Is Baz Ireland's Sexiest Man? In a word: no. Sorry folks, when Social & Personal named novice TV presenter Baz Ashmawy as Ireland's 'Sexiest Man of 2009' this week, we felt that the award should have come with a bold asterisk and an explanation provided below. We all know that most times these honours are handed to the 'star' most willing to turn-up and actually accept the bloody thing. Sorry Bazza, you just aint that sexy mate... Baz Ashmawy In the few years since Baz Ashmawy and his car-azy two friends popped onto to our TV screens with the dismally bad 'How Low Can You Go?' scripted reality show, we've never once heard anyone describe him as sexy. Or funny or talented come to think of it. Goofy, seems to be the general consensus. Suzanne McCabe, Rob Buckley Yet at a sexy man award ceremony in Lillies Bordello this week, our Baz was presented to the Irish media as 'Remus Uomo Sexiest Man of 2009' by Social & Personal Magazine. No offence Baz, but the jury is still out on that one... Ray Shah, Michelle Molloy We're not saying Mr. Ashmawy aint at all sexy folks. He’s just not thee sexist. We suppose in a certain light with enough booze taken, he could pass as the poor woman's Gary Lineker. Although he's kinda maturing into his looks, the graying hair definitely aids his quirky aesthetic. Leigh Arnold, Marcus Sweeney But this award like many other Irish awards, are generally handed-out to the 'celebrity' most likely to turn up and accept it... What's the point of giving it to the likes of Colin Farrell or Jonathan Rhys Meyers when there's not a snowball's chance in hell of them turning up for the photo shoot and obligatory party? The likes of them wouldn't even phone it in. Jackie O'Duffy, Beatrice Larkin, Jen Hickey Truth is, we have no idea what Social & Personal editor PJ Gibbons' selection criteria is for his Top 100 Sexiest Irishmen, but looking at it now, he'd want to be making his way down to Specsavers... There are a right few mingers in there folks. Not mentioning any names. Virginia Macari At the party in Lillies Bordello this week, wacky aul Baz gushed that he was an "embarrassed" Sexy Man recipient. But he felt the award was "flattering" and "humbling". Relax there lad, don't go all Kate Winslet on us. What happened to the onnnly-mental fella who once got his balls waxed on TV? Emily Rose, Lauren Bannon Well, we could be totally wrong folks. Perhaps Baz Ashmawy is the type of Irishman that floats your boat. But we draw the line at Ryan Air's Michael O'Leary making the top ten! PJ me aul flower, are you taking the total piss? Kerri Nicole We hope he is... Either Mr. Gibbons needs to have his Sexy-o-meter seriously adjusted OR he's just taking a side swipe at our mediocre modern day Irish media. If it's the latter then he's a total feckin' genius. Lisa Fitzpatrick Sexiness is such a subjective thing folks, but we can vouch for the darn hotness caliber of the ladies who attended the Lillies party in numbers last Wednesday night... Mad how Ireland's sexiest man party was almost exclusively attended by hot women. How does that work? Sharon Bannerton Guests on the night included: Baz Ashmawy, Rob Buckley & Suzanne McCabe, Leigh Arnold & Marcus Sweeney, Virginia Macari, Lisa Fitzpatrick, Lisa Nolan, Jackie O'Duffy, Beatrice Larkin, Jen Hickey, Kerri Nicole, Kerri Nicole, Sharon Bannerton, Ray Shah & Michelle Molloy, Rachel Quinn, Fiona Roche, Emily Rose, Lauren Bannon, Geraldine Comiskey, Ann Boylan, Rachel Kavanagh, Dani Farrell, and many more... Suzanne McCabe Rumours are abound that Brendan Kilkenny will get next year's award.
