Hi, back again to post about pageants. This year was the first year I focused on looking up on male pageants, it was definitely a fun experience! By the 4 big pageants I mean Mister World, Mister International, Manhunt International and the disputed Mister Universe Model. I think Mister Universe Model deserves to be up in this spot because of the quality of the contestants. I have 60 guys to present to you! 30 are honourable mentions unranked whilst the remaining 30 are ranked to give you an idea who I thought were the best of the best. Let the countdown begin!

Now let the real show begin! If only these guys all competed at the same pageant!

I'll be the first to admit, Yahya looked like a sunbed victim in the competition, he didn't stand out because of that but I'm just left wondering how strong he would have been if his skin tone was a little more natural. He has a vast array of modelling photos and most of them are very good.

This guy was a dark horse for the win at Mister World, he managed to place in the Top 15 which was a deserved placement. Alvaro is a good looking guy but for some reason he doesn't stand out. I think it's because his features are quite common but nonetheless he is still a hot candidate.

Willem is a classic handsome guy, he has a very nice smile which brightens up any day and still looks sweet when he doesn't smile. I would like to have seen more of him but sadly my knowledge of his existence lies mainly within the test shots he has done in the past, he did come 2nd in Mister World Talent with his piano playing though.

I fell in love with this guy through his photos, his eyes are just quite breathtaking. I was slightly perturbed by his interview video but for now he still makes my Top 30, unless I see more unsatisfactory candid pictures.

God I ask myself why this guy slipped through my radar. I totally missed him in Mister World. Decent looks, check, hot physique, check, nice eyes, check and from what I've read he's also very tall at 6'5'', though saying that there were a good handful of guys at 6'5'' and above in Mister World this year. He also seems to be quite a star in his native Romania

Finally a guy that actually placed! He made the Top 10 at Mister International. Jordan straddles that fine line between Naughty lad and Twink which makes him all the more adorable. He is a little rough around the edges, which actually suits his whole appearance.

Leo Opazo has that innate Latin charm about him. I first fell in love with this guy seeing the photo of him sleeping, that was just so cute. He made the 1st Runner Up position at Mister Universe model, a great feat considering there were 4 or 5 worthy winners in that group.

Another guy that was totally blanked by Mister World, though I do think he wasn't seen enough in the competition. But in my opinion the Top 5 list at Mister World was quite a weird bunch, have you spotted that only one of them has made my Top 60 list! Unless I loved them so much I put them in my Top 16! I don't think so. Anyway Dino is such a hot guy, drooling looking at him already, shame we didn't see that much of him.

Ok what is it with me with liking guys that failed to make the Top 15/16? Or should I say what is it with pageants for disregarding these guys? I admit I've always been biased towards Asian guys (and black woman actually) but I personally think Hoang Gia Ngoc was one of the best Asian guys this year! What he does need to do is get a good hairstyle, the one in the portrait looks odd.

Bogdan was the unexpected favourite of Manhunt International. Pre-pageant we were all crazy over the battle of the titans, Peter Menky Vs Marlon Di Gregori but suddenly Bogdan came in to disrupt proceedings. He has a hot body and is undeniably cute but something distracts me about his looks, he's still a hot hot candidate but I wouldn't call him the face of Manhunt International 2010. Also I wanted to add, the guy that shares the exact same name as him (well at least google images says so) looks hotter than him! lol

If I had to chose one guy I was most disappointed with not making the Top 15/16 of a pageant it would be Guillermo Garcia. That's because it was not only disappointing it was also a shock, I had him headed towards the Top 15 and even the Top 6 for Mister World. Mister Spain is already quite a prestigious title in itself so to not make the Top 15/16 is just utterly disappointing. He looks so good in a suit as well, perfect mix of charm, personality, intelligence and looks. One word suave!

What I love about Vasa is that he is so damn SEXY! and he isn't afraid to embrace that and go a little crazy and OTT with it! God I just want to touch him all over! oops Rated 18 stuff! It was quite obvious he wasn't right for Mister World, he should have gone to Mister Universe Model, the pageant hags there would have licked him up in no time! lol

Edgar's a difficult one, I myself didn't really like him the first time I saw his photos but there was a turning point with him, suddenly he became part of my favourites. I think it has to do with his confidence and charm, he carries himself so well. You also can't deny he has got an awesome body!

Ryan's body is crazy! I think out of any candidate this year he has the most toned body out of them all! Now that's saying something. He's also the quintessential British hunk with the lad personality but with a sweet and charming side to him as well. He definitely deserved to win the Mister International title. 

Tuur Roels just leaves me wanting more! Essentially I love him because he looks like a great guy to be around with, he seems to have a great personality and likes to enjoy himself, on top of that he has a great smile. Most guys in my list have the body as well as the looks so it's also important to be able to stand out with your charm.

I thought long and hard about this. Originally Peter Menky was in my top 5 but minutes before writing this post I dropped him down. Peter Menky is HOT he has the perfect look and an awesome body but what I don't see is that smile. I didn't know I was such a hag for smiles before but when I reviewed the guys one of the essential things which seemed to separate them was guys with great smiles and guys who didn't. Maybe I didn't pay enough attention at Manhunt International but I don't remember ever seeing him smile like that of say Marlon Di Gregori. Peter Menky will still be one of my favourites, he may in fact jump back into the Top 5 later but at the moment I place him 6th.

What makes you a Top 5 for me? Well surely making a little hot and sweaty is one way to make the Top 5 list and Voljen does that, in fact all my Top 5 do that! Whenever I see Voljen's pictures I literally start foaming at the mouth! OK just kidding. I'm so annoyed I didn't catch more of him because I rushed through Manhunt International but every time I see Voljen I want him a little bit more so don't be surprised if he starts breaking into the Top 3 in my list.

Matt Aymar is just breathtaking. You can't deny he's one of the most gorgeous guys this year. And whenever he flashes that smile he looks oh so cute. His body is a little square though but it's still damn hot. There's a video of him on youtube where you can see the hotness in action! I also get more attracted to guys if I can communicate with them, I don't know it's just my thing.

Marlon is just amazing! I will forever remember him as Mister Smiles as his smile is just so memorably cute. And those legs phwoar! That body! He only made 2nd Runner Up at Manhunt International though, shame, but he did seem to lose a bit of momentum. Brazil definitely know how to raise their men!

Jonas "the god" Sulzbach, oh how you were so robbed at Mister World. He just makes me hot and sweaty every time I see his "the boy" photos. Jonas straddles the line between hunk and twink perfectly, he just drives me wild with his look, body, personality, smile, sex appeal, charisma... he just has everything! But who managed to beat him to number 1 spot!

TARIK KALJANAC! My ultimate favourite. From the very beginning of Mister Universe Model I had my eyes on him, he just gets better and better every time I see a photo of him. He has an awesome body, an awesome look, awesome smile and awesome everything I bet! He's also one of the few guys who seems to have a lot of photos on the internet allowing me to drool over him even more! lol. Where do Bosnia and Herzegovina get these guys from, do all men look like Tarik and Voljen in Bosnia?

This year was definitely the year of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Belgium and Slovak Republic. Hope they continue their good streak!
