I wish I’d trained…

Published by hossanleong under Hossan's Rants & Raves

I’m not a particularly Sporty sorta guy…the weights I lift are probably my laptop bag and my box of mooncakes…

But THIS is what I could have looked like if I’d been a competitive diver…

Qiu Bo looking rather competitive!

So this is me instead…

What in the world is a Mankini??

Published by hossanleong under Uncategorized

Mankini is a type of sling bikini worn by men. It was popularized by Sacha Baron Cohen when he donned one in the film Borat. The buzz around the film started building during the Cannes Film Festival in May 2006, when Baron Cohen posed in character on the beach in a neon green mankini, alongside four models. According to one fashion expert, suspenders combined with bikini briefs or panties form an unaesthetic pattern.

WHAT WILL THEY THINK OF NEXT??

note: Not for the faint-hearted…

I DARE YA! Wear this at the Beach!

Zac Efron in a Strip Club?? GASP!

Published by hossanleong under Uncategorized

Well I say it’s about time!

Zac denied that he was in an adult club on Broadway with pal Corbin Bleu, spending a couple of thousand on drinks and lap dancers.

We think it’ll be good for his CV! Unless Vanessa says otherwise!

I don’t know though…if one of our budding actors was seen partying at a Karaoke hostess bar here, would we kick up a fuss?
