Mr. Gay World Results 
This year at WinterPRIDE we had the honor of hosting the first Mr. Gay World Competition during the festival. We saw a total of 19 delegates from around the world come to Whistler to compete to see who will be the best ambassador for the next year.
Mr. Gay Ireland, Max Krzyzanowski, becomes Mr. Gay World 2009 in front of a sold-out audience at the grand finale at The Westin Resort & Spa, the energy was electric.
As Mr. Gay World, Max will travel the globe in 2009 as a goodwill ambassador for the gay community to promote gay rights and equality for all gay citizens of the world especially the LGBT communities who still endure oppression, violence and all forms of homophobia.
Mr. Gay Paraguay became 1st runner-up for the competition, Mexico 2nd, Australia 3rd, New Zealand 4th and Canada 5th runner up. In addition Argentina, Austria, Colombia and South Africa made it to the Top 10.
Mr. Gay Philippines insured Asia was well represented by taking the "Best Costume Award" and "Mr. Popular Award".
Mr. Gay Argentina took Mr. Photogenic Award; Mr. Gay Colombia was supported by the fellow delegates with the Mr. Congeniality, while Mr. Gay Paraguay won Mr. Swimwear. Mr. Gay Australia received the Mr. Leadership Award for his efforts at the various team challenges. |
The festival would not have been made possible with the generous support of our sponsors and the countless hours of our volunteers. Thank you for playing such an important role in the festival. What for more details in the coming weeks as we tally how much was raised for our various charities, as well as who won all the fabulous trips!
