When Ethan Lovett first came to Port Charles, we weren’t even sure if the actor was really Australian. In fact, some fans rejected Ethan from the start. The same could be said for his brother Lucky, who seemed to hate him on sight. Over time, Ethan has managed to form bonds with Lucky and the rest of the Spencer clan and melt our hearts at the same time. Nathan Parsons is not only easy on the eyes, but incredibly enjoyable to watch. It helps that his character brings a lightness to GH that is sometimes necessary. Did we mention he is HOT?

That Nathan Parsons continues to grow on me. Here he is helping out the folks at Habitat for Humanity…

I happened to be watching the CMT awards the other night and Keith Urban was performing and it occurred to me that he is beyond amazing, and, he is Australian. This got me thinking about the Aussie’s that grace our screens in Daytime. This is dedicated to their awesomeness!

Daniel Goddard is probably the most recognized Aussie on daytime. As Cane Ashby, he has won our hearts with his sweet nothings and tenderness. His accent helps too!

Ingo Radamacher is also very recognized. As Jasper “Jax” Jacks on General Hospital, we love that he can be both sweet, and evil, sometimes at the same time!

Paul Leyden also hails from down under. He plays Simon on As The World Turns. While I didn’t watch the show, it is very clear to me that he is one Aussie Hottie!

Nathan Parsons as Ethan Lovett had us questioning if he really was from Australia. Mush Mouth doesn’t seem appropriate anymore as he is not faking his accent!

Tammin Sursock is also from Australia, but hides her accent when acting. Who knew right? As Colleen Carlton on The Young and The Restless, Tammin was feisty, and even stood up to Victor Newman. She will be missed!

Those are just a few Aussie’s that are gracing our screens. Let us not forget other great Aussie’s like, Olivia Newton-John, Heath Ledger, Cate Blanchett, Kylie Minogue, Elle Macpherson, and newcomer, Anna Torv who is currently on Fringe!

All of this Aussie Awesomeness makes me want to go down under asap!
