Blake Shelton's 'Sexiest Man Alive' Jacket Is A Middle Finger To The Haters

I was honestly having a bit of trouble coming up with a New Year's resolution, but then it unexpectedly landed on my lap, courtesy of Blake Shelton. The 41-year-old country singer took the stage during the season 13 finale of The Voice wearing a blazer with "Sexiest Man Alive" spelled out in sparkly lettering on the back. And now I officially know that my goal for 2018 is to personify the exact harmony of unabashedly extra and undeniably petty that Blake accomplished during that episode.

But it looks like Blake didn't sit back and sulk in his apparent unsexiness for too long, as he proudly repped his title in shiny, bedazzled lettering during The Voice finale on December 19. Needless to say, fans had some feelings about Blake's ballsy blazer, which they voiced all over Twitter. Some were totally here for his pettiness, with one even calling his outfit choice their "favorite thing to happen this year."

Others weren't too psyched about it, with many piping up to reassert their aversion to People's choice for this year's award.
You ever think about how Blake Shelton was voted the sexiest man alive and just laugh?

Regardless of where you stand on the matter, there's no denying that Blake's move is commendably confident, and that's something we should all aspire to be.
