I wasn't here to post about this at the time but I was absolutely *delighted* to hear about the Fine Things mention on the Late Late last week. Excited phone calls from Beaut.ie Mammy were only the start of it.
While Tommy Bowe was content to natter on about his sporting and singing prowess, Ryan Tubridy had other more pressing matters to interview him about. A brief chat about Donnacha O'Callaghan and his proposed tanning salon (with Paul O'Connell as the poster boy) segued naturally into chat about the bootylicious appearance of Mr Bowe himself.
"Have you heard?" asked Ryan "The Beaut.ie website have just voted you as the best looking Irish man"
Tommy had indeed heard. While he squirmed in his seat he told us of Rob Kearney's disappointment at being knocked off the number one spot and Donnacha O'Callaghan's determination to one day make the top ten. Teeth whitening and fake tans will only be the half of it.
