Olympic Skier Bella Wright Starts Her Day With Gratitude—and Some Billie Eilish Tunes

Here’s how she gets ready for her first workout of the morning.

If the title “Sexiest Man Alive” could be a four way tie, there’s no doubt the men of New Girl would clinch it. And while actors Max Greenfield (Schmidt), Damon Wayans Jr. (Coach), Jake Johnson (Nick), and Lamorne Morris (Winston) weren’t crowned with any official title, People nonetheless sent the internet’s heart ablaze when it reunited the comedic TV show’s stars for a feature in the 2024 “Sexiest Man Alive” issue. In the spread exclusive to People revealed Tuesday, the foursome is seen posing together for the first time since the beloved sitcom ended in 2018.

The interview between the former New Girl co-stars is popping. Greenfield talks power washers, the group razzes Morris for his recent Emmy win, and there’s even a discussion about the importance of hydration. We’re laughing, we’re lusting. You get it. The chemistry is still there, say the actors, because of how much time they spent together over the years.

The men also had some tongue-in-cheek but insightful answers about what they consider “sexy.”

“Sandwiches,” joked Johnson. “Different condiments. You got mayonnaise, got mustard, you got pickles, you got relish. I love a good cup of chili.”

Wayans, meanwhile, got a little more real. He apparently got the memo that open communication is what makes for true intimacy. Truly, what could be sexier?

“Honesty, transparency, a high libido,” said Wayans. “Kissing, hugging, tugging, loving.”

Morris said he connects with his faith and spirituality—to ultimately become closer in the bedroom. “Honestly, when you’re connected to a higher source, you don’t know what’s going on; all you know is connection,” Morris shared. “Simultaneous completion.”

Prioritizing mutual pleasure is indeed sexy! It’s just one part of a healthy romantic relationship, which sitcom lovers got a recent taste of in the hit Netflix rom-com Nobody Wants This. That show portrayed adults being vulnerable with each other, working through trust issues, and trying to communicate their needs.

The New Girl actors made romantic ineptitude funny in their 2010s sitcom days, but it’s good to see that the actors themselves are hip to what sexiness looks like in the 2020s. Sandwiches included.
