Meet the gorgeous contestants of Mister Global 2017 who say ‘cheese’ in 11 languages

The Mister Global beauty pageant crowned a new winner last weekend, in a flurry of skin, skimpy outfits, and profound interview segments that educated everyone about how to achieve world peace in the time of Trump. The pageant, which was held this year in Thailand, featured an array of handsome contestants who charmed the judges, and the globe, with their winning smiles and sparkling personalities.
