DINGDONG DANTES (Sexiest Man)
Marian Rivera's screen partner Dingdong Dantes had his share of shining moments this year.
Dingdong established himself as one of the most sought-after young actors in the industry. After taking a risk by shedding off his wholesome image and his clothes, he captured the public's wild imagination.
When he first appeared in the Bench denim and underwear fashion show last July, Dingdong drew the loudest cheers and applause from the audience. Unknown to Dingdong, it was just the start of better things to come.
Later this year, Dingdong ranked No. 3 in E! Television's list of Top 25 Sexiest Men of the World, behind UK soccer superstar David Beckham and Argentinean actor Michael Gurfi. He became the first Filipino to be included in the Sexiest List of E! and the highest-rankled Asian this year.
His recent breakup with singer-actress Karylle was the one of the hottest issues in showbiz this year, of course. The breakup ignited several other issues including his rumored romance with Marian and the rift between Marian and Karylle.
All these made Dingdong the hottest male star in 2008.
