Olly Murs & Harry Styles Make Hottest Hunks Top 10
heat Magazine's annual countdown is out now
Harry Styles, Olly Murs and Gary Barlow are among big name stars who have made heat Magazine’s annual 101 Hottest Hunks countdown.
Compiled entirely by reader votes, Harry Styles is the highest-ranking pop star at number six ahead of his One Direction bandmate Zayn Malik in eighth place.
The unstoppable Olly Murs is in ninth spot, while proving he’s getting better and better with age, Gary Barlow just missed the top ten at number 11.
However, they have all been trumped by Olympic Bronze medallist Tom Daley who was officially crowned the Hottest Hunk of 2013.
The 18-year-old diver and star of new ITV talent show Splash! triumphed ahead of US actor Channing Tatum in second place and last year’s number one David Beckham who slipped to three.
Ever modest, Tom commented: “It’s surreal because I just do diving because I love doing it. For people to vote for me like this is great and I want to say a big thank you to everyone who voted.
“I don’t think of myself as a hunk. I just think of myself as a normal person who still goes to school, who still has to train 30 hours a week and who just gets on with life!”
Incredibly Tom received nearly three times as many reader votes as fifth placed Ryan Gosling who narrowly missed out on the top spot last year.
!heat Magazine editor-in-chief Lucie Cave said: “I'm delighted that the official hottest man on planet earth is not only British but also wears Speedos for a living. heat readers have once again shown that they have faultless taste.”
Other pop stars that made the cut include Louis Tomlinson (14), Justin Bieber (19), James Arthur (22), JLS’s Aston Merrygold (62) and Marvin Humes (62), Westlife’s Nicky Byrne (15), The Wanted’s Max George (81) and McFly’s Dougie Poynter (20) and Harry Judd (25).
