Transman Cliks Lead Singer Lucas Silveira Wins Canada's Sexiest Male Rocker Poll

Out transman and Cliks lead singer Lucas Silveira has won an interesting poll of the readers of Chart Attack, which bills itself as Canada's premiere music magazine. Via After Ellen:

Lucas Silveira, the openly transgender lead singer of Toronto alt-rock band The Cliks, became the first transman to win the "Throw Your Underwear Award Male" (Sexiest Canadian Man) in the year end reader's poll from Chart Attack, Canada's premier music magazine. And while the long list of musical Canadian hotties might have several less familiar names to Americans, Silveira did narrowly beat out Avril Lavigne's ex, Deryck Whibley of Sum 41.

Here's Silveira's excellent acoustic cover of Lady Gaga.
