Luxembourg's Grand Duke Henri ranked 6th hottest head of state

Luxembourg's Grand Duke Henri has been voted the sixth “hottest head of state” in a tongue-in-cheek ranking by an American website.

The surreal site, one of a handful operated by JD and Kate Industries, introduces the Luxembourg head of state as a “handsome” Grand Duke, who can “trace his ancestry back to the seventh century AD, whereas you probably count yourself lucky that you know who your real dad is”.

It provides a creative potted biography of the father-of-five, who turned 60 this year.

The top place in the list of 199 figures and hottest head of state title was awarded to Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, King of Bhutan, who is described as “one of the most eligible bachelors on our list of hot world leaders.”
