Despite Michael Fassbender's humble assertion that it's purely his celebrity status that attracts women, I have a hard time believing that any woman (or man) could resist the hot Irish-German actor's sex appeal, famous or not. Sarah Paulson knows what we're talking about:

"He just looks at you, and you want to take your clothes off."

See, it's science. There are many, many reasons Michael Fassbender is one of the sexiest stars of our time, including his talent, looks, and sense of humor. But let's explore what it is about him that really reels you in, that je ne sais quoi. We'll be over here fanning ourselves.
