The nominations for TC Candler’s “Most Beautiful Faces” and “Most Handsome Faces” have yet to close. As such, the list is still being updated, with new names and faces making the cut. It turns out that in addition to the previous five local celebs, another one has recently been announced!
Artist Michiyo Ho (何戀慈)’s shortlist was revealed yesterday (4th May), much to the delight of her fans. However, no one was more surprised than Michiyo herself!
“(There are) many question marks (above) my head,” the 27-year-old artist remarked in her recent Instagram story. For context, Michiyo added a link of her nomination on TC Candler’s list. Clearly, the artist had no clue as to how and why she made the list.
She apparently wasn’t the only one confused. YouTuber Chang Yong (蔡常勇) also posted her nomination on his Instagram Story with literal question marks of his own. “I’m the same as you,” she told Chang Yong when he tagged Michiyo to ask her about it.
Of course, her friends and fans were quick to clear her confusion. They explained via private messages that anyone could now be nominated with a fee. “(I) checked the site and it really (works) like this,” she commented. “I don’t care who you are, but I’m thankful (to you).” When friend and YouTuber Phei Yong (陳培永) laughed at her, she retorted: “Laughing fart! Be careful, I (might) shortlist you!”
Currently, nominations can be made by paying a fee on Patreon. With subscriptions at different tiers, members will be entitled to different benefits. The highest tier, Voter costs $10 (~RM43). It allows member to give 5 nominations. If they have been a patron for six months and more at this level, they will get to vote in the final list with guaranteed early access to it prior to its release.
Congrats to Michiyo on her nomination! We look forward to seeing how she does in the overall ranking. Also, we’d like to know if she’ll make good on her ‘threat’ and put Phei Yong for the list as well.
