There's little doubt about which A-list hunk our readers would like to spend New Year's Eve with. After a fortnight of frenetic voting, Orlando Bloom has charged home to first place in the hellomagazine.com dream date poll.

The Legolas actor left literally thousands of you weak at the knees, scoring twice as many votes as his nearest runner-up, rugby hero Jonny Wilkinson. And in taking nearly 50 per cent of the entire poll, he left the likes of Hollywood heavyweight George Clooney and Irish wildman Colin Farrell in the shade.

Ricky Martin's leather-clad hips also made quite an impression, helping him salsa his way into third place, while the soft-spoken Monegasque royal Andrea Casiraghi took fourth.

There was some surprise disappointment for Calvin Klein model Freddie Ljungberg, however, as he had to settle for seventh. And it seems that the king of "bling bling" is no prince of hearts, as P Diddy came last.
