Top music magazine picks trans man for "sexiest Canadian man"
Lead singer of the The Cliks, Lucas Silveira, was awarded the Chart Attack "Throw Your Underwear Award" in the male category.
While often times these sexiest person alive contests just reinforce traditional ideas of attractiveness (based on body shape, size, gender and race) it's pretty cool to see an openly trans guy make it to the top of this one.
And the best part? It was a reader-selected award. Nice work Canada.
After Ellen has more about Lucas and his band.

thats really whats up....i agree, Lucas is sexy.
Oh DAMN! He IS sexy!
Good choice!
I'm moving to Canada. If only to be closer to him. Hot damn.
okay, so i went trolling youtube a little, and found both music videos by and interviews with him and his band. and was amazed at how different his singing voice is from his speaking voice. seriously, he ended up sounding like two different people depending on what he was doing on camera --- almost spooky.
Canada FTW. he's a major babe.
Yah for us Canadians finally getting something right! We have crap governments, but at least we know who's hot, oh yah.
