We have done so many of the interviews and speeches from Sunset on the Beach lately to update our archives and I thought that it might be a fun idea to let you all choose which look of Alex at SOTB over the years, did you like best. With it I have some trivia just for some added fun. Hope you enjoy it and also the pictures that were chosen – most of them for a specific reason. (And remember to click on them to see them better)
SOTB Season 1
(13 September 2010)
- Clothes: Alex was dressed in a black suit with a white open neck shirt without a tie.
- Assisting Alex on the red carpet: Diana Jackson his PA at that time.
- Family and Friends: At the first SOTB Alex was accompanied by his girlfriend that he had at that time, actress Amber Clayton.
- Fellow Cast & their families: All the main cast members, Scott, Daniel and Grace were there, as well as Taryn Manning. (There is not a lot of footage available, and I am therefore not sure who else attended.)
SOTB Season 2
(10 September 2011)
- Clothes: A dark suit with a dark shirt and no tie. And a white pocket-handkerchief.
- Assisting Alex on the red carpet: Diana Jackson his PA at that time.
- Family & Friends: Alex did not bring any recognisable guests, but his friend and stand-in double Sam Gould sat with him.
- Fellow Cast & their families: Scott attended with his girlfriend Kacy, Daniel was there with his wife Mia and the children, Grace was there with her husband Phil. Masi Oka and Lauren German also attended.
SOTB Season 3
(23 September 2012)
- Clothes: This year Alex chose a light grey suit with a white shirt and a brown pocket-handkerchief with white dots.
- Assisting Alex on the red carpet: Kristen Rowsey was Alex’s PA at the time.
- Family & Friends: He attended with Malia who was far along in her pregnancy with Lion and her son Spike, and a number of her family (including Malia’s father and stepmother, and also her brother Daniel and his wife Natalie). And of course at the time Saxon also stayed in Hawaii and attended the event with them as well.
- Fellow Cast & their families: At the time, Scott was not there, because his mother passed away during that week (but Kacy attended). Grace was also not there. But Daniel and his wife Mia as well as Masi Oka and Michelle Borth attended.
SOTB Season 4
(26 September 2013)
- Clothes: Dark Grey suit with a white shirt and a tie (it is rather easy to spot the pictures from this SOTB, as it was the only time that Alex wore a tie. I loved it!)
- Assisting Alex on the red carpet: Kristen Rowsey was still Alex’s PA at the time
- Family & Friends: Alex attended with Malia and Spike and Malia’s father.
- Fellow Cast & their families: As usual Daniel and his wife Mia attended, but neither Scott nor Grace was at the event – Grace was pregnant at the time. This was of course the first year that Chi McBride attended as part of the team. Michelle Borth was also there.

SOTB Season 5
(13 September 2014)
- Clothes: This year Alex chose a dark suit with a dark open neck shirt.
- Family & Friends: Malia and Spike.
- Fellow Cast & their families: This year the main cast were back again in full force with Scott and Grace back at the event. Grace brought her husband again this time. As usual Mia was there with Daniel. And of course Chi and Jorge.

SOTB Season 6
(12 September 2015)
- Clothes: Dark suit with a shade of blue and a dark open neck shirt.
- Family & Friends: Malia and her brother Daniel attended with Alex
- Fellow Cast & their families: As usual Daniel was there with wife Mia, but this time Grace was there without her husband. And then of course Chi and Jorge. Interesting to see that a second year in a row, Peter Lenkov’s wife Audie, also attended (sitting next to Malia in the front row)
SOTB Season 7
(23 September 2016)
- Clothes: Once again Alex chose a dark suit, but this time with V-neck black sweater.
- Assisting Alex on the red carpet: Ryan
- Family and Friends: Malia attended with Alex.
- Fellow Cast & their families: Not many pictures of the cast available, but we know that Scott was there with Kacy. And as usual Daniel and his wife Mia attended with Chi and Jorge as well.
SOTB Season 8
(10 November 2017)
- Clothes: This time Alex wore a dark suit again, but with a round neck black sweater.
- Assisting Alex on the red carpet: Ryan
- Family & Friends: As with most of the other stars, Alex did not bring any guests this year.
- Fellow Cast & their families: Most of the stars (Scott, Chi, Meaghan, Anthony and Jorge) attended alone, apart from Beulah who brought his wife.
- Link to speech: #AlexOLoughlin and #H50 – Sunset On The Beach (#8)
Each and every year Alex looked like a star and gave his very best to the fans and also his colleagues.
Which year was your favourite for the way Alex dressed?
Great article! Thanks for sharing! I love your blog! I know you focus on Alex but I was wondering if you have pics of Kacy from the events or others?

