LAURIE TAKES UP BOXING TO RETAIN SEXY IMAGE

HOUSE star HUGH LAURIE has taken up boxing in a bid to retain his title of America's sexiest man. The British actor was awarded the prestigious title by influential U.S. magazine TV Guide for his role in the hit drama series, and is determined to hang on to the accolade. Laurie is adopting a gruelling regime of work-out sessions and finds boxing to be the most effective method of keeping in shape, but insists he is yet to fully perfect his technique. He says, "It is fascinating. I swank around thinking I am a big cheese, but you do not feel like that when you are in the ring with a chap who knows what he is doing."
