Top 10 Hottest World Leaders and Royalty

Born in the capital city of Greece, Alexis Tsipras was named one of TIME magazine’s most influential people in 2015 - and for good reason! Politically active since his youth, the well-educated former engineer has a mature and polished look - despite the fact that he’s the youngest political leader in modern Greek history AND he barely ever wears ties! But that’s all part of his appeal. On top of that, the football fan is down-to-earth and shares his life with partner Peristera ‘Betty’ Batziana, a woman whom he met when they were in high school. It works for us!

The President of Slovenia may not be the most popular world leader to date, but once you get a look at those baby-blues, you’ll see why he belongs in the top ten. Not only does this Social Democrat have an active Twitter account, but the man can play the drums, and has a funny-bone too. Rumored to have modeled as a youth to pay his university fees, he can speak six different languages… and let’s face it: there’s something about this dashing European that makes you think he belongs in the Brat Pack.

America’s first African American president may be one of the most powerful men on the planet while he’s in office, but thankfully he handles that power with grace, aplomb and a hint of badassery. This Hawaii native with Kenyan andEnglish ancestry came into power at a time when the world desperately needed a change. Out went the old and in came the cool new dude that plays basketball, makes jokes and has an equally appealing First Lady at his side. Though many have tried to bring him down, Obama has never lost his cool, and through his presidential addresses we can really see how strongly he believes in his country.

In what’s sometimes called “The Forbidden Kingdom,” there lives a young Buddhist known as the “Dragon King” of Bhutan. Khesar is a real king of the tiny country bordered by China and India. Dubbed “Prince Charming” by the Thai press, not only is the Dragon King refined in his traditional garb and married to the stunning Queen Jetsun Pema, but he also might just be the most well-liked royal on this list. Known as the “people’s king,” he has taken a stand for democracy in his country and has become very popular throughout Asia.

Our next royal is as princely as they come. The Crown Prince of Denmark speaks four languages, has a keen interest in science and climate change, and also keeps himself in seriously good shape. With a charming grin, baby blue eyes, and a timeless sense of style, this royal looks like he belongs in a Lacoste catalogue instead of a stuffy old palace and has more than earned his place on this list.

This next prince is so cute, it’s hard to decide if you’d rather give him a kiss or pinch his cheeks. The nephew of King Phillipe of Belgium, this young man may look like your typical Prince Charming on the surface, but he has a lot of education and work experience under his belt as well, which makes him one of the most down-to-earth princes on this list. When he independently married his sweetheart in 2015 without prior approval from the king, which threatened his succession to the throne, he cemented his place in our hearts as the fairy tale prince who loves his princess more than the crown. Though it’s interesting to note that King Philip gave him retroactive permission a year later.

This crown prince was born into extravagance most of us will never experience, but don’t let his billionaire status fool you. He may get to hang out with a lion from time to time, a fact he likes to show off on social media, have exotic luxury cars at his disposal, and a fetish for extreme sports, but this prince has also shown a more vulnerable side. Using the penname “Faz’za” he’s well known for his romantic and patriotic poetry, is an avid equestrian and horse lover, and is the Chairman of the Dubai Autism Centre.

As the youngest son of Prince Charles and Princess Diana, this royal has been under the spotlight his entire life. While his older brother, William, garnered a lot of attention for his philanthropic efforts and wedding to Kate Middleton, Harry is only now coming out of his bad-boy image. From inappropriate costumes to leaked naked photos in Las Vegas hotel rooms, he’s given tabloids lots to work with. These days, Harry’s cleaned up his act and has given back with his charitable organizations, kissing babies and cutting ribbons. Meanwhile, his cheeky grin, ginger locks, and mischievousness has made this man a favorite among women, whether they’re British or not.

What more can be said about this gorgeous young prince than “hubba-hubba?” This dashing Swede is definitely up there when it comes to the tall, dark and handsome department. Not as popular as the British royalty, but equally as dazzling, the Duke of Värmland is an avid race car driver, athlete and artist. With a background in Agricultural and Rural Management, Carl Philip takes his princely duties seriously, acting as his father’s representative on royal matters. The unfortunate end of his bachelorhood came in the summer of 2015, when he married model Sofia Hellqvist in a wedding probably only rivaled by that of Prince William and Kate Middleton.

Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions:

Felipe VI
King of Spain

Prince Philippos
Prince of Greece and Denmark

Our pick for hottest world leader is the handsome Canadian that has taken the world by storm ever since he took office in late 2015. Justin Trudeau may not be a prince by blood, but as the son of the mostly revered Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau, he practically counts as royalty in the Great White North. Not only is this suave world leader bilingual, well-dressed, and down to earth, but also his charm hasn’t gone unnoticed in the rest of the world. Whether you’re a fan of his progressive politics or just his breathtaking smile, you can’t help but love this Canadian hunk.
