Colin Farrell and Jack Nicholson Named Sexiest Celebrity Single Dads By Online Daters

    MIAMI BEACH, FL, June 19, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- This Sunday, Fathers throughout the Country will be receiving gifts from their children and bearing the title of #1 Dad. This year, single celebrity Fathers Colin Farrell and Jack Nicholson will also be gifted with the additional title of Sexiest Single Dad. Last month, leading online dating websites Date.com (http://www.date.com), Matchmaker.com (http://www.matchmaker.com), and Amor.com (http://www.amor.com), polled its members to see who they think is the sexiest celebrity single Dad. Male and female singles, ranging in age from 18 - 55+, voted the two talented thespians as the sexiest single Dads, just in time for Father's Day!

"Colin Farrell might have a party boy reputation but when it comes to his son James, who suffers from a rare neuro-genetic disorder called Angelman Syndrome, he is the picture of devotion. There is nothing sexier than a man who loves and cares for his child, and the male voters on our sites felt that Farrell's dedication to his child is extremely admirable," said Shira Zwebner, Relationship Advisor for Date.com, Matchmaker.com and Amor.com. "Meanwhile, who says you have to be young to be sexy? For our female voters, Jack Nicholson is one hot septuagenarian who has sired five children with four different women. And, while he tries to maintain a low profile in the press, he is consistently photographed spending quality time with his children."

In a new survey of thousands of online daters nationwide, we asked: It's almost Father's Day! Who do you think is Hollywood's sexiest single Dad?
