Malaysian singer and actor Sam CN, one-half of the popular duo FS (Fuying & Sam), has earned international recognition after being nominated for TC Candler’s “The 100 Most Handsome Faces 2025”, becoming the only Malaysian to make this year’s list.
The prestigious annual ranking by TC Candler — established in 1990 — is known for its global influence and independent evaluation of beauty and charisma. It celebrates individuals from over 150 countries, including entertainers, athletes, and public figures who represent both inner and outer appeal.
In this year’s nomination lineup, Sam joins world-renowned stars such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Kang Daniel, Jeff Satur, Ziyu, and Burak Özçivit, marking a proud moment for Malaysia’s growing global entertainment presence.
Reacting to the nomination, Sam shared his surprise and gratitude:
“I noticed TC Candler’s official account followed me on Instagram late at night, and soon after, I received the nomination notice. I was both shocked and deeply honoured. To be listed alongside so many international stars is truly humbling and motivating.”
The news sparked excitement among fans across social media, with many celebrating the milestone as a win for Malaysian talent on the world stage.
The recognition comes as Fuying & Sam prepare to release a new song, an upcoming project that Sam says has been given new energy and inspiration by this international acknowledgment.
