Hollywood star Hugh Jackman charmed more than ten million Germans after he gently carried a German minister to her seat on a TV talk show.

BILD asked the man voted ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ the question on every girl's lips - what does he find sexy?

“I was shocked at first. My friends made fun of me for it. Can you imagine how Australian men react to such a label? When I think about it, it’s really bizarre.”
