Egypt's Karim Jamal El Din flaunts his bulge at Mister International 2009

Still with the ongoing Mister International in Taiwan, I can't stop myself from making a post about Mister Egypt Karim Jamal El Din. I had the urge to give him attention by featuring this descendant of pharaohs in my blog when I saw a revealing picture of him showing his bulge so bravely. I know you gonna droooolll, you gays and gals out there!

First of all, you have to excuse me for the choice of words I gonna use in this entry. How can I force myself in behaving well when I can't compose myself because Karim is all of sudden a subject of my wildest sexual fantasy? Damn, I am so in love with him now.

In a twist of luck, this Egyptian hunk looks so gorgeous to me now. In the last few days, I never expected him to shine in this pageant because his looks is so common in the Arab world where most of the men are regarded as the most handsome people on earth. Yeah, right! I have been living in the Middle East for the last 5 years, I have seen all types of Arab guys, dark and white, and Karim is so ordinary looking. There are actually more handsome Egyptian men by miles than Karim. Egypt, next time, send your Pharaohs, I mean the stunning guys out there, to compete next year.

In fairness to Karim (if you happen to read this, please still love me), he looks so hot in this photo not to mention his obviously big size down there - ohhh, you know what I a mean! Here's the photo I am talking about.

See?! I told you. That picture is one of the few good photos of Karim from the competition. I hope he will enter the finals though I feel it's hard for him to grab a spot.

But knowing the mentality of Asians or the Taiwanese in particular who will be judges in this competition, there is a possibility Karim will place. Why did I say so? Because Asians (from the Far East) consider Arab men hot and gorgeous - if not all at least the majority will agree.

It would have been better for Karim if he has shaved his body hair. He looks so untidy with all those hair all over his body so I guess it was a wrong decision to keep them and flaunt them in the competition.

The pictures you have just seen are taken during the official swimsuit photoshoot where the contestants were asked to wear a Speedo.

Originally, Karim was not in my list, he was an alternative, but after seeing his bulge in that white trunks, I am elevating him now as one of my Final Top 10 together with Vietnam's Le Xuan Vinh Thuy.

Come back for the other 8. I will feature them before the awarding night on December 19.

Vietnam's Le Xuan Vinh Thuy chances at Mister International 2009

Just in case you don't know yet, Mister International 2009 pageant is having its grand finals on December 19 - that is 2 days from now - in Taiwan. There's no enough time for me to assess all the delegates to come up with my prediction list. Instead, I will give you the Top 5 hunks who I think has the big chance of making to the finals.

Mister Vietnam Le Xuan Vinh Thuy is one of the lads who I want to see in the finals. I guess, this guy has the best body among all the candidates. He has also the best set of eyes. They're fierce yet so divine. It's undeniably that Vinh Thuy is one of the front-runners in this competition and he might give his country a back-to-back win. The winner last year is Ngo Tien Doan who hails also from Vietnam.

If Ngo Tien Doan is what I considered the ugliest winner of any male pageants I have ever seen in my life, this year's Vietnam's representative is the exact opposite. So, if Vinh Thuy will win Mister International 2009, a second time for Vietnam, I will have no qualms at all. I can celebrate.

But Vinh Thuy is not yet perfect whether you admit it or not. There are still pictures of him, especially in candid shots, where he looks like just a common Chinese or Vietnamese guy you see everywhere in the streets or in public places. And what I don't like about the guy is his hair. Honestly, he has a very bad hairstyling. My God, they say that the hair is our crown glory so he has to do something about it. Sometimes, it looks like a bird's nest. It makes his head too big like a hydrocephalus. Admit that!

Overall, the guy still has what it takes to land a spot in the finals. A Top 5 finish is not impossible but I don't see him sweeping the title.

Here are some of Vinh Thuy's glamour shots.

First blog entry: Mister International 2009

I am welcoming everyone in my blog. I am a big fan of beauty pageants and this is the main factor that pushed me to start writing down my random thoughts on the world of pageantry.

Since the 4th Mister International is currently undertaking in Taiwan, I take this topic as my first blog entry.

This is the Mister International so don't confused this one with another male pageant that has the same name. The other one is MR. International while this pageant is MISTER International. Did you get the difference?

Though both pageants sound exactly the same, the difference is how the word Mister or Mr is spelled.

Mr. International started in India in 1998 but after 2003, the pageant disappeared mysteriously. All the pageant editions except in 2003 were held in India. In 2003, it was held in London or outside India for the first time. Since then, it is not been held.

Mister International, on the other hand, is based in Singapore. It premiered in 2006 in Singapore City with Lebanon's Wissam Hanna as the first winner.

Here are some pictures of the hunks competing for Mister International 2009.
