Not all celebrities spend their days shopping and clubbing. (Are you listening Paris Hilton and Britney Spears?) They're working girls and guys — just like us! — and sometimes log 17-hour days. So we tracked down some of our favorite TV stars and asked them what they do to unwind. Aside from the usual warm milk and hot bath, most celebrities have their own remedies for relaxing after a long day on the set. From hitting the gym to hitting the Internet, find out how Hollywooders chill out.

Apparently so, according to People magazine. Surely I cannot be the only one who has noticed this. Save for one (Denzel Washington), there has never been a man of color on the cover of the annual "Sexiest Man Alive" issue. Seriously? You mean Nick Nolte actually once "graced" the cover of People as the "Sexiest Man Alive" and the likes of Benjamin Bratt, Taye Diggs, Blair Underwood, Boris Kodjoe, Will Smith, Jesse L. Martin (Law & Order), Terrence Howard, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Edris Elba, Eddie Murphy, Welsley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Sendhil Ramamurthy (Heroes), Tyson Beckford, Rodrigo Santoro (The 300), Esai Morales, Oscar De La Hoya, um, President-elect Barack Obama, somehow don't measure up? Seriously? Isn't the adage or standard of masculine beauty "talk, dark and handsome?" So can someone please explain to me why People magazine religiously voids that on their cover, every single year?
