In a stunning encore performance, Dean Filippone of Sigma Phi Epsilon clinched the title of Mr. Heartthrob at the Alpha Phi Sorority’s annual charity event for the second year running. Dean’s victory not only showcased his exceptional talents but also contributed to Sigma Phi Epsilon’s back-to-back triumph, solidifying their status as Mr. Heartthrob champions.
The event’s first segment, “Rhyme without Reason,” saw Dean don a whimsical ensemble themed “Ice Spice and 3 Blind Mice,” bringing humor and creativity to the stage. This set the tone for an evening filled with entertainment and camaraderie.
Dean’s versatility and musical prowess took center stage during the talent show, where he delivered a captivating performance on multiple instruments. From the piano melodies of La La Land to the guitar solo of Eruption, the trumpet rendition of Industry Baby, the bass performance of Play That Funky Music, and the quirky Otamatone rendition of Time of my Life, Dean left an indelible mark on the audience.
Notably, Dean excelled in the interview segment, showcasing his intelligence and passion for the cause, further contributing to his overall victory. His performance earned him the title of Mr. Heartthrob 2024. In addition, Sigma Phi Epsilon’s is the chapter that raised the most funds for women’s heart health.
What makes this victory even more remarkable is that Dean Filippone’s win follows Sigma Phi Epsilon’s success in the previous year, with Taylan Mansur claiming the Mr. Heartthrob title. Dean’s triumph has now established a tradition of excellence for Sigma Phi Epsilon, demonstrating their ongoing commitment to making a positive impact on their community and contributing to the awareness of women’s heart health.
As Sigma Phi Epsilon basks in the glory of this back-to-back victory, they not only celebrate the individual achievements of their talented members but also reaffirm their dedication to supporting meaningful causes and fostering a sense of unity within the fraternity.
