Binibining Pilipinas 2008 Grand Coronation Night Winners

I was already asleep last night and I didn’t intend to write about the Bb. Pilipinas 2008 Grand Coronation Night event. However, my wife insisted that I watch the Philippines’ most prestigious beauty pageant. Goodness, beauty contest is not my thing. In fact I haven’t seen a lot of beauty contests even when I was younger. But hey, this is the Bb. Pilipinas and it’s not just a simple beauty contest held during barangay fiestas.

So I watched the pageant. Charlene Gonzales-Muhlach and Precious Lara Quigaman (former beauty queens and Bb. Pilipinas titleholders) hosted the show. Charlene Gonzales still looks hot and so is the younger Precious Lara. Paolo Bediones also acted as a co-host.

I was able to start watching the pageant when Charlene Gonzales was re-announcing the candidates in their swimwear. I’ve noticed the candidates were the Top 10 semi-finalists of the whole competition and maybe my timing was just impeccable.

The winners of the Bb. Pilipinas 2008 Beauty Pageant are the following:

Bb. Pilipinas-International – Patricia Fernandez
Bb. Pilipinas-World – Janina San Miguel
Bb. Pilipinas-Universe – Jennifer Barrientos

I’m not really sure if I got the spelling of their names right. If I got them wrong, then my apologies.

The photos/pictures of these ladies are as follows. So feast your eyes on their beauties:

  1. Whahhhhhhhhh bakit nagkaganun ang final winner sa Bb. Pilipinas?

    The winners were as surprised as the crowd and perhaps everyone who watched the event….

    question: was no. 15 the one who answered about family?

    No. 7 deserved it so does the one who got sick even if she had to pause for a long while….

    There were only 2 or 3 sensible responses…the rest were ohhhhh crap….even if they are nervous, they could have at least replied a simple yet convincing response.

    just a thought…wala ba tlagang top 5 with a final ONE question? or to prevent more humiliating responses from the finalists?

    ano ba yan….

    you are working with call center? i was just wonder
    ing you misspelled the word “loose”. please check
    your grammar. don’t be too harsh on her. we have
    produce great beauty queen in the person of Melanie
    Marquez, who was not also very good during the
    question and answer portion. at least janina can still
    develop her english proficiency. But one thing is hard
    very difficult to acquire in life, and at least she
    has one already. she is naturally beautiful. That is what matters most.who knows she will win the crown in the miss Universe

    I think that her current school has nothing to do with this.
    Maybe her grade school and secondary school pa where
    foundation in communication skills were built up.
    If she had a poor foundation on this, then it ends up with
    a total mess.
    Anyway, I think that the real mess here is the way winners
    are selected. Don’t they have standards on choosing the
    right people who’ll represent us on international beauty
    pageants?! Blame it on them.

    in addition to what she said,
    School has nothing to do with her inability to deliver a correct English.
    Thus, its her fault that she did not prepare to the possibility of questions. Or she should have a review on her English 101 before she stands up on the stage and face millions of viewers. Remember that school is not spoon feeding, still its a student who dictates its intelligence.

    amarinth reply on March 11th, 2008:

    i think hindi naman pertinent kung quiz bee or hindi and sinalihan niya. sa isang pageant, napaka important na smart/inteliigent ang babae. dapat talaga may balance between these two traits. kaya she is a big disappointment…a big no-no, lalo na’t sa miss world siya isasali. kasi basic english grammar lang naman yun eh, tapos hindi pa niya magawa ng tama. buti sana kung ubod ng hirap yung tanong, maiiintindihan mo pa.

    the question was so very simple, even a grade 1 student can answer it but i dunno how she did some magic spell that the juddges were deaf and it was pretty obvious that she didn’t have any confidence…duhhh..There were some candidates who were deserving her title.. I would like to give an advice that before she will represent for the Ms.World 2008, she should review her english and built up a strong foundation of her confidence..she should know that it’s not only the country she represents for will be mebarrass but also herself and family that has a vital role in joining the contest..hope this will not happen again…

    naku, hindi porke beauty pageant eh beauty lang importante… at lalong hindi lang sa quiz bee importante ang brains.. sa lahat ng bagay kailangan ng common sense! Okay lang kung grammar at pronunciation lang ang problema, the biggest issue there was that she wasn’t able to answer the question. She stated excuses for her inadequacies. one short sentence that is straight to the point is better than a paragraph without sense

