Moldovan Wrestler Nicolai Ceban Is Our Newest Olympic Bae

We REALLY need to get a map.
From: NewNowNext
 You can get whiplash from all the Olympic hotness on display in Rio. First we drooled over Chinese swimmer Ning Zetao, and the everyone went gaga for Tongan taekwondo master Pita Taufatofua at the Opening Ceremonies.

Now it’s barely one day into the Games and we’ve already turned our attention to Nicolai Ceban, a 30-year-old freestyle wrestler from Moldova.


Dear lord.



uhhh…


He’s like a hot, hairless bear. And we don’t mean the gay kind—he’s like a friggin’ kodiak someone stuck in a singlet.












At 6’1″ and 210lb, Ceban has already won Olympic gold and is ranked Number 11 in the world. Watch him in a qualifying match from earlier in the year.


And in 2012



Below, he talks about going to prison when he was younger, and how Jesus helped see him through. (We just ignored the subtitles for that part.)



Men’s freestyle wrestling is on August 21, so you’ll know where to find us.

Chinese Swimmer Ning Zetao Is The Olympic Thirst Trap We Deserve

The athletes are coming in hot this year!
From: NewNowNext
 As the Olympics kick off in Rio this weekend our radar is bound to be filled with a whole slew of new athletes to ogle, from wrestling to diving — and even race walking!

First on deck is 23-year-old Ning Zetao, the 6’3″ Chinese swimmer who sent the internet into a tailspin this week after emerging from the pool during training on Wednesday, and flaunting a ridiculous glistening six-pack while hanging around the deck in a pair of skin-tight swim briefs.











Naturally, Twitter had a lot to say about it—




































Aside from being a total babe, Zetao is a highly decorated swimmer, having won a gold medal at the 2015 World Aquatics Championships—


—and several gold medals at the 2014 Asian Games, where he broke the Asian record in the 100-meter freestyle:



l,m Zetao is also a lieutenant in the Chinese Navy, and has posed for a number of magazine covers, including Elle Men China

















GQ China, and Men’s Fitness China:













Zetao also appeared in the Chinese Finding Dory trailer—































And best of all, he knows how to throw some Grade A shade:

Big Brother Update: Who is going tomorrow...

August 6, 2008
From: Favorite Hunks & Other Things



 It is not clear who is going tomorrow night. Memphis Garrett (left) was the target, but with America's choice and the house going back and forth it could be an interesting night. It looks like Jessie Godderz (below) could be toast, but that crew might cave to April's wishes in the end. I am torn, both Jesse and Memphis have grown on me (Or maybe it is just that Libra, April and Keesha are so damned annoying and loud). Memphis is getting better looking to me as time goes on, and Jesse is still entertaining to watch despite his 'healthy' self esteem... If I could choose, Libra would be pushed out that door, loud mouth and all.


And just because Steven Daigle (left) was so cute, had to add this pic.

 God damn, Adore! You could get it as a girl and as a boy.




Autopsies Of Orlando Victims, Shooter, Released

Reports revealed that police shot the gunman at least eight times.
From: NewNowNext
Family members of the victims of the Orlando massacre finally have some answers as to what happened inside Pulse nightclub two months ago, as 31 of the victims’ autopsy reports were released on Friday.

The reports revealed that most of the victims died of multiple gunshot wounds in a variety of places, including their heads, torsos and arms.

“It’s heartbreaking and it’s extremely difficult, but I have to know exactly what happened to my son, and I want the world to know and understand what he went through,” said Christine Leinonen, who recently spoke at the Democratic National Convention after losing her son in the attack.

“People will share my pain and realize he’s more than just a photo flashing on a screen and went through a lot of pain,” she added.

Autopsy reports also showed that gunman Omar Mateen was shot by police eight times from a distance.

The killer tested negative for drugs and alcohol, and his urine did not show abnormal testosterone levels, despite previous speculation about his potential anabolic steroid abuse.

The Medical Examiner’s office plans to release the remaining victims’ autopsies in increments, resuming Monday morning and expecting to be finished by Wednesday night.

Adorable Grandson Gives His “Nan” The Most Amazing Birthday Present

Have your tissues ready before watching this one.
From: NewNowNext
Anyone lucky enough to have grown up with a special grandmother in their lives can definitely appreciate this grandson’s amazing birthday gift to his “nan.”

David Goodings was taking his grandmother, Iris Howard, for a drive on her 86th birthday when he presented her with a gift that brought her to tears.

Goodings flipped through radio stations in the car before settling on a broadcast reporting “breaking news.”

“Iris Howard is celebrating her birthday,” the announcer said. “Commonly known for winning the best nan competition after 10 years in a row, the 86-year-old is often described as an incredible person and loved by all her family.”

What follows is a series of surprise messages from Iris’ loved ones that brought the grandmother — and most viewers — to tears.

Watch the amazing surprise unfold in the video below.

27-Year-Old Meng Fanyu Named First-Ever Mr. Gay China

A previous attempt to hold the competition was shut down in 2010.
From: NewNowNext
Meng Fanyu was just crowned the winner of the Mr. Gay China competition, the country’s first franchise from the international pageant Mr. Gay World.

The 27-year-old reportedly won the competition by a landslide after four weeks of performances, including a strip tease to Nina Simone’s “Feeling Good.”

“Something like this event is a great platform to raise awareness of the LGBT community,” Fanyu said. “Many people don’t really know what LGBT is, and coming out can still be difficult, so you really have to prove yourself to be an upstanding person.”

Event coordinators first tried to hold the competition in 2010, but it was shut down by authorities.

This time, the event was reportedly met with zero resistance, as the LGBT community is slowly gaining acceptance in China.

Despite progress, however, it is still difficult to be yourself in the country, and even most of the Mr. Gay China competitors are not out of the closet.

“I will never tell my parents that I’m gay,” one candidate said. “I’m their whole life – I don’t want to let them down.”

Luckily for Fanyu, he feels the freedom to wear his new title with pride.

“Next, I want to go to Mr. Gay World,” he said. “I want to stand on the world stage and say to people, ‘I’m gay, and I’m from China,’ and show them that the LGBT movement in China is vibrant and active.”
