While we are all busy watching and awaiting the results of the Miss World 2013 Top Model event last night, a different kind of eye candy event was happening at the World Trade Center in Pasay City. And don’t be surprised why a flood of good-looking men is suddenly distracting your attention from beauty pageants. I’ve been featuring the bash since 2009 – only one of a few male-studded events I give in to – so the 2013 edition won’t go unnoticed.

The annual Cosmo Bachelor Bash got underway without a hitch as this year’s yummiest hunks and celebrities strutted the runway to the total shrieking adulation of the audience – predominantly girls and gays (including peppermints for sure). The likes of Matteo Guidicelli, Alden Richards, Tom Rodriguez, Dennis Trillo, JC de Vera, brothers Rodjun and Rayver Cruz, Sam Concepcion and Aljur Abrenica fulfilled a good bit of the spectators’ fantasies while still leaving more to imagine about in their own private moments. ;-)

The invites come with a price, though. But if you have a friend, sister or colleague who plans to do an honest-to-goodness shopping spree in Bench one of these days, then you might be able to score one – a Lower Box location hopefully. Otherwise, you will need to buy a lot of their reasonably-priced merchandise. Just make sure you throw in a Bench Body underwear or a pair of OJ denims for good measure.

Check out the mechanics below. It works like the last one – Bench Universe – back in 2012.

And I can assure you. It’ll be worth every peso you spend on Bench. This year, especially. Check out the other sizzling promo teasers for the denim and underwear show HERE. ;-)

Last Friday, an exclusive preview was held for the Press to drum up “The Naked Truth”, the Bench Denim and Underwear Show scheduled on September 19 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.

Present were some of the celebrities who will walk the ramp wearing the latest collection in the clothing brand’s OJ Denim and Bench Body lines. The likes of actors Tom Rodriguez, Dennis Trillo, Martin del Rosario and Dominic Roque graced the event, as well as singer and indie performer Markki Stroem, athlete Arnold Van Opstal, international model Allison Harvard and Miss World 1st Runner-up Gwen Ruais.

The show will try to raise the bar for 2014 by pushing the envelope in the show’s concept and revelations. And it would be an understatement to say that this is going to be the hottest ticket to get a hold of.

So if I were you, I’d start shopping (splurging if you will) at Bench to receive an invite. ;-)

Trust Ms. Cory Quirino to fill the SM Mall of Asia Arena for the Coronation Night of Miss World Philippines 2014 on October 12. While the Official Candidates have not yet been announced – let alone screened – she will definitely undertake to make this year her biggest production for the nationals. With the outgoing titleholder being Miss World 2013 Megan Young, there is simply no room for a ho-hum conduct of the finals.

And with GMA-7’s help, the pageant will definitely get a boost in terms of scope and coverage. Do I see Mikael Daez (Megan’s rumored boyfriend) solo-hosting? I doubt it, but if he is joined by Tom Rodriguez and Carla Abellana, why not?

Watch out for my coverage of Miss World Philippines 2014 starting very soon! :-D

An army of scantily-clad models invaded the Arena

Let’s be honest.

Nobody braved the big crowds at the SM MOA Arena last just to watch celebrities and models wearing the latest in denim fashion. Bench knows – and You & I know – that everyone is looking forward to the more daring souls who stripped to their skimpiest bikinis and underwear and walked the huge stage with pride and a whiff of Eau de Toilette behind their ears.

And the roars and excitement couldn’t be more felt when hot male celebrities like Tom Rodriguez and the first-ever-underwear-exposing Dennis Trillo took to the ramp and raised the temperature to boiling levels.

Of course, nobody can’t deny Bench veteran Jake Cuenca the spotlight in wearing the practically-nothing-to-hide garter-filled-with-just-a-small-pouch thingy that was to be his signature curtain call before retiring from the once-every-two-years affair. His body may not be in the best shape, but his confidence (and exhibition-savvy) onstage remains unparalleled.

And these will be the crowns of MWP2013 and her four Princesses.

The Coronation Night of Miss World Philippines 2013 is almost set.

The venue will be neatly arranged like the photo above which is inside the huge Grand Ballroom of Solaire Resort and Casino. GMA-7 will be airing and Rico Gutierrez directing.

The hosts are ready, with KC Montero, Victor Basa and Carla Abellana onstage. MW2011 Gwen Ruais will be the anchor. Special guest performers will be Dennis Trillo and Tom Rodriguez of “My Husband’s Lover” fame.

And one of the 25 Official Candidates will come out victorious. She will be instantly swept off her feet for the nearing departure date for Indonesia.

And I am excited. Are you, dear readers?Image may be NSFW.

Miss World 2013 Megan Young is now a Primetime Lead Actress as the new MariMar

Miss World 2013 Megan Young is now a Primetime Lead Actress as the new MariMar

Miss World 2013 Megan Young has now officially entered a new phase in her life as a celebrity. After the recent announcement of the cast members of GMA-7’s remake of MariMar, she has been ushered in to the role of a Primetime lead starrer that will pair her with Hunk actor Tom Rodriguez.

It remains to be seen how she will approach the role made famous by Mexican actress Thalia and the beautiful Marian Rivera. But based on the video clip below, she still wants to inject her own brand of charm for the role so as not to be totally compared with her predecessors. She will definitely watch the original and the first local remake, but just so that she will get a good feel of what the role will fully require of her.

Best of luck in this new chapter in your career, Megan!😀

Miss World 2013 Megan Young is a happy MariMar. The pilot episode of her show was on top of the Philippine-trending hashtags (#MariMar2015) last night. And pending the release of actual TV ratings from AGB Nielsen and Kantar, it should have posted healthy numbers alongside the competition.

Megan and leading man Tom Rodriguez would like to thank everyone for the support and are asking for the continued support of the show on GMA-7 every night after 24Oras.

Thumbs up to the new MariMar!😀
