Last year, we featured BlueIre as Summer Boy of iStorya and got to know the person behind the nick as he candidly answered questions in the interview. And now, summer’s here again and it’s time for us to choose another featured iStoryan this sizzling season.
The summer poll last week ended with the runners-up trailing way behind the sure big winner, xetorkaiba, the Summer Boy of iStorya 2017. He is a mainstay in the chat box and a regular in the Humor and Love is section in the forum. It is not his first win though, in the polls, he also won last year’s Crush ngiStorya so xetorkaiba is definitely well-loved by many.
Let’s read more on our main man’s personal thoughts and funny quips on things about life, love and just about anything under the sun.