Hi Noemie,
I rarely save any pictures of the others – as you said, they are not our focus. Just saving all of Alex’s pictures is a daunting task already – and to save them in a way to actually find them again quickly is even a bigger task. So you will understand that it will just be too much to try and save pictures of them all, if we rarely use them in any case.
I guess there might be sites for Scott who will have some, or otherwise just google Scott Caan and Kacy at SOTB and you will find plenty.

I’m always in awe of your archive and how you’re able to find any requests in such short period of time. can’t you come over to my work place and help organise our picture bank? maybe slide in a couple of Alex pics while you’re at it. ….? …..

Unfortunately it is not organizational skills that are good at all, but my head is full of memories of where and when I got something and saved it.
If you look at my computer, you would not think it is organized at all. So me organizing somebody elses stuff, would be a total fail.
My biggest frustrations is when I know I do have something, but I can’t find it!
I am sure not a million pictures can compare with seeing him in person and actually touching him. And there you have a BIG advantage over me 🙂

I am amazed that you can keep such a huge number of photos in so orderly a fashion to be able to find what you are looking for right away. I admire organization since I am perpetually disorganized.
Thank you.

I can promise you my organizational skills are bad. I do have some sort of system, but I fail to keep with it when I am in a hurry and then I loose things.

love them all, I can’t pick just one! Alex and Malia look particularly stunning at the Season Seven SOTB. Thank you for posting all of them, so we can see the cast members through the years at each year’s event. Alex looks absolutely gorgeous every year. He’s utter perfection.

They’re all good, but I voted for season 1 because you can’t go wrong with a dark suit and white shirt. 😍💋

I voted for the SOTB 4. I was torn between that and 3 but I think 4 was just a bit better.
And since you did not ask, I think 6 was the worst. It was almost as if the Aloha vibe was already dying and it was at the end of S7 that it became apparent to me why I had felt that way.

I voted for season 6 because I was there and it was my first time seeing this gorgeous man in person. *THUD* BTW Alex is so much more handsome in person then pics can capture. ♥ I know crazy but TRUE. ♥ I hope I get another chance to see him in person again…someday. ♥ If not, it’s still OK because I ticked off this special box on my Bucket List. ♥

I like the black on black look the best and my judgement is colored because I attended that SOTB, so my favorite is S 5. However S3 alex is beaming, his happiness is making him look better than ever, so I do like that as well. Thank you girls for this great start of the weekend!

Alex looks gorgeous in a suit, a pair of jeans and a T-shirt, a tuxedo or a potatoes sack. Or nothing. How to choose? But I’ve voted for #6 because dark clothes enhance his complexion. FOYeur, what kind of storage do you have in your computer? It must be bursting with Alex pics!

Yes, as suit suits him 😀
Do not need as much storage as Paula – she needs to make screenshots for all the gifs she makes – and that takes up a lot of space. And also the beautiful art she creates with Alex, in what she calls her doodles of him. All that requires a lot more space than what I need 🙂

First, thanks for all the great Pics, from the different SOTB’s. I love them all.
And i voted for season 3 because this SOTB has remained in a very special memory. It was the year I met Alex at the set of H5-0. The brief conversation and the following photo with him has fulfilled a dream of mine and forever remains unforgotten. And ten days later, he recognized me at the SOTB and greeted me with a hi.That’s why this particular SOTB has remained in my memory and I still think Alex looked pretty good in his gray suit.

I love your polls! What a creative idea. I had a hard time choosing, but I like 3 and 6. Whether he’s dressed up or dressed down, he is handsome! (and it’s not the clothes that count, it’s the man!)
