ELKO, Nev. (AP) -- A BYU student is Mr. Hong Kong of 2008.

Michael Tsu was crowned earlier this month in front of 700 screaming women in Hong Kong in a broadcast to millions.

The 23-year-old student says he's choosing education over fame -- turning down endorsement deals to finish his college degree at Brigham Young University.

The competition included talent, swimsuit, debate, acting, dancing and martial arts portions.

Tsu said he was told he won in part because women in the audience said he had a cute smile.
