He caught everyone’s attention when he stepped on the stage. Tall, oozing with sex appeal and a doctor to boot, this guy is too good to be true. But is Dr. Hayden Kho Jr. good-looking enough to avoid being eliminated in Celebrity Duets? Text by Loretta G. Ramirez. Photos courtesy of GMA Network. He admits that he does not sing. That statement made us wonder why Dr. Hayden Kho Jr. is even in the first ever reality-TV singing competition in the Philippines. But watching his first performance made us realize how strong his appeal is on stage and how he can indeed capture the audience’ attention on the palm of his sexy hand. The Hunk Since his days in UST, he has been admired and a sought after model. He has modeled for top fashion designers and has even joined Bodyshots, a modeling competition. Now a certified physician, passing his licensure examination last February, Dr. Hayden Kho Jr. has proven that he is one of the most eligible bachelors in town. But ladies, before anyone of you guys get any ideas; Dr. Hayden Kho Jr. is very much in love with the popular cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Vicky Belo. Already in their second year as a couple, this celebrity hunk is still a picture of a man who is enamored. “I am dedicating my songs to Dr. Vicki Belo,” says the young doctor who is obviously smitten. “She’s a very nice person. She is very sweet. She has all the blessings and she deserves it all. But of course, every woman needs her prince charming and then I think I am here to fulfill this dream of hers in singing.” The Performer In his debut performance on national television, Hayden was obviously nervous but was able to make it through with the help of the beautiful Agot Isidro. His next performances earned him thumbs up from the judges and have even made him one of the top contenders in the contest. “You really keep on trying to push your borders in singing. Every week, parang paiba ng paiba at pahirap ng pahirap 'yung ginagawa mo,” says Buboy Garovillo, one of the esteemed judges of Celebrity Duets. “I thought Hayden was one of the weaker ones, vocally. But today the song (If you are not the one) was so difficult that I had to ask Louie (Ocampo), is he hitting all the notes? And Louie said yes, apparently yes. So even if the vocal chords have a weakness you were hitting the notes quite correctly. On that angle, congratulations!” said Mitch Valdez, a renowned singer and artist. "I think you have all the tools to make it through this competition till the end. You have the look. You know how to choose your songs, you know how to interact with your ka-duet and you always take the risk and you always surprise us even though there are a couple of technical glitches in your singing, you are a celebrity and again you get away with it. So far, you will always have my vote,” says Louie Ocampo on Dr. Hayden’s last performance. There you have it, if these testimonies are not enough to convince you to vote for the hunk in Celebrity Duets, just watch his next performance this Saturday on GMA 7.
