Gordon Ramsay the most admired man in the UK

This poll in the UK edition of Esquire isn’t too much of a surprise I guess. I can understand why chef and TV host Gordon Ramsay is the most admired guy, especially in a popular, “of the moment” sort of way. But what I find funny is that he beat scientist and author Stephen Hawking, a man that has literally changed the way we look at space, time, and the universe.

Other people

on the list after Ramsay (17%) and Hawking (14%) are Ray Mears (a TV survival expert - probably unknown to many of us here in the U.S.), who got 11% of the vote, new James Bond Daniel Craig, who also got 11%, and comedian/writer Ricky Gervais, who somehow only got 9% of the vote.

The new season of Hell’s Kitchen, the U.S. show that Ramsay hosts, starts on FOX, June 4 at 9pm.

    Gordon Ramsay has this air about him. He is a devil in the kitchen, being an advocate on what he wants his food to be like. If I were eating at Hells Kitchen at least I would know that the food is high quality. And then there is his soft side. He just grins from ear to ear. He is hot, I agree!
