Yes, of course, we all know that Dingdong Dantes has been included in the list of The 25 Sexiest Men of the World. But did you know how he is ranked - that is, after David Beckham who placed No. 1?
Yes, Dingdong is No. 6, way, away ahead of Spain's Enrique Iglesias who finished No.25.
This was reported by Funfare's Big Apple correspondent Edmund Silvestre (of The Filipino Reporter) who said that Hollywood's E! Entertainment Television has finally released its roster of 25 Sexiest Men of the World, with Filipino heartthrob Dingdong placing No. 6, a position good enough to give him the honor of being the highest-ranked Asian celebrity hunk in the elite list.
Edmund noted that Dingdong, star of the top-rated GMA soaps Marimar and Dyesebel and one of the country's top product endorsers, was a spot below Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou (Amistad, Blood Diamond), but several slots ahead of Hollywood hotties Ryan Reynolds, Oliver Martinez, and Enrique Iglesias who is half-Filipino.
The eye-catching Bench and Belo Medical Clinic billboards featuring Dingdong are said to have boosted his chances in that selection.
"Never in my wildest dream na naisip kong mapapabilang ako rito," Dingdong said shortly before he was informed of his selection a few months ago. "Nakaka-flatter na may nakaka-appreciate sa akin...isang malaking karangalan ito para sa akin. I'm very thankful talaga. Maybe because minamahal ko talaga ang trabaho ko that's why siguro it loves me back."
According to Edmund, 20 judges were recruited by E! (Entertainment Television) to come up with the list of the world's 25 hottest blokes topped by UK football superstar David Beckham, with Johnny Depp taking the second place. Both Beckham and Depp said they are flattered by their inclusion.
Dingdong, has recently broke up with long-time girlf Karylle whom he just might meet in Las Vegas where she's singing the National Anthem at the Pacquiao-dela Hoya bout. He is now reportedly "secretly" dating Marian Rivera but the two consistently denied any serious relations. He and Marian are scheduled to star in a concert in LA on Friday, Dec. 5, after which Dingdong plans to fly to Las Vegas with his father to watch the Pacquiao-dela Hoya bout.
E! is one of the most widely viewed cable networks, available to 80 million cable and direct broadcast satellite subscribers in the US, and in 600 million homes internationally.
