Like a beautiful cosmic gift, every once in a while on Jan. 13, the universe blesses us all. With sexiness.

On this day, at least four men who have appeared in — or had some association with — PEOPLE’s annualSexiest Man Alive issuecelebrate their birthdays. These guys have wowed us as rebels, special agents and pirates. One of them is a real-life race-car driver. Another set the swoon-inducing path for a two-time Sexiest Man Alive.

In no particular order, the Sexiest birthday boys are …

Liam Hemsworth

The Aussie actor, 32 today, just happens to be the brother of thepast Sexiest Man Alive, Chris Hemsworth. (Good gene pool!) He has also been featured in almost every annual SMA issue since 2011. Clearly, there is aHungerfor theMockingjayheartthrob.

Patrick Dempsey

You don’t get dubbed “McDreamy” for nothin’. Dempsey, 56, really hit his Sexy stride in 2005 when his mellifluous hair made it easy to overlook all those malpractice-worthy hospital trysts onGrey’s Anatomy. What’s more, the race-car enthusiast has proven he can pull off a kilt and a Bill Clinton mask as well as a pair of scrubs — inthe same movie, no less.

Orlando Bloom

First brought into the SMA fold back in 2003, theLord of the Ringssaga star, 45, has played a blond elf, a swashbuckler on the high seas and Romeo Montague himself. Given his ability to wield a sword as smoothly as a sonnet, it’s no surprise he’s been involved with some of the most beautiful women in the world and is now engaged toKaty Perry.

Nick Clooney

Clooney’s sonGeorge, 60, may get all the buzz 364 days a year, but Jan. 13 is his pop’s day. The celebrated newsman, 88, is quite literally the Father of Sexy. (Twice!)

Happy birthday, gentleman. May the Sexy ever be in your favor.
