DatingDirect.com – a UK online dating service – asked 5,000 of its female members what male celebrity they had a secret crush on. The results are, mildly put, surprising.
Top Gear star Jeremy Clarkson placed third in the survey. That’s right, the 47-year old impertinent host gets UK women all hot-and-bothered, whether they openly admit or not. Others in the top ten were celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, the English National Football (soccer) team’s manager Fabio Capello, and former football (soccer) star Gary Lineker.
And, in typical, cantankerous Clarkson fashion, he felt the survey was bullocks. He told The Sun, “So I beat a man who looks like Shrek (Capello), a man with ears the size of satellite dishes (Lineker), and a man who calls a spade a spade (Ramsay). Doesn’t say much.”

I dreamt last night that I was hanging out with Clarkson, and he pointed out into the backyard at a rickety old henhouse and said “That’s where Top Gear got its start.” I don’t know quite what it meant, but he was pretty g-d funny.
And this was posted here because…?
So that we know that British girls are apparently hard up for attractive men.
I’d take him over Victoria Beckham.
What? Okay. Eww.
And this is what magazine?
To those who have never seen Clarkson, or Top Gear, I’d recommend putting “Jeremy Clarkson” in the search on You Tube and watch. This is one funny dude. He knows cars and gives credit and praise when it’s due, but on the other hand if somethings wrong , you’ll soon know about it. IMHO he’s the most car guy of the car guys on T.V. Also one poll in the UK puts him number 6 in line for Prime Minister.
I’m with carson44 - Jeremy is the man! The US Top Gear will be nothing without him.

Thanks, I know Jeremy Clarkson without searching on YouTube. I just couldn’t for the life of me figure out why Winding Road is turning into Oprah.
[…] Jeremy Clarkson seems omnipresent these days; we can’t seem to avoid his ugly mug. But, his expertise is fascinating and he’s always good for a laugh. […]
