SPORTS fans may watch the Olympic Games 2008 out of sheer love for the actual athletic events.
Then there are those who are drawn to the Olympics for another reason - the hotness of the players.
Plymouth teenager Tom Daley, for example, gets a lion's share of attention.
The 14-year-old, who just made news for fighting with diving partner Blake Aldridge, has the image of a budding boy-band star.
On YouTube, his diving videos can garner up to 38,000 views from around the world.
Hong Kong-based YouTube user dimdindim wrote that Daley is "cute and hot" in one post on the website, adding that he is a "hot topic" among Hong Kong teenagers.
American swimmer Michael Phelps burnt up American website PopSugar's comments section when it conducted a recent poll on whether he was hot or not.
User esk4 called him "wicked hot", adding that the medals don't hurt either.
Besides Phelps, there are plenty of athletes whose looks, combined with their talent, put them on top of the food chain.
Which is why they've made my paper's list of gorgeous Olympians.
Read on to ogle our picks who take home unofficial Olympic medals just for looking that good.
