1. Marti Pellow

   

   Quite possibly the most handsome male ever born. As producer Willie Mitchell noted, he has one of the best voices of the century. This man can sing!

   Additionally, he is a performer, songwriter, musical theatre, and panto actor. He has the goods to match his exceedingly good looks. He is clever, witty, and has a hilarious sense of humor. Oh, and let's not forget his very sexy Scottish accent.

   Even now, in his 50s, he has a hunky physique and is still the sexiest man around. He is so talented, with the best voice of all, so much charisma, and so enigmatic. Great performer. Marti Pellow has it all in spades.

   The hottest bass player ever, Nikki Sixx, messed with many chicks in strip clubs on Sunset Boulevard, where Mötley Crüe rocked at concerts. He is handsome and has a sexy hair metal haircut that kickstarts lots of girls' hearts with his music, which includes sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Also, he is a bad boy who kicks a lot of ass on the wild side.

   He is the Dr. Feelgood who makes people feel all right. He is the only bass player who has the male beauty and the guts to write lyrics for his songs and bring some of the greatest hits ever since he was with Mötley Crüe and then with Sixx

   M. without slowing down because it's all in the name of rock and roll.

   In my opinion, the sexiest man on the planet! Not only to look at, but he is bursting with passion from within too. His lips and that cute, sexy smile he delivers straight down the camera - I've been lucky enough to have him look straight into my camera, and oh, I'll never forget that.

   His eyes are beautiful, and every line on his face is not old, just older, and he is certainly aging with grace. My favorite sex appeal music video has to be Miracle. This guy is absolutely beautiful to the core. I have named him God in the form of Man - perfection!

   This man knows how to be sexy. He can sing with that amazing husky, sexy voice while those pretty blue eyes look deep into the camera and his hair moves with the wind. It just takes our breath away.

    Morten should be number one. Way better looking than Marti Pellow and Michael Jackson. He also has a beautiful voice. For me, he and Whitney Houston top it. Oh, an honorable mention: the King, Elvis Presley. He and Morten are beautiful men with stunning voices.

    Lead singer of A-ha, famous for "Take On Me." Not only is this guy drop-dead gorgeous, but he also has the voice of an angel. He's sweet and polite. He doesn't even really enjoy being famous. He's relatable, he's a family man, and he loves animals. Did I mention he's drop-dead gorgeous?
