International Males: Hot Around the Globe

PETE MURRAY

Hometown: Queensland, Australia
Age: 36
Status: Married (He wed longtime sweetheart Amanda Coutts on Oct. 7)
Why He's a Star: Like John Mayer, Murray is a sensitive, guitar-toting troubadour – with record sales to match. His 2003 major label debut Feeler rocketed to No. 1 on the Aussie charts and went six-times platinum. His sold-out 2004 tour was so successful he had to add extra dates. Now the singer is up for two ARIA awards (Australia's Grammys) for his album See The Sun.
What Makes Him Sexy: He's secretly a man of action. Before going the folk-rock route, the father of one was a promising rugby player.
