Pageant Freak is back :)
Mister Universe Model has really made my year! The contestants were decent, the coverage was good, the finalists were fantastic and the skin shown was enough to keep me erect for the next month!
If anybody knows where I can watch the pageant please tell me :)
Very few pageants have actually provided such a good bunch of finalists, yes there were at least 2 who I'd like to have seen in the semis and one sad omission from the top 5 but besides that everything went smoothly.
Anyway here's the results...
WINNER: Bosnia and Herzegovina - Tarik Kaljanac
So so happy, He was definitely my favourite, he's just GOT the package
1st Runner Up: Chile - Leo Opazo
Go Chile! Wasn't expecting this but I love Chile! He was my third favourite.
2nd Runner Up: Belgium - Tuur Roels
Go Belgium! Woohoo! I love Belgium! He was my fourth favourite. Just such a cheeky but cute guy :)
3rd Runner Up: Venezuela - Edgar Moreno
WOW! This gets better and better. I thought he'd be 1st Runner Up but anyway he was my fifth favourite - if 4th Runner Up was Canada I think I wouldn't be able to sleep... BUT
4th Runner Up: Cyprus - Christos Christodoulides
Oh, I didn't expect this nor was he one of my favourites. I think he is definitely hot but he did nothing for me tbh and I didn't expect him to take over France - who I always compared him with because they evoked the same kind of vibe to me. Anyway that's Ok at least he's HOT.
Top 15 Semifinalists
I'm a bit confused, I thought there were only 12 semifinalists? Anyway...
Argentina: Daniel Fernandez Del Castano
I knew he was in for a shot, not in my selection though.
Brazil: Daniel De Jesus
He's Ok, don't really know whether I was expecting it or not.
Canada: Matt Aymar
very sad that he didn't make the Top 5, he's just so dreamy! Anyway at least he made the semifinal.
Denmark: Anders Houmann
Wasn't expecting this! I kind of grouped him with Australia and USA, the smily guys who look a bit more mature, and I thought out of the 3 he had the smallest chance of making it.
Dominican Republic: Ostwal Gonzalez
I think I was somewhat expecting this but seeing it officially is still kind of a shock.
France: Dadou Otman
He gets him for his physique alone. He was in my Top 12 btw.
Honduras: Carlos Orantes
Wasn't expecting this but I can see why he got in.
Puerto Rico: Martin Morales
Yep definitely, he's such a cute guy, his modelling chops are also FAB!
Saona Island: Alexander de los Santos
Yeah! Love Saona Island, even though I have no idea where it is - must be Caribbean right?
Switzerland: Sebastian Bossert
Wasn't expecting this. Anyway that rounds of the semifinalists and whilst not all were in my list at least the ones chosen are relatively good looking (because there were a few bad looking guys in the bunch)
Special Awards
Best Body: Venezeula - Edgar Moreno
nods in appreciation
Best in National Costume: Bolivia - Francisco Torrico
but we didn't even get to see his face :(
Didn't really like any of them anyway
Mr. Internet: Bosnia and Herzegovina - Tarik Kaljanac
nods in appreciation
Mr. Photogenic: Mexico - Andree Baeza
The only award I totally disagree on, I think it should have been Bosnia and Herzegovina as I haven't seen a single picture where I was disappointed with his looks
Mr. Elegance: Australia - Tim Boulenger
what was this based on
Mr. Friendship: Armenia - Movses Eremyan
I guess, don't know do I
Those that Should have made it:
This list is quite small because many of my favourites got in, unlike in most other pageants where I can at least rattle off 10 names (cough cough Mr World - the weirdest finalists group ever). In fact there's only 1 in this group who I was really quite disappointed when they didn't make it and that was Austria.
Australia
I like his vibe, he seems like a charming man and fun to be around with.
Austria
At times he looked a bit like a teenager but his modelling chops are just so so good and he's so cute.
Costa Rica
I grew to like him more and more as I began to notice him.
Spain
I knew he wasn't going to get in but I liked him - boy next door
Those that I thought would make it:
Ecuador
I really thought Ecuador was going to make it because of his smile.
Guadeloupe
I just thought there was going to be somebody of African descent and he was the more likely out of the two.
Mexico
After winning Mr. Photogenic I thought he was a shoo-in but obviously not. But thank god he wasn't.
USA
As I said I grouped him with Denmark and Australia. I thought one of the 3 was going to get in, obviously it was Denmark.
Overall I'm really happy with the results. Mister Universe Model has provided me with so much enjoyment throughout the past few weeks, I'm beginning to fall in love with male pageantry. I wish the pre pageant favourite, Italy, also competed though.
God, this brings me back to the disappointing Mr. World where so many hot guys didn't make it... Columbia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Poland, Romania, Serbia, South Africa, Spain and Sweden to name a few. Mister International Manhunt International to go!
