Today is Valentine’s Day and I know many of you ladies are sad and alone. Not to worry though. Put down that tub of ice-cream, let the cats out and check out The Potato’s Top 10 Most Eligible Bachelors from around the world.
10: Steve Jobs
The first question you may ask is “Didn’t he die?” Technically he did, but with a fortune worth $8 billion, death shouldn’t put you off. Having a dead husband isn’t necessarily a bad thing; many married women would love it. And the death means his previous marriage is no longer valid. Will he be the Apple™ of your eye?
9: Pope Benedict
His Holiness has been in the news a lot lately and by the end of the month, the 85 year old will be known as Joseph Ratzinger again. If you like domineering, take-control type of guy, then this may be the one for you. He has a fabulous dress sense and has his own car. There’s an only one drawback lady, you might be barking up the wrong bush. Check out this article.
8: Mel Gibson
If you want to hook-up with a sexist, racist, homophobic anti-semite, but you think the Pope is a bit too old, then this American –born, Australian actor is for you. Fond of the old drink, this acting, directing, producing, writing Christian seems to have no limits. It appears the only thing he can’t do is stop himself from making offensive remarks. A man of passion you might say.
7: Issei Sagawa
This Japanese lothario is a writer and an actor and has become quite the celebrity in Japan after he killed and ate one of his classmates whilst attaining a PhD at the Sorbonne, Paris. Yes ladies, a PhD at the Sorbonne. After being extradited to Japan and spending a few years in a mental asylum (nobody’s perfect), he released himself, wrote a few books and became a public speaker.
6: King Mswati III
His Majesty, The Ndlovukati of Swaziland to be precise, is head of the 10th richest royal family in the world. The resident of the warm, luscious Southern African country works hard and plays hard (well plays hard anyway) and is known for his luxurious spending. Now you’re probably thinking about that big palace you’ll have to clean, but don’t worry, His Highness is a practising polygamist and already has 14 other wives to share in the housework. (His father notched up 125+)
5: Larry Murphy
The only Irish entry in the list and this Baltinglass native is a charmer. Currently living in Amsterdam, this Casanova may have quite a few notches on his bed post (although, he currently denies this and the police have found no evidence as of yet). One things certain, you’ll probably only get one date with this guy, he’s the ‘one-night stand’ type. Watch out girls, this guy is a real lady-killer.
4: Prince Bandr
The youngest of seven sons of King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, custodian of the two mosques and King of Saudi Arabia is part of the third wealthiest royal family in the world with an estimated family fortune of $18 billion from oil production. Some drawbacks include the fact that he’s way down the line to ever to become king and the fact he’s only 12. But beggars can’t be choosers.
3: Gary Glitter
This glam rock superstar had between 1972 and 1995, 26 hit singles which spent a total of 180 weeks in the UK Top 100; twelve of those reached the Top 10, with three charting at number 1. Spending later years in South-East Asia, he developed a penchant for younger ladies. Are you young enough? We’ll if you’ve had enough education to be able to read this then probably not.
2: Kim Jong-un
The new dictator, I mean Supreme Leader of North Korea, is the youngest head of state. He comes from good genes, with his father and grand-father being the two greatest men every to have lived (according to North Korean press). Plus he has nuclear weapons! Why is stud not number one, well it’s rumoured that the leader of the ultra-secretive state is married already. But it is still unconfirmed; so keep your fingers crossed.
1: God
Yet again the top spot goes to the ultimate bachelor, The Lord Almighty. The man who invented puppies, chocolate and diamonds and puts the ‘man’ in romantic. What’s not to love about a guy who can create and destroy anything and why has he remained single for so long – who knows? One thing’s for sure, this single parent of one son, is always looking for love and maybe you can be the one to send him to heaven.
