Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld Makes Bizarre Joke About John Krasinski Being ‘Trans’

Fox News host Greg Gutfeld cracked a bizarre joke about actor John Krasinski on Wednesday after learning he had been named People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” in 2024.

During a segment of The five Gutfeld began talking about the actor being “trans” for some reason — despite Krasinski being cisgender.

“I think it’s fantastic People has dominated — or announced — that a trans, uh, man can be the sexiest alive,” Gutfeld said, stumbling through his nervous line.

“Krasinski never talks about it, but he’s, you know, he’s trans. You know that?” he told The five co-host Jesse Watters, who looked back with a puzzled expression.

“No, I didn’t know that,” Watters said.

“Yeah. He’s trans. He’s trans,” Gutfeld falsely confirmed.

Gutfeld, who also sports scary lines on his eponymous Fox show, gave no context as to why he thought the mark applied to Krasinski.

He went on to joke about the title of “Sexiest Man Alive.”

“It seems redundant. I assume ‘alive’ is a given,” he said. “Nobody thinks about dead guys unless you’re some kind of pervert like Larry Kudlow. I’ll stop there.”
