HUNKS Q & A WITH JUDGES DETERMINED THE RIFF FROM THE RAFF! A HANDSOME FACE AND GREAT BODY DO NOT NECESSARILY COME WITH BRAIN POWER!
The Q & A helped the judges fine tune the contestants as a hunky body must be accompanied by brains.
James Ng impressed the judges during his Q & A
So did Ho Wei Bing
Though he was not particularly tall, Daniel Tan so well
For the first time in Hottest Hunks contest, a different judging system was used. Previously all 30 finalists stood an equal chance as the top 12 winners would be selected from the 30.
This year, there was a Top 20 semi-finalists like the Miss Universe or Miss World finals where 15 girls would be chosen from the total and of these only 5 would enter the last round.
For Hottest Hunks, this meant 10 contestants would be kicked out as they could not be one of the Top 12 though presumably any of the 10 could still win a subsidiary title.
The first 10 were called which was a great relief to them as they were now in the running for the Top 12 and Hunk of the Year titles.
Then each of the 5 judges was given 2 stars attached to a stick to give to the remaining 20 contestants. All the judges went on stage and one by one, each walked around the contestants for a closer look to decide which two to give the stars.
Slowly and deliberately, every judge had to make up her mind who to give the stars. I was shocked when the last judge did not give a star to Contestant 29 Ho Wei Bing! I really assumed he would be in the running! Of course James Ng was safe and sound as he was among the first batch of the 10 selected!
But there was a dramatic twist!
Those given the stars were booted out!
We all assumed the judges would select those for the last round by giving them a star! Instead, those receiving a star got the kiss of death!
I was very amused and impressed with this quirky touch as it was unexpected and I was taken off guard. I like it when I am caught offguard!
Once the Top 20 were confirmed, each celebrity judge asked 1 question for a group of 4 contestants to answer. As there were 5 judges, each question was directed to 4 finalists. All numbers had been carefully calculated!
Of the 30 contestants, only 20 would be short-listed for the Top 12 winners and Best Hunk titles
After the first 10 finalists were announced, there were 20 left and of these, 10 would be chosen
The judges had to decide who to give the stars
Those given the stars got the death sentence! Most assumed those receiving the stars would be selected for the last round but it was the opposite!
The questions were;
1; What would you do if you suddenly changed into a girl/
2; What words would you never say to a girl?
3; If you became Malaysia's leader later, would you tell you once took part in Hottest Hunks contest?
4; If you were given super powers, what would it be?
5; What would you choose, love, money or fame?
Prodded, poked fun and pestered by the 2 brilliant emcees, the 20 hunks rose to the occasion. Many gave good and safe answers while a few brought the house down with witty remarks and repartees.

William Yap and Vincent Ng
Eddie Chang and Kevin Gar
Aaron Lay and Lone Wong
Jeff Tan was very popular
Leong Foong Hee and Jun Lai Kar Choon
I knew Daniel Tan would be among the Top 12 winners
For sure 29 and 28 would win too
James Ng chose Love above Money and Fame and quite right too
James Ng was cool, calm and collected and made a great impression
Something funny izit
Ho Wei Bing was the tallest and made full use of his imposing height to be one of the 12 winners
