He's known as The Voice, but now Russell Watson has won admirers for another of his natural gifts.

The Salford singing sensation has been named the male Rear Of The Year.

And chart star Rachel Stevens was named top of the bottoms among women.

Watson, who bounced back after surgery for a brain tumour in 2007, said: "For the past 10 years it's always been about The Voice but, for the first time, I'm delighted to say it's about my rear.

"Winning the Rear of the Year Award is better than getting an OBE."

Stevens, 31, has previously been voted the world's second sexiest woman in a poll for FHM magazine.

She said: "I'm very flattered and I'm now going to insure each cheek for a considerable sum of money."
