They’re all vegans . . . and deemed to be very attractive to boot.
And now the 30-year-old has beat off numerous other entrants to become one of seven male finalists in PETA UK and Ireland’s Hottest Vegan Competition 2017.
Neil is an HGV driver and a passionate Save Movement activist.
A vegan for six months, he said: “After talking to a friend and watching the documentary Earthlings, I was awakened to the harm and injustice of the meat industry.
“I made a decision overnight that I wanted no part in it. Six months on, I’m absolutely loving life. I’ve been travelling, meeting loads of cool people and constantly talking about veganism.”
PETA director Elisa Allen added: “Vegans are, on average, slimmer and healthier and have more energy than their meat-eating peers – plus, there’s nothing hotter than compassion.
“Each one of the finalists in PETA’s contest is a testament to how sexy vegans are – inside and out.”
Neil is up against six other ‘hot’ vegans, including fitness instructor Mark and school teacher Dinarte.
He is competing to win an eight-course vegan taster menu for two at top London restaurant Gauthier Soho as well as the prestigious title, which last year went to a firefighter.
Meanwhile seven girls are also in the running to be chosen as the hottest female vegan.
