Say it ain't so, your hotness!

After a busy few years of work – including a sizzling stripper turn in Magic Mike – PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive says he's taking a hiatus from acting in 2013.

Channing Tatum, 32, who starred in five movies in 2012 alone, and has four more on deck for the year ahead, tells EW.com that he's not quitting acting but hopes to take some time away next year to work on directing projects with his production partner Reid Carolin, a screenwriter.

Even in death, Evel Knievel knew how to put on a show.

A crowd of thousands turned out Monday in Butte, Montana, the hometown of the legendary stunt cyclist, who died Nov. 30, at 69.

"He's forever in flight now. He doesn't have to come back down," eulogized Matthew McConaughey, 38, a pal of the daredevil and the host of a Knievel documentary on the History Channel. "He doesn't have to land."
