Is this man too sexy to win an Emmy?

As Don Draper, the dark and stormy ad executive from "Mad Men," Jon Hamm has won millions of fans and critical acclaim, as well as six Emmy nominations for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.

But, despite his talent and critical raves, he has never clinched the prize.

And fans are concerned that Hamm — who was tapped by Emmy again last week — won't win this September and probably never will. "Mad Men" ends next year, giving Hamm just two more chances, and predictors say his odds aren't great.

Why? Some say he's too gorgeous.

"It's called 'Slap the Stud Syndrome,' " says Tom O'Neil, creator of goldderby.com, an awards prediction Web site.

Hot Hamm! He's mysterious and intense, but Jon Hamm's Don Draper will have to come up with his best ad campaign ever to win an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor.

"Hollywood is run by a bunch of old geezer guys who say to these handsome leading men, 'You have good looks, money, the babes, the whole world at your feet. Here's the one thing you can't have. We have power to withhold this one thing.' "

Hamm, 42, is the latest victim of a pattern of handsome leading men getting snubbed by the Emmys.

George Clooney, nominated two times for his role on "ER," lost to the avuncular Mandy Patinkin of "Chicago Hope" in 1995, and to bald Dennis Franz of "NYPD Blue" in 1996. Rob Lowe, nominated for "The West Wing" in 2001, was bested by a hefty James Gandolfini of "The Sopranos." David Duchovny, nominated twice for "The X Files," was beaten by Franz in 1997 and in 1998 by Andre Braugher for "Homicide: Life on the Street," in a role that never smouldered.

Jared Harris, who played Lane Pryce on "Mad Men" from 2009 to 2012, admits his former co-star was hit by the sexy stick.

"He is a good-looking bastard, isn't he?" Harris tells The Post.

But unbelievably, Harris says, Hamm nearly missed out on the career-changing role because he didn't have the looks.

"What's funny about that is ['Mad Men' creator] Matt Weiner had to convince the money people, the studio or the network, because they didn't think he was good-looking enough!" Harris says. "They had to fight for him."

Other insiders say Hamm's missed out because of the "Mad Men" curse: Even though different actors have been Emmy-nominated a collective total of 25 times for their work on the show, not one of them has ever won.

"As far as Jon Hamm's nomination, he's an Emmy winner in my eyes every year," says Robert Morse, who plays agency partner Bert Cooper and is hoping to win an Emmy himself for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series after three failed bids. "He's just sensational, and we just love him and we certainly hope that it's his year."

(It's worth noting that Hamm doesn't just suffer from a "Mad Men" curse; he was nominated and lost three times as a guest star on "30 Rock" as Liz Lemon's boyfriend, too.)
