Sir Bob Geldof, organizer of Live AID and Live 8, has been voted the
best celebrity dad in an online poll.

The Irish star received 23% of the total vote in the poll, conducted
by website remind4u.com.

Geldof, father of Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches and Pixie, won the
admiration of voters for adopting the orphaned daughter of his late
ex-wife Paula Yates and her deceased rock star lover Michael
Hutchence.

Geldof's adoration for his girls and fierce protectiveness earned him
first place ahead of England football ace David Beckham, who scooped
second spot with 20% of the votes.

Geldof is also an active fathers' rights spokesperson in the United
Kingdom. He has urged courts to consider the rights of Fathers when
considering the custody of children.

The online greeting card site quizzed members of the public on which
celebrity fathers best juggled their super-stardom with top parenting
skills, and almost one in four voters picked Geldof.

David Beckham, Jonathan Ross, Chris Martin, Brad Pitt, and Beatles
legend Sir Paul McCartney, all of which were at Live 8, made the top
ten.

Survey spokeswoman Rachel Corcoran said: "It's about time Britain's
Dads received some recognition for their hard work - and so the
public has voted!"
