"You've given an aging suburban dad the ego-boost of a lifetime," tells Damon of the honor that came as a surprise to him. "My 9-year-old stepdaughter now thinks I'm cool -- well, cooler."
The 37-year-old Bourne Identity star is featured on the cover of People's annual issue that carries a letter from him signed “Matty.”
"Unfortunately, after all those years out on the trail, the meet and greets, the fundraisers, the stump speeches, I've finally come to terms with the fact that this is a mantle I wasn't meant to hold," he says in the letter.
Damon is married to Luciana Bozan, and has a 1-year-old daughter, Isabella, with her.
"Don't get me wrong, though. I was really shocked and happy (Lucy said I actually blushed) when I heard the news. So I can't thank you enough for that."
Damon’s best pals, George Clooney and Brad Pitt, have been on People's ‘Sexist Man Alive’ list twice.
Scottish actor James McAvoy is a new addition to the list. His steamy sex scene with Keira Knightley in 'Atonement' has cemented his status as a Hollywood sex symbol.
'SexyBack' singer Justin Timberlake rounded off the list in fourteenth place, after his relationships with Hollywood beauties Cameron Diaz and Jessica Biel proved his sex appeal.
Last year's winner, George Clooney, didn't make the 2007 list - undoubtedly to the amusement of his 'Ocean's Thirteen' co-stars.
On being crowned Sexiest Man Alive 2006, and becoming a two-time winner like Brad Pitt, George joked: "I felt bad for Matt Damon, because he really wanted it. He campaigned hard for it, but he came up short.
"This one's going to be hard for Brad Pitt since he's been Sexiest Man Alive twice. He's enjoyed that mantle. I'd say 'Sexiest Man Alive' to him and he'd go, 'Two-time.' So that's been taken away. We used to call him Two Time. So Brad's going to be upset."
Last year, Matt revealed he was determined to steal the crown from George.
He said: "I'm going to get a war chest going and save my money. George said I was close this year but I ran out of money for my campaign, which is why he won."
The final list is decided by People editors, after readers send in their suggestions for who they think should be crowned the Sexiest Man Alive.
