Prince, i think. U mean ever or out of the aforementioned choices-- GM wasnt really oversexualized on the level of Madge or P til....well, ever.

He was sexy, though.



But i was born in '84. shrug

This is a subjective/generational question. My mom screamed the whole time she was as the Frank Sinatra concert at the famous Paramount theatre. Many of that time would say he was the first sexxed out pop icon. Some would say believe it or not some of the band leaders of the 40's were. Some would say Marlene Dietrich was a sexxed out Pop icon. Lily Langtree from the 1800's....capeesh?
Elvis-50's
Beatles-60's
too many to name from the 70's..david cassidy, bobby sherman, etc
leif garret, shaun cassidy, nelson brothers...etc..etc...ad nauseum
Where there is sex, there is money

Rudolph valentino was the first real sex icon. The one who was known around the world as a serious sex symbol. Some say the coined the term "sex symbol" on him. The story goes that some writer said he isn't a actor and doesn't carry a story in a film, he is just a "sex symbol".

Elvis dyed his hair black, and grew sideburns to be like him...
Bowie's thin white duke adopted Valentino's style of dress and hair style.
Jim Morrison was even intrigued by Valentino's power of sensuality.
And Prince's whole "prince eyes" thing, and Christopher Tracy persona is all valentino.

I think the Question was Sexxed out and not Sex idol. Music,Lyrics,persona and public image. It would b Prince hands down and then his female immpersonator Maddonna!
