These are photos of Bill Ghostbustin’ Murray at the Berlin premiere of Grand Budapest Hotel (Kaiser already covered the Tilda Swinton ferocity). Bill is one of my favorite movie personalities, so I’m thrilled to see him everywhere as he promotes this movie and The Monuments Men. Did you see him on Letterman last week? He flew onto the stage dressed as Peter Pan. He can only get away with such a ridiculous display because he’s Bill Murray.
MTV is spreading the love too. Most of the time, I roll my eyes when MTV tosses out an award or title. This time, I’m taking notice because they officially topped People’s declaration of Adam Levine as Sexiest Man Alive. MTV named Bill their Sexiest Man Alive and gave him a special hat. They also spoke to George Clooney and CB’s boyfriend, Matt Damon. Both men took the news well in this video. Bill simply laughed at the news and tried to give the hat away.
This reminds me of that quote in Stripes: “Chicks dig me because I rarely wear underwear, and when I do, it’s usually something memorable.” God, I love Bill Murray.
Bill’s also been doing the interview rounds. He confirmed how Clooney did alter Matt Damon’s pants on set, and Bill said everyone knew about it: Bill also said he enjoys crashing at Clooney’s villa. I want Bill to come crash at my “villa” too. Ahem.

WAAAAYYYYY better choice than skeevy Adam Levine!
Bill Murray is awesome, much better than Levine.
Way better choice than Adam Levine.
SO much better than that tattooed, sleazy, model-f&cker Levine.
True story, I met Bill Murray, his brother Brian Doyle Murray and an entourage of kids from Duke University (never fully understood that connection?) in Captiva Island, FLA in the ’80’s. They were crazy, funny (loud!) and Bill was completely off his rocker, in a good way. Let’s just say that they created a very fun evening, fueled by all the evil party favors the ’80’s had to offer. Murray was talking to a bar stool by the time my friend and I made our escape from the club, but he left me with a great story.
Thanks for the memories, Crazy Bill! #TeamMurray
Well a negative STD test result is sexier than Adam Levine, and Bill Murray is just superior in every way so in answer to the title question: seriously?
LOL
My 1st thought too!
Good Gawd, I love this man. He’s funny and smart with a just a hint of melancholy.
But is it true he beat up his ex?
Jennifer Murray in 2006 filed for divorce from her estranged husband Bill alledging a lot of stuff. Physical/verbal assault, abandonment, an alleged on her cell’s voicemail recording of him saying she was lucky he didn’t kill her. I couldn’t find the recording, but she claimed her minor children heard it. (Did she let them hear it?)
She also went for tossing out the prenup that would leave her with only 7million and 1 of their homes. (1 home being in SC that he purchased for her only.)
In the end she got primary custody of the kids, her 7million, and 2 homes.
There was talk he left her because their relationship was toxic on both sides and she pursued him being the antagonist, while he just wanted to get away.
Ultimately there are 2 sides here and Bill didn’t really speak up while she was thought to be a gold digger. He could very well be abusive though.
I’ll maintain he’s sexy because all I know for sure is he’s incredibly funny and that is sexy.
MTV would never name a woman Bill Murray’s age ‘sexiest’ anything.
MTV never knew Hellen Miller
No contest, Bill Murray. The only choice for the discerning lady who sleeps four feet above her covers.

I had a crush on him when I was a little girl because of Ghostbusters; how can I not approve?
Me too! He was my first movie star crush.
I cannot wait for Grand Budapest Hotel.
When there are Latin characters in a movie, they cast a Latin actor. When there are French characters, they cast French actors, Italian for Italian, and so on. But they almost never cast Slavic or Eastern European actors for those parts and I HATE that Are there any Slavic actors in GHB? Does anybody know?
Umm…while I love Bill Murray…and think he is so funny…sexy is not an adjective I would use to describe him….sorry…
Me neither but it’s pretty funny, him unseating the usual suspects.
Metric tons AND Eons better Bill Murray best everything
Yes!
He is awesome. I wish I got to see more of him.
SO much better!
The real question is how much money changed hands to get Adam Levine that cover to begin with.
awesome choice. Now I need to re-watch Lost In Translation and Stripes.
Um. No. Sorry, while I think Bill Murray is a great actor, he’s not sexy at all. He’s never been good-looking actually. But I suppose a guy can look like him and still be called sexy for some reason. A woman? No way.
I wonder how many women voted in the MTV poll? Very few, I suspect. I really can’t see a group of female voters selecting Murray as ‘world’s sexiest man’, even if they admire him as an actor.
A million times better than Adam Levine! I love Bill Murray, I think he was a babe back when he was in Ghost Busters. Just for the record, I’m 25. This man is awesome, and always had a soft spot for his voice for some weird reason. Go Bill Murray!
BEST.CHOICE.EVER.
Yes, a thousand times yes! A much, much better choice. Bill Murray is awesome.
Finally a smart and hilariously talented winner! Levine makes me want to disinfect myself just looking at him
A gaadzillion trillion frillion godzillion times better than the repugnant Levine – whenever I see him I think of Tommy Wiseau in The Room (“I did nahhhhhhhhhhhhtt!!”) 😛
Yes… And that is because Bill Murray is a god and all GODS are sexier than mortals.
Hell and yes. Specifically bc he is a man and AL is a boy. 🙂
My friend hung out with him here in Florida few times , he smokes a lot of green and he is very funny supposedly
100x better choice than Adam Levine. I approve wholeheartedly!
A squillion times yes. A bit weathered, but funny, talented and intelligent – the knicker dropping trifecta.
An excised genital wart is sexier than Levine.
H to the yeah. I would take Bill any day over that tattoed prat. Love him.
