Liam Hemsworth is Bench Newest Endorser!

The Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth signed with Bench as its newest international endorser, Ricky Lo of The Philippine Star confirmed.

Liam Hemsworth will join A-list stars such as Joe Jonas, Bruno Mars, Michael Trevino (Vampire Diaries), Lucy Hale (Pretty Little Liars), David Archuleta and K-Pop superstars Siwon and Donghae as the global brand's recently acquired international models. 

The report also stated that Bench big boss Ben Chan was in Los Angeles last week to finalize the contract with Liam Hemsworth and to supervise the pictorial for the bench posters and billboards.

Liam is the youngest of the three Hemsworth brothers in Hollywood, the other two are Luke and Chris Hemsworth, the latter playing the titular role of Thor in The Avengers. Before starring as Gale Hawthorne in the hit film adaptation The Hunger Games, Liam starred together with Miley Cyrus in the 2010 film The Last Song. Miley and Liam are now engaged (read story here).

Before Liam Hemsworth was confirmed as a new Bench endorser, it was also reported by Ricky Lo's Funfare that a K-Pop superstar will join the rest of Bench global endorsers. The clues, including the picture posted in the site pointed to Lee Min Ho (see related article here).

With more and more big stars signing up for Bench, the competition is just getting hotter as rival Penshoppe is also acquiring equally famous celebrities for their campaigns.

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth Engaged!

Miley Cyrus and boyfriend of 3 years Liam Hemsworth were already engaged to be married. Liam Hemsworth, who played Gale Hawthorne in the hit movie The Hunger Games, proposed to Miley on May 31 with a 3.5-carat diamond ring from jeweller Neil Lane.

Miley Cyrus (19) and Liam Hemsworth (22) met while working on the movie adaptation of Nicholas Sparks novel, The Last Song in 2009 and thereby fell in love with each other. The two did split in 2010 before rekindling their relationship last year.

"I'm so happy to be engaged and look forward to a life of happiness with Liam," Miley Cyrus told People Magazine. She also shared the happiness via Twitter, thanking her fans for all the love and expressing how happy she was with all her dreams coming true.

Liam Hemsworth approached celebrity jeweller Neil Lane who told People that he wanted "something unusual" and "something really beautiful and romantic" for his soon-to-be bride.  The ring was handcrafted in 18-karat gold with intricately carved diamond floral motifs in an art nouveau pattern. What made it extra special was the antique late 19th century center stone.

Miley Cyrus catapulted to international fame after starring in Disney's Hannah Montana while Liam (who is the younger brother of Chris Hemsworth) became a household name just after his role in The Hunger Games.
