Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise has been named the world's sexiest "small man".

The 5 foot 7 inches Mission Impossible actor, who is dwarfed by his wife Katie Holmes and ex Nicole Kidman, beat TV presenter Richard Hammond and Take That star Mark Owen to take the top spot in the online poll carried out by onepoll.com.

Also in the top ten sexiest small males were Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton, jazz star Jamie Cullum, actor James McAvoy, and soccer ace Michael Owen.

John Sewell, of polling website onepoll.com says, "It gives short guys hope."
