Idris Elba and Michael Rosen voted ‘My Hairy Valentines’ 2022
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has announced the results of its annual search for My Hairy Valentine ahead of Valentine’s Day on 14th February.
This year it has been refocused to include two categories:
1 Beards that are sexy, allowing for the reality that this is in the eye of the beholder
2 Beards that are loved because they add a reassuring presence to public life and should be celebrated.
A round of on-line polling covered each category with the winners of both contests sharing the title in 2022.
In the beards that are loved category author Michael Rosen narrowly shaved England cricketer Moeen Ali. In the beards that are sexy round actor Idris Elba won out over ex-footballer and actor Eric Cantona
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, Valentine’s day is all about love and we think beards are lovely and to be loved. Of course how sexy or loved a beard is remains in the eye of the beholder but we congratulate Idris Elba and Michael Rosen on their 2022 titles
