In some pageants, he is known as Jeru Bautista. In others, Andrew Bautista. Sometimes, he is Jesrael Bautista. Whatever his real name is, this guy’s all around the male bikini pageant circuit, and he is one hot and flawless chinito! Too, Jeru is reportedly a chef! Now, this one makes a fine Pinoy version of the Naked Chef. The really naked chef.

Jon Mullally booming
Enough of the sleaze first. How about Jon Mullally aka Jon Avila for today? After signing up last year with Star Magic, ABS-CBN’s network-based talent agency, Jon seemed to have made a successful transition from the runway to the telly. As a chunky-hunky part of that all-boys sing-and-dance group called Coverboys, Jon will soon fly to the U.S. for a concert tour [gasp!]. Too, he has his own superhero series on his home studio, Kapitan Boom. Which only proves that talent and/or connections and/or perseverance make up for good showbiz success.
Charming: Earl Zanoria
TGIF! Our man for today is 22-year-old Earl Zanoria, one of the 69 hot, new bachelors of Cosmopolitan Philippines magazine in 2007 [“likes snuggling while watching tv at home”]. Earl, who stands 5’9.5″, was also a one-time contestant at Kouros Male Model Search 2006 [bagged by Merick Lumagui] and Bodyheat Model Search 2007 [won by Danny Marco Odejar]. Earl hopes to make a dent in showbiz and modeling.
Kaisan Lopez post-summer
Summer has gone and passed and yet we did not even hear a squeak from perennial bikini open contestant Kaisan Lopez. Remember this kid from previous posts? He was Harry‘s runner-up at the 2007 Heatwave Bikini Showdown and he showed some potential back then. From then on, he hopped from one contest to another with the hope of getting good showbiz feedback. He was last seen at the Ilocandia Bikini Open 2008, and yes, he travelled 350 miles from Manila, all the way to Ilocos Norte for the contest. He didn’t win, though.
Niko waits..
It seems like most of the Provoq guys are on a roll these days. The Johnron has a movie with Gabz del Rosario. Harry Chua is teasing all over that gay magazine called Frontman Reloaded. Justin de Leon is in an indie flick called Paupahan. And one of my favorite Provoq guys, Niko Arellano aka Aimann Perea is in, uh, inactive. He deserves a big break, if you ask me. Niko is funny and tall, spritely and sensual, and daring! Lex, how about a nice little movie about basketball?
Paupahan
Allen Dizon had a successful premiere night of his movie Paupahan recently. On June 30 the movie – produced by Allen and his friend Dennis Evangelista, the writer – will have its preem in SM Pampanga prior to its July 2 theatrical run. The reason I am writing this is because we should all go and support this indie movie [which also stars Jay Manalo and Justin de Leon]. Hmmm, ok… that and the bugging question on why every role of Allen Dizon in the movies is that of an aging hunk who pimps and hos!
