They are not always on the red carpet because for some strange reasons, they prefer to keep a low profile. Whenever they are seen on TV, they look dashing. Whenever they are seen in public, they are equally well-propotioned.
Their mission to look great and clean have often led to people gossiping about their sexual orientation. Whether there is some truth to the rumours or not, we don't care. All we care about is that they are showing the modern man that gone are the days when it was only women who were allowed to look clean and impeccably well-dressed. We present the top10 boys who held it down in the wardrobe department during 2011.

Top10 stylish girls of 2011: Cute & Pretty
10. Lungile Radu
My niece tried very hard to convince me to put Lungile on the list despite my clear consternation. Because she insited, I ended up agreeing with her that I will put him on the number 10 spot. I am not sure if her man will like this but she says there is something about his eyes that makes her have a silly celeb crush on him. On the wardrobe department, I just have to agree that Lungile pulls it all the time. Be it with formal clothes, jeans and t-shirts, Lungile sure knows how to work his magic.
9. Thapelo Mokoena
I am not including him on the list because he might most arguably be my cousin since I'm a Mokwena, but Thapelo knows his style. He has come a long way since the days of kissing Karabo Moroka in Generations. Whether Thapelo his doing a magazine cover or a Hunters Dry advert with is Chinas, he always manages to bring his style to the table. I am not sure about his looks though but my niece insists he is handsome. I guess I shall ask TVS ladies to comment on that one.
8. Andrew Barnes
ENews Day is the brainchild of this gay news reader. His show came to fruition in 2007/2008 to provide TV viewers with witty and credible news during lunch time. Upon the launch of the ENews Channel, the programme was absorbed into the workings of the channel. Andrew is always in well-cut suites as he reads the news at lunch time or whether he's in London to bring us the latest on the Shrien Dewani case. I'm sure Andrew does rock it in bermudas and vests too when walking at the Cape Town beach with his man.
7. Derek van Damme
His colleague Andrew had to calm down a few gays who were so so so into Derek. Since taking up the ENews Chief Meteorologist in 2009 when the ENews Channel was born, Derek has never disappointed when he forecasts the weather for us, both meteorologically and with is well-cut suites. Mina the most thing I focus on is his suites and and seeing how different it is from the one he was wearing the previous day. If I was a size 32, I was going to steal them.
6. Lunga Tshabalala
It doesn't take a demartologist to see Lunga is not one of the handsome guys around. However, we have to give it to the poor little boy. Lunga is forever well-dressed at social events and I do not know how he dresses like on Selimathunzi because I cannot remember the last time I watched. Whenever I do take pics of him on the red carpet, Lunga is dressed so well for dayzzzzz such that Nonhle Thema may just develop a crush on him, boom!
5. Duncan Senye
Definitely not the one to attend social events, Duncan apparently is handsome. All I do know is that nigger is very light and can be easily mistaken for a coloured brother. Since the day of him reading news on SABC2 up to and including Speak Out, Duncan still shows that style aint for the young but for the matured too. He sure knows how to work jeans, shirts and jackets. Good boy.
4. Andile Ncube
Andile is most arguably the most well-dressed guy of the decade. Whether he's on TV hosting LIVE, doing some soccer show or driving on the streets of Sunnyside in Pretoria, Andile never lets his fashion guard down. Though his dreadlocks seems not to be growing any more these days, his fashions sense is growing from strength to strength. Despite my clear disagreement with my niece, she insists that Andile is good-looking. Mina ke all I see is a guy who dresses well. Rossette Mogomotsi deserves Fikile Mbalula, not Andile.
3. Juan de Jongh
Nigger is one of the guys who featured on the flip-folding cover of the September Mean's Healtth magazine. The Springbok player has a well-built body that can lift Bonang Matheba's 56 kg in one hand. He was so well dressed in the magazine. Nigger also dresses well when going to a rugby practice or just him going to the mall so see if the Christmas trees have been erected yet.
2. Linda Moeketsi
We are not sure what his claim to fame is but we do know the boy is a socialite. Perfect fits are so doing him some justice and your boy Linda knows it. He never goes wrong with fashion and he is forever pulling it off so well. My niece says to me if she wasn't committed to her man, she was going to hunt him down just to kiss him. She tells me she is intrigued by his looks and well-trimmed body frame. I was like what! Girl, I am still your uncle, you know.
1. Ziyon of Lequideep
The Lequideep vocalist is one of the best dressed men GQ 2011. However, this aint GQ and we don't care which spot he got on the list. Here, Ziyon rightfully occupies the number 1 spot. Whether he's performing on LIVE, Club 808 or in a music video, Ziyon never forgets his swag at home and is always eloqently dressed. He on the top 3 of GQ SA best dressed men, what more reason do you want?
That's it for now. Coming up later during the week. Top 10 female role models of 2011 and Top 10 male role models of 2011.
