Vladislav from Vladivostok!

A Russian man who joined a boyband competition show on Chinese TV on a whim but quickly regretted his decision has finally been released from his ordeal after making it all the way to the final.

Vladislav Ivanov, a 27-year-old part-time model from Vladivostok, was working on the show Produce Camp 2021 as a translator when producers reportedly noticed his good looks and asked him to sign up as a contestant.

I wonder was his whole down playing of wanting to be there and wanting to be voted out genuine or was it more a reverse psychology mind game in the hope of having the desired effect that it obviously did i.e millions of people voting for him to stay IN !

If so his plan perhaps worked a treat and it was maybe more just his timing in not dropping that plan on maybe the final that buggered him up.......and speaking of him being buggered .....he was damned cute too :-)
