Bloom named Britain's sexiest actor
Beats Jude Law, Ewan McGregor

LONDON (AP) -- Perhaps it was his derring-do in pursuing the Pirates of the Caribbean or his dashing Paris in Troy but Orlando Bloom placed well ahead of his rivals in an Internet vote to find Britain's sexiest actor.

The 27-year-old, who shot to fame as Legolas in The Lord of the Rings films, won 35 per cent of the votes, beating other popular actors including Sean Bean, Hugh Grant, Ewan McGregor and Jude Law, according to the Sky Movies website Tuesday.

Bloom, who grew up in Canterbury in southern England, has said he was "chubby" as a child and joked that he acts in films because it allows him to kiss beautiful women.
