Just wanted to reminded every about the fourth annual Mr. Hyphen competition happening this Saturday, November 14 at the Oakland Asian Cultural Center. That's right, baby. A beauty pageant. Come, let us gather to celebrate the hot men of the Asian American community.
Each year, Hyphen and OACC celebrate Asian American men who devote themselves to worthy community causes. While structured like a pageant with rounds of talent, fashion and Q&A, Mr. Hyphen turns stereotypes on their heads in front of a sold-out crowd. Striking a blow for equal-opportunity all-in-good-fun ogling, Mr. Hyphen is an energy-filled evening of fun and charity.
Mr. HyphenThe event will be hosted by spoken word poet D'Lo. Rounds will be decided alternately by an audience vote and by an illustrious panel of judges. The man who is crowned Mr. Hyphen wins a $1000 cash donation to his nonprofit organization. Here are the awesome dudes who will be vying for the title:
