The response was overwhelming and the result is 30 amazing guys from around Australia who are charming, very handsome and definitely eligible! It’s our best selection of finalists ever!”
The finalists will campaign for votes to win the coveted CLEO Bachelor crown and take home $5000 cash. The winner will be announced at an event on October 29.
