Ireland is famous for many things. As a proud Irish man myself, I’ve grown up with Riverdance, Sinead O’Connor's numerous tabloid meltdowns, Guinness, the outdated stereotypes of leprechauns and pots of gold. Oh, and Irish men. Because you see, ain't nobody can do it like an Irish boy.

In the past we’ve swooned over Pierce Brosnan, Liam Neeson and more recently Colin Farrell, but theres a smouldering new pack of Emerald hunks about to take Hollywood by storm and set hearts aflutter. These 10 guys will want you wishing you had some Irish in you.
Perennial favourite Colin Farrell may be nearing 40, but the reformed bad boy remains one of Ireland’s sexiest exports. When Colin broke out nearly 10 years ago in films such as The Recruit and Phone Booth, he was quite simply the most beautiful man in the world. Colin has been through countless women and rehab, but seems to have settled now. And still looks great. Pure Irish hunk
An acquired taste perhaps, but anyone who has seen Michael’s stunning perfomances on Hunger or Shame, would know that the Kerryman is well, ahem, equipped. Fassbender has been on a steady rise to stardom the past few years. Smouldering, intense, Michael Fassbender is an intriguing proposition.
Like Colin Farrell, Jonathan Rhys Meyers has had his personal demons to battle with. He’s long been on e of Ireland's finest actors. But it was his role on The Tudors that elevated him to new heights of stardom and sexiness. Stunning eyes, beautiful lips. And that bad boy edginess only adds to his enchanting appeal.
Currently starring in ABC’s Once Upon A Time, Colin is one of Ireland’s up and coming acting prospects. He’s already starred alongside Sir Anthony Hopkins in horror The Rites in 2011. He was also in line to play Superman in the new reboot but lost out to Henry Cavill. Dark, blue eyes and a brooding handsomeness, Colin O’Donoghue is certainly one to watch.
Padraic Delaney has long been one of my favourite Irish acting hunks. He got his kit off in The Tudors revealing a chiselled washboard stomach, muscly back and pert ass. That dimpled chin, broad shoulders. Padraic is pure Irish beef. Hope we see more of this gorgeous Wexford man on our screen soon.
Colin Morgan just screams boyfriend material. Fresh faced, cute, he is adorable. The Merlin heart throb is one of the most talented young actors from Ireland at the moment. Then theres his accent. Colin certainly has me spellbound
Even though Allen Leech is finally finding stardom as Downton Abbey’s Branson, I’ve been a huge fan of Allen for years. He first came to my attention in Irish movie Man About Dog in 2004 , before sending me aflutter in the raunchy Rome. Piercing brown eyes, boyish good looks, he can leech onto me anytime.
Jack Reynor is unquestionably Ireland;s hottest young Hollywood prospect right now. The Dublin actor is set to conquer Hollywood when he stars in the new Transformers movie next summer. Reynor looks set to follow in the footsteps of Colin Farrell. He’s already bagged himself a top acting award in Ireland , scooping the Irish equivalent of a BAFTA for his stunning performance in the fdark What Richard Did.
Jack was recently interviewed on Irelands top chat show The Late Late Show, coming across as both likeable and humble. Hes certainly got the looks and talent to be Irelands next big thing. Seriously, keep an eye out for Jack Reynor
Robert Sheehan has become a national treasure in Ireland for his acclaimed performance as Darren in the nations top rated tv show Love/Hate. He is one of the most beautiful and talented Irishmen right now. And probably the best actor. We fell in love with his curly perm as Nathan in Misfits. Smouldering, sexy, cheeky.
Jamie Dornan is sex. Pure sex. The 30 year old former beau of Keira Knightley has gotten his kit off numerous times over the years as a Calvin Klein model. He’s now moved into acting, with roles in Marie Antoinette and most notably starred in ABC’S Once Upon a Time. A body sculpted from the Gods, Jamie Dornan has long been a favourite of mine. Criminally beautiful. And not afraid to show us his impeccable sixpack and smooth ass. We can only hope Jamie wins some more high profile roles in which to show us his impressive physique
