JAMES MCAVOY IS HOLLYWOOD SPY'S BEST SCOTTISH ACTOR FOLLOWED BY EWAN MCGREGOR. NEW POLL: WHO SHOULD BE 2012 OSCARS HOST?

 Well, HOLLYWOOD SPY's THE BEST SCOTTISH STAR poll is over and we were the witnesses of the power of James McAvoy's fans (called the McAvoyeurs) who left stunning 216

votes (62%) proclaiming him the proud winner. He left Ewan McGregor (19%), Gerard Butler (8%) and Robert Carlyle (7%) behind him.

The young star from the British Isles, James McAvoy really is a rising shinning gem in Hollywood. Who wouldn't love him with all of his talent, charisma, peaceful presence and modesty. Admit that you just loved him in NARNIA, that he was the only amazing thing in ATONEMENT, that you believed him in DUNE and wanted to

worship the Muad'Dib, that he took your heart away in PENELOPE and that you loved the x in his Professor X in X-MEN FIRST CLASS. That you wanted him in WANTED, that you wished to catch a ride with him at THE LAST STATION,

that he was rather becoming in BECOMING JANE, and that you wanted to join the army when you saw him in BAND OF BROTHERS :)

In the future he will land his voice in ARTHUR CHRISTMAS, he will be a detective in WELCOME TO THE PUNCH, then he will play a junkie cop in FILTH and then an art heist expert in TRANCE. He really deserves some bigger roles in Hollywood. His wife is also a famous British actress Anne Marie Duff (brilliant as queen Elizabeth in amazing THE VIRGIN QUEEN mini series), he is an ex-roommate and great friend with Jesse Spencer (HOUSE),  he

wanted to be a priest as a kid...

Now let us move to our new poll - WHO SHOULD BE 2011 OSCARS HOST? You already know that Eddie Murphy has got the job, but beside him, for which of the following candidates would you also vote: Ben Stiller, Justin Timberlake, Sandra Bullock, Neil Patrick Harris, Betty White, Tim Allen, Robin Williams or Dame Edna? I reckon all of them have enough charm, wit and sense of humor to appear as hosts in the Kodak Theatre.
