Top 10 sexiest Chinese of 2015, according to Shanghaiist

Three humble stall assistants, a cheery fast-food worker and two unlikely models have been picked by Shanghaiist website as its Top 10 Sexiest People of 2015.

All of them are Chinese, mostly from Taiwan, China and Hong Kong, with the exception of the hunky durian seller from Malaysia. The majority are young faces with squeaky-clean, drop-dead gorgeous looks. And not surprisingly, a few of them are part-time models who were unknowns till they became famous online.

Interestingly, two seniors made it to the hot list too - a busty female model in her 50s from Hong Kong and a 79-year-old Chinese grandpa who took the fashion runway by storm earlier this year.

Claiming the top two spots are two Taiwanese hunks who made female shoppers swoon with their hot bods and sterling service at their market stalls in Taipei. Reportedly part-time models, one sells tofu while the other helps out at a fruit and vegetable stall.

Setting hearts aflame too is another hunk, a Malaysian model who stopped traffic this year at his relatives' durian stall. He came in fourth, after the Hong Kong model with ample assets.
