Jesse a big hit (News.com.au 26 Feb 2006)

US sex symbol Jesse Metcalfe proved such a hit with Sydney women he needed a team of minders to ward off admirers.

"We love you, Jesse," screamed dozens of female fans, who whistled for the Desperate Housewives hunk when he toured Sydney last week.

At Bondi, he almost caused a mini-riot when he stripped down to his boardshorts to enjoy the sunshine, showing off the six-pack that has become world famous through his role as gardener John Rowlands in the hit Seven Network series.

First stop was lunch on Campbell Parade, then a stroll along the sand taking in the sun ? but not the surf. Despite the summer temperatures, Metcalfe chose to keep his torso dry.

Yesterday, the actor was all dressed up for a day out at Sydney's Rosehill Racecourse.

Metcalfe, 27, spent the afternoon punting on the horses with his new mate, ad man John Singleton and his pregnant wife, Julie.
"He thinks the girls are beautiful," confirmed Mrs Singleton, who admitted she had "no idea" who Metcalfe was when she met him yesterday morning.

"I've never watched the show but he is a lovely kid. A girlfriend said I would know who he was if he took his top off."

Metcalfe, who also appeared at the Desperate and Dateless Ball at Luna Park last night, has been making women swoon since arriving in Sydney on Wednesday.

"The women just keep going wild," boasted his minder Todd Tanguay, "and he is always finding romance."

Singleton's actress daughter, Sally, was the most envied woman in Sydney on Friday night when she took him on an impromptu tour of fashionable nightspots.

Yesterday Metcalfe visited Singleton's farm on the central coast, where he checked out the wildlife.

He was due to leave Sydney this morning.
