50 Shades of Rhoads

One hunk who’s quietly working under the radar in Manila is Matthias Rhoads. Anyone who can sing and dance and act on live stage is a mean feat, and he’s got my admiration. The half-nakedness is, of course, the bonus for most parts.

Where is Jon Hall?

Last seen at the Bench Fever concept show in June last year, British-Filipino Jon Hall has gone a-missin’ from the scene. Prior to that, he was one of the favored models in the Bench mansion. Lately, however, not much has been heard or seen about him. The 6′-tall model, who spent his first seven years in Cebu and the next decade in Florida came back to the Philippines with hopes of joining major basketball leagues. However, after talent casters discovered him, Jon Hall has blazed the runway in major ramp shows for top designers and brands. He also did two adult movies [Xerex and Sinful Nights].

Gym Crush: Chris Nepomuceno

This guy who regularly works out at Gold’s Gym Makati, finished 2nd runner-up to Fil-British model Jon Mulally in the Century Tuna Superbods Model Search in Boracay Island last year. He is only 22 years old, stands 5’10 and get this guys, he has green freakin’ eyes! He is also known as Chris Samson in the modeling biz.
