The Crown of Dionysus: Men of the Year 2014

Presenting the most beautiful, successful, and inspiring men in beauty pageants in the year 2014.


1. José Anmer Paredes (Mister International 2013)

Country: Venezuela

"I lived my childhood in a farm and I've learned to do all the work with animals including milking. I was very young and I learned the value of working to achieve my goals and it's something that I keep up till now," said the Venezuelan elegante at theidealbeauty.eu.
Man who had grown up in a family farm has got an outstanding personality which earned him the title of Mister International 2013. When he speaks, then there would only be positive vibes around you. Getting used to hard work, no wonder then if he earnestly prepared himself two years before the contest, including a 15 kgs weight loss to adjust to the standards of competition. He knew, this wasn't a bodybuilding contest.
He traveled a lot this year fulfilling his duty as the organization's frontman, and made a judge at a bunch of beauty contests during his visits. The way he conducts himself in public, the way he interacts with people (including fans!), really portray how a true beauty king should be!

2. Lucas Montandon (Mister Brasil 2014)

Country: Brazil

He used to be a nerd, chubby and computer freak. Today, he came as Brazil's most beautiful man. But still, he didn't get it easy. The web application designer wasn't considered a front-runner during the competition of Mister Brasil. So when he won, we heard few complaints from pageant enthusiasts. But the fellow contestants defended him on social media. I personally felt he was very worthy of the title. "They're looking for not just another pretty face, but also someone who can speak in public. During the contest, I think, what made the difference was the charisma. I made friends there, didn't see people as competitors. I went there to have new experiences, make new friends," he said, as quoted from caras.uol.com.br.
Gentleman, polite, and stylish would be my quick impression on him. The sincere smile was always on his fresh face. I believe he'll give a good fight at next year's Mister World. And ladies, he is available atm!


3. Adam Davies (Mister Model International 2014 3rd Runner-up)

Country: Philippines

Halfie of Filipino/Welsh who lost a chance of becoming Mister International Philippines 2014, but ended up fourth at the recently held Mister Model International 2014 in Dominican Republic. What makes him special? Apart from his intelligence and magnetic Eurasian looks, Adam also has a clear mission about his participation in pageantry. He said, "I want to focus on helping towards the ongoing battle of eradicating poverty in Philippines by working alongside established charities in whatever way possible and I'm especially interested in being able to do some volunteering," as quoted from mistersofthephilippines.com.

4. Bogdan Yusypchuk (Mister World 2014 Top 10)

Country: Ukraine

Talented actor and musician who dreams of expanding Hollywood. A down to earth personality. Bogdan once told me, he worked very hard to improve his English skills during the orientation days of Mister World 2014. Though he knew it's very difficult for him, but he preferred to learn from mistakes rather than not at all. The man whom I called 'Antonio Banderas of Ukraine' will compete at the Mister International in January 2015. Good luck!

5. Leandro Gonçalves (Mister Brasil - Bahia 2014)

Country: Brazil

Mr Sporty! Surfing, skateboarding, hiking and biking became his daily routines. He and his brother ran a professional club of BMX racing in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. As a coach there, he's been familiar with the children and adolescents.

6. Victors Stevaux (Mister Brasil 2014 Top 6)

Country: Brazil

An orphan who's been living off himself and his brother since the age of 12. With his courage, integrity and persistence, he has taken the initiative to establish a non-profit organization that helps the poor and victims of natural disasters.


7. Nicklas Pedersen (Mister World 2014)

Country: Denmark

When I saw his profile video for Mister World 2014, I had a feeling this guy would steal Julia Morley's heart because the pageant owner was always fond of people who can speak, a spokesperson type. I was proved right. But Nicklas won it fair and square. He was also the individual champion of Sports fast-track! Prior to the contest, Nicklas was a carpenter. Wow!

8. Alberto Martínez (Mister World 2014 Top 10)

Country: Puerto Rico

Not favored by his own people, but won the hearts of many foreigners, including the Mister World 2014 judges! I was very surprised with the criticisms that he received from his fellow Boricuas. They said he is unattractive (like really??). The Taekwondo's 2nd Dan Black Belt holder is also a student of Mechanical Engineering.

9. Karl Bowe (Mister World Ireland 2014)

Country: Ireland

He was a fat teenager back then and is now a successful actor and musician in his country. Karl can be a good role model for anti-bullying advocacy. "I think anything is possible, the fact that I was bullied several years ago and then all of a sudden become Mister Ireland so for me personally I feel it is a great achievement," he said, as quoted from goss.ie.

10. Bruno Mooneyhan (Men Universe Model 2014)

Country: Brazil

Here's the sexiest electrical engineer alive! Do we need more words to describe him?
