Awards season may be over but one star has received a title that some would say is better than an Oscar itself

Captain America has swapped his shield for a new badge of honour.

Chris Evans has been named People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive.

For nearly a decade, Evans played Captain America in Marvel’s superhero films, taking the award from another Avenger, Paul Rudd.

Evans told the magazine “My mom will be so happy.. this is something she can really brag about”

He also knows that he’s likely to be teased by close friends.

Joking to people, he says that “Really this will just be a point of bullying.”

Among those likely to heckle him are co-stars and previous Sexiest Man Alive winners like Ryan Reynolds and Chris Hemsworth.

Evans face is splashed over People’s cover story, which hits newsstands on Friday.

Threads, the social media platform owned by Meta, is gaining traction with a surge in daily active users, outpacing X in the U.S.

With Threads averaging 28 million daily active users compared to X’s 22 million, Meta’s ambitions to reach a billion users seem within reach despite a slowdown in growth. While X still boasts 550 million monthly active users globally, Threads’ focus on user experience and avoidance of real-time and political content could position it as a formidable competitor moving forward.
