James Rodriguez named People Espanol’s ‘World’s Sexiest Man’

James Rodriguez was always talented. And handsome. And, for the last couple years, rich. But apparently it takes becoming a World Cup star to become sexy.

The Real Madrid and Colombia starlet is now People Espanol's "World's Sexiest Man."

It’s not bad being James.

So what exactly changed in the past year? Well, he was arguably the star of the summer, so that helps. It sent his fame into another stratosphere. He also signed with Real Madrid, who are going to pay him ungodly amounts of money, to go along with the extra fame that goes along with being on the defending Champions League winners.

So to review: James Rodriguez was always good and handsome, but it takes fame and money to truly be sexy. Or at least the sexiest.
