- Ex VJ Jason Dundas Is Most Eligible Bachelor 2008

The Ex MTV VJ Is Still Sexy!

Ex MTV VJ Jason Dundas was last night crowned Cleo Magazine's Bachelor Of The Year. The once Western Sydney, now Northern Beaches lad, who is currently a TV presenter on The Great Outdoors, charmed Aussie ladies with his confessions that included that he preferred "bare" to "bush"; that he was a "butt" boy; and that his guilty pleasure was the Max Brennar chocolate cafe.

But as bashful as he seems, Jason is no stranger to winning. He was also the winner of MTV's VJ search way back in 2002, and reportedly impressed judges at that time with his "confident and creative approach" to auditioning. As a result, you might remember his cheeky chops hosting TRL and Full Tank, amongst all the other stuff happening on MTV during their vintage Aussie years.

Yet despite Jason's natural confidence undoubtedly being boosted by these recent accolades, he was not all that convinced that his newly-offered crown would improve his dating prospects. Big shame, cos Jason's been reportedly trying to spoil Brasilian beauty Elissa Sursara into loving him, and also confesses to liking Orlando Bloom's girl, model Miranda Kerr.

"I think [the Bachelor Of The Year Award is] going to work against me with the girls because I want to find an honest, true girl and I don't think that's going to happen," he reportedly told AAP.

You've gotta feel for that boy. Born beautiful and talented; travelling the world for a living; and recognised for his bachelor charms must be super hard.
