The UK’s Prince William won the title of the "world's hottest bald man" for the third consecutive year amid the crown prince’s most difficult period in his life.
Earlier this month, Prince William said the past year had been the hardest of his life. His wife Kate Middleton and his father, King Charles III, were both diagnosed with cancer at the same time, leaving William to shoulder the responsibilities of the monarchy while also being there for his family.
Now, William can take a moment to give himself a pat on the back — not only for handling everything wonderfully but also because he has claimed the coveted title of "world's hottest bald man." Admittedly, the title suits him now more than ever, especially since he recently started growing a beard.
In second place was actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, closely followed by former basketball player Shaquille O’Neal.
"Bald men have stolen the hearts of millions of people around the world, from Stanley Tucci to Zinedine Zidane to John Travolta," wrote a study team at Reboot, a search marketing agency. "We’ve conducted scientific research and crunched the numbers to officially crown the Sexiest Bald Man for 2024.”

“If our study is anything to go by, he still has sex appeal today. With 16,800 annual searches for ‘Prince William’ followed by ‘shirtless’ or ‘naked’ on Google, it’s clear the public agrees,” they added. " The Prince of Wales’s smooth, shiny scalp earns him 74% for luminance, while his face also scores an equally impressive 72% on the golden ratio. Let’s not forget his vocal charm, scoring 9.91 out of 10 for vocal attractiveness," they explained.
Fourth place went to surfer Kelly Slater, fifth to comedian and former NFL player Terry Crews, and in a delightful surprise, actor Danny DeVito claimed sixth place.
Further down the list was Samuel L. Jackson ranked seventh, French soccer player Thierry Henry took eighth, Stanley Tucci secured ninth and the charming final spot went to Vin Diesel — a surprising but well-deserved entry.
