In a late surge of votes the Hottest Aussie has been decided. Anthony Callea has taken out the very first Aussielicious Award and shows that it’s not always the typical stunners that take out the crown. Anthony first won me over with the performance below as a contestant in the second series of Australian Idol. His performance had me in tears. Anthony is only 5′1″ from what I understand but he’s sexy, articulate and out and proud. He’s also obviously got some enthusiastic fans who voted with gusto in this poll.
It’s good timing too. Australian Idol starts another season tonight and if the hype is to be believed, they have uncovered some fantastic talent and fingers crossed, some hotties.
Congratulations Anthony!
What a great voice! I’m sure there must be a CD with his name on it somewhere.
Anthony Callea definitely has one of the finest voices in the Music industry today.
He is one amazing talent, with a voice that touches your soul, a personalty like no other and when it comes to looks, well the award says it all - well deserved!!!
Anthony has released two Albums- his self title album called Anthony Callea and his second album called A New Chapter. He is currently working on this third Album. A definite buy Peter!!!
Hey thats fantastic news and my choice, agree what a voice.
Look like it was close they are all great guys.
Curious to know why Brenton doesn’t see Anthony as a typical “stunner”
He looks pretty damn hot to me
Rigged!
Congratulations Anthony you really deserved to win this award. You were certainly my choice.
Anthony is the whole package - An amazing talent with a beautiful exquisite voice straight from heaven - A brilliant song writer - A caring amazing personality - extraordinary good looking handsome man with beautiful eyes and a gorgeous smile - A born entertainer and a passionate performer with a beautiful heart and soul.
Wonder how many of anthony young girls fans actually voted…..i think it would have been a different result!!
Recently saw him in Wicked and it was kinda Blah and Meh!
5 gorgeous guys, any one of them worthy winners.
What a great showing for Anthony considering that his forum moderators deleted the link to the poll on Tuesday as they didn’t want to direct the young girls to a site with male nudity.
Loved him in Wicked, fabulous voice!
Would have been almost as happy to se Hugh win, what a honey!!
Brenton — I commend you for refraining from doing what I would do and say “How the hell could all you people vote for that midget!!???”
Ryen FYI,there’s no such thing as a midget, and Anthony Callea isn’t a dwarf either. Brenton, I think Anthony is 5′2″ tall and although I’m taller than that, standing beside him, he doesn’t appear vertically challenged. What’s height got to do with being a ’stunner’? He’s a helluva gorgeous-looking guy with a voice to die for - and he has a lot of female fans, from the very young right through all the generations to the goldie oldies. He is fabulous as Boq/The Tin Man in Wicked of Oz, and he’s certainly a very interesting and versatile entertainer of whom Australia can be immensely proud.
Congratulations on winning this poll, Anthony. Extremely well-deserved amongst tough competition.
Congratulations Anthony!
You are the voice for all ages and serious eye candy as well.
From your diehard fans … BRAVO!
Anthony is 5′5″ tall…
Congrats Anthony…you deserve this award!
GO ANTHONY!
He’s got the look, the voice, the talent, the personality, the charm and he’s HOT!!!
From his devoted fans, well done Anthony!
Congratulations Anthony!
You’re “THE HOT WITH THE LOT”!
Ryen, I wonder if you would object to being referred to as a ‘faggot’ or some other defamatory comment relating to an aspect of your life that you had nothing to do with creating. Anthony’s height, like every other measurement is irrelevant to his attraction, appeal, sexiness etc. That comment does you no justice. Are we not the butt of enough derogatory remarks about our sexuality already, without being insulted by one of our own. I was actually annoyed at Brenton’s comment which said “only 5′1″ from what I understand but he’s sexy, articulate and out and proud”. Saying but implies that the height is also an issue that can be overlooked because of the other attributes. Let’s try to avoid slagging each other off at least.
He looks plastic to me, not attractive at all but hey to each their own. I don’t like his voice either, it’s like fingernails running down a blackboard
Congrats to Anthony for winning the award…and congrats also to Iain for a very classy remark!
