Who is the World's Coolest Man?
Discussion
By the look of that list cool is either being an actor or a singer.
No disrespect but those people aren't cool because their lives are ultimately meaningless. They either speak other peoples words or sing other peoples lyrics and try to convince you they are genuine emotions.
What's cool about that?

The opening list of past coolsters also includes politicians and sportsmen. I do not agree that musicians and actors are all meaningless people of no import, and in any event the test is about being cool.
Some additions from the past: -
Carl Sagan
Jim Lovell
Placido Domingo
Jack Nicholson
Nelson Mandela
Paul Newman
Ossie Clark
Toshiro Mifune
Lee Marvin
Yves Saint Laurent
Prince (already mentioned above)
Jimi Hendrix
Stephen Hawking
Stan Lee
Of the current contenders, I suggest that Robert Downey Junior tries too hard to be the World's Coolest man. Tony Stark IS the World's coolest man, but he doesn't exist. Idris Elba has a good shout.
Harry Windsor certainly has his hat in the ring, but he has arguably ruined his bid by saying that his difficulties (speaking about which is admirable) have affected his work, as he ain't actually got a job.
It is possible to hold the title more than once. For example, Clint Eastwood has been World's Coolest Man on at least two and possibly three occasions.
It is possible to have been uber cool and become deeply uncool. John Travolta may qualify here.

Harrison Ford was World's Coolest Man in the late 70s and early 80s. He is arguably a contender for World's Coolest Man of 2015, but I think that the earring possibly lets him down.
World's Coolest Woman is a different thread and has different rules. The position may have been vacant since the death of Carrie Fisher, although Amy Schumer, Emma Watson, and Michelle Obama may all be contenders at present.
