They are. Manwë thought they'd need all the help they could get (them going to the East and all), so he gave them the special ability to look hot. Always helpful to have a flock of fangirls at your call in enemy territory.
But, as I said before, they were lost. Men and directions . . .
But I believe Saruman made the story up: He really pushed them in some random ditch. He wanted to be the hottest Istar in Middle-earth, so he got rid of the competition.
On the onset, that Saruman guy really has some issues.
Speculating on the fate of the Blue Wizards . . . looks like a good Mirth topic.
