THE SCOTTISH SUN REVEALS
SCOTLAND'S hunkiest fella will be crowned at a glitzy awards ceremony tonight.
The Scottish Sun and top women's glossy No.1 magazine teamed up to find the nation's biggest stud - with one lucky guy set to be named Mr Scotland.
Rangers stars Allan McGregor, Neil Alexander and Maurice Edu helped launch this year's search, which is also raising awareness of testicular cancer. The final five will battle it out at Glasgow's Oran Mor venue tonight.
The winner will take the crown plus a deal with top modelling agency Colours and a trip to New York. They'll also front an ad campaign for menswear firm Slaters.
Here we take a look at the five beefcakes hoping to be named Scotland's most gorgeous guy.
The Scottish Sun has five pairs of tickets left to give away. To be in with a chance of winning, email hunks@ no1magazine.co.uk with the name of venue where the final will be held.

HE SAYS: "My family are excited but most of my friends are taking the mickey out of me.
"My girlfriend is really thrilled about it but I think that she's more interested about the trip to New York than me being in the competition.

HE SAYS: "I'm quite excited, I've not done anything like this before so I'm looking forward to it.
"I've not told my mum yet but my girlfriend is ecstatic. Maybe it's the prospect of having a boyfriend that's a hunk but I think it's more down to the thought of a trip to New York."

"Before that I lived in Hawaii for ten years. Obviously the weather's very different to Scotland's weather!"
COURTNEY RILEY
