Today’s 10 Most Envied Bodies (Part5)

- John Magsaysay of Young Star Magazine -
"I came back here originally to play basketball. I don’t know what happened about that!"

What happened was John Hall’s invasion of Manila with his monolithic billboards lining EDSA that spans him to near nakedness, covered only by briefs with the country’s leading name in fashion stamped. It goes without saying that it was John who dared to be the top endorser of Bench Underwear. And he was the perfect choice!

It took a lot of balls and John had plenty of guts. Ever since his Old Spice challenger stint, that was all he ever spilled. He made a dare seemed do stern, it tested one’s masculinity. And as egoistic men would never admit, they were intimidated.

Born to an English father and a Batangueña mother, John grew up in Florida where he took on Hip Hop as a lifestyle. It went pretty much like playing ball with JA Rule and Notorious B.I.G. on the background. That drags on until he get an opening from any of the basketball leagues around. "If starting out in PBL is what it takes, then I’ll start out in PBL. I’m not gonna be picky about it. I’ll take my shot."

And as sure as his daily training, he will be no benchwarmer. But for now, he is cozy in his briefs, his Bench and his slot as among the men women fantasize about the most. He’s just waiting for someone bold enough to challenge him. And this time, there’ll be no more money-back guarantees.
