot! .... Be sure you put in three 'hot's'."
Asked if Phoebe Cates is the sexiest woman alive, the webmaster paused to think a moment and replied, "Well.. that is hard to say. I guess she would have to be one hot mama to be married to the sexiest man alive. So yeah, I guess she just might be. But when it comes to Kevin Kline, I don't have to guess. He is the sexiest man alive, and that is just an indisputable fact."
The webmaster then added, "But if my husband asks, I said that he is the sexiest man alive and that Kevin is only the next sexiest man alive, okay?"
