Man Crowned MR UGLY Says ''Girls Fight For Me Now Because I Have Celebrity Status '' | Photo

Mr Ugly, William Masvinu says women are throwing themselves at his feet. But he is not interested. Scooping the Mr Ugly title twice in a row is undisputable testament thatHarare man, Masvinu, is indeed very ugly and deserves the accolade.

Masvinu who shares his mobile with his wife Alice Chabhanga who
is almost always by his side, said he does not have time for
'girls'."Zvevasikana handina dhiri nazvo, I have my own girl at home
and oneneeds to be careful these days because there are diseases,"
said
Masvinu.

Masvinu is confident of his looks and is unfazed by people who stare
athim in the streets."My ugliness comes naturally to me and although I
did a bit to prepare forthe show, I let my looks do the rest.

Now I am a celebrity, when peoplemeet me in the street they shout Mr
Ugly and I wave at them happily," hesaid. Masvinu, who is a part time
mechanic, revealed that he has also venturedinto acting and features
in a film titled Fuse Yatsva which has alreadybeen produced.

"These days I spend time selling my film on the streets of Harare
andpeople like it," he said.Last year, the 39-year-old was quoted
bemoaning the lack of corporate support for "celebrities" like him.

He said as the reigning Mr Ugly Harare, he should be in the same
leaguewith superstars such as Oliver Mtukudzi.

"Despite my celebrity status, my life hasn't changed and I still
struggle tomake ends meet," he said.

"The corporate world should support me as Iam a celebrity just like
other musicians and top people," he said. But, he added, as a celebrity he now enjoys numerous free drinks and beer and often gets into shows without paying as people "respect" his celebrity status.

It is just a matter of time before Masvinu proves how far he can go as a celebrity or whether he will make headlines for grabbing other people's wives.
