Nicola has been voted Scotlands third most eligible woman in the recent Scotland on Sunday list.
Katie Leung and Sarah Playfeair took first and second places
3 Nicola Benedetti
Violinist, 20
Lives London and West Kilbride
Who is she? Nicola started learning the violin at the age of four in her native Ayrshire and enrolled herself in the Yehudi Menuhin School at 15. The BBC Young Musician of the Year 2004 released her first album to huge acclaim - it was the fastest-selling violin debut in history - while her second entered the classical album charts at number two and her third, Vaughan Williams - Tavener, was released in September. Despite rumours she has been practising duets, Nicola is still officially playing solo...
Plus With her £1 million six-album deal, you know she'll be happy to go dutch.
Minus Nicola is constantly on the road and her schedule for next year is just as hectic, so anyone looking for a musical collaboration had better be willing to play second fiddle to her Stradivarius.
Do Offer to do a little DIY around her new flat, as Nicola's daily six hours' practice don't leave her much spare time.
Don't Say "Have you thought about showing a little more midriff on your album covers like Vanessa Mae?"
