SINGER Adam Levine, the frontman of the Grammy Award-winning rock group Maroon 5 and a judge on the hit NBC singing show “The Voice,” was named People magazine’s sexiest man alive, the magazine announced Tuesday.

    The 34-year-old singer-songwriter, who is engaged to Victoria’s Secrets model Behati Prinsloo, told People magazine he was taken aback by the announcement.

    “As a musician, you have fantasies that you want to win Grammys, but I didn’t really think that this was on the table,” Levine said.

    Levine joins an illustrious list of prior winners of the award including Channing Tatum, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Ryan Reynolds, George Clooney and Matt Damon.

    The singer branched into acting last year with his debut role on the television series “American Horror Story.” He also appears in the 2013 film “Can a Song Save Your Life?” with Keira Knightley and Mark Ruffalo. The movie premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.