    LICAROS won last year’s event alright…coz she was smart, witty and everything…but she lacked beauty…she was just another plain-pinay…she didn’t even make it to the top 10…

    now this year, they made sure that that f*cking #15 won…all beauty alright…but an airhead as well…

    just when will the organizers EVER find someone who has both the needed arsenal??? hmmm…maybe that would be possible if the organizers (and judges) themselves had enough brains as well…

    well, it’s been common knowledge that this pageant is tainted with politics. Nampoocha! nagpuyat pa naman ako. Was rooting for no 8 and no 15 but during the Q&A, I would have fallen from my seat if I was sitting down. Eh di lalo na nung sinabi ung winners, halos magtumbling ako. I expected #8 to win and # 15 to finish dead last. My choices were, Universe:#8, World:#13, International:#7. Siguro kasi nakabroadcast sa GMA7 kaya 7 nanalo. Hahaha, I’m sorry, hahaha. Kung confidence and inherent “smartness” ng contestant ang aasahan, wala si #15 nyan (Siguro puwede kung magspend ng 3 months daily practice he he). Oh well, good luck to us sa Miss World!

Hello? she’ll be competing for OUR COUNTRY!!! sigh!!!!

  10. My God!!! This batch are the worst ever in Binibining Pilipinas history… Even if u are nervous, at least they should have came up with a sensible answers. There was no tough answer asked last night compared to past pageants. I think the organizer should thoroughly screen the candidates, they became a laughing stock onstage! Number 15, gezzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, she even said she is confident, but when asked a very simple sentence, she could not even organize her thoughts. OMG!!!!! I wonder where this pageantry is heading from here. Its a shame!!!

    no, tabetha did not give a sound answer. it just sounded “sound” because she delivered it fluently, however she did not define success she gave the requirements for success. and #18 shouldn’t have bothered answering the question if she would say there’s no perfect family. she should have just stopped there. most of them gave nonsense side comments!

  25. Nakakagalit. kakainit ng ulo. ginagawang tanga ang mga pilipino. matatalino na ang mga manonood! lantaran na ang pamumulitika!!!! MADAME ARANETA kumilos ka naman diyan, sayang naman ang pinaghirapan mo. pa-tribute-tribute pa kayo kay pitoy moreno, masisira lang pala ang pangalan niya dahil sa palpak na judging. I could have understood it if the criteria was only limited to swimsuit and gown but much has been devoted to question and answer. So I expected that it will have a great weight in the final judging. I watched Binibini because I think that this is still relevant to the times – it gives opportunities to women to be able to show their beauty and talent and to support a cause.

    Pero kung ganito ka-walang kwenta ang pageant ngayon, itigal na yan, ibigay na lang sa mga mahihirap ang pambili ng gown, may halaga pa!!!!

  32. no, tabetha did not give a sound answer. it just sounded “sound” because she delivered it fluently, however she did not define success she gave the requirements for success. and #18 shouldn’t have bothered answering the question if she would say there’s no perfect family. she should have just stopped there. most of them gave nonsense side comments!

    macky *_* reply on March 10th, 2008:

    hehehe! my mali ka din po..

    your statement

    “She don’t deserve it really.”

    should have been

    “She DOESN’T really deserve it”.

    Correctives:

    1. the subject (3rd person singular) – verb
    agreement, i.e., “she” and “don’t” in your
    statement.
    2. the adverb must immediately precede or succeed
    the word it modifies i.e., “deserve” and
    “really” separated by “it” in your version.
    3. you must consider the sound of the statement. the
    sound of your statement is awkward when
    compared to that of the second one.

    have a great day ahead po!

    she cant even answer a simple question
    but even though she cant answer the question perfectly
    at least came up with a simple answer
    her answer was so off
    the question was what role did her family play with her as a candidates of bb pilipinas she couldnt answer it on the first place then she just say my family was very important in my life
    ang bobo nya i dont think she understand the question clearly
    how can she be the winner she dont even deserve to won at all
    even though shes the best in gown and swimsuit and even though shes the prettiest candidates of them all she doesnt have the intelligence of a real bb pilipinas 2008 and take note world pa!
    for me #8 0r #7 should be the truly winner of bb pilipinas 2008
    kung alam ko lng na ganun lng mangyayari sa bb pilipinas d ko na sana pnagpuyatang panooren! it was suck!
    malaki syan kahihiyaan sa buong pilipnas ang bobo nya
    grabeh nakakasuka tlga, na xa ngaun ang bb pilipinas 2008

    at wag nyang idahilan ung age nya dhl mas mgaling pa mag english ung 5yrs old niece ko saknya

  64. Poor Janina, the nation almost hates your triumphant. You don’t deserve the title. Sheila is correct you’re better to go back in elementary school for remedial class, surely you will learn and could able to speak English fluently and correctly. Please, don’t be arrogant next time if someone is asking you simply, by the time the host asked you, how do you feel tonight, you’re just only answering, “No, I’m not pressure” is that a correct answer. how dare you…. All i can say, you should learn more in English language, read English reading materials and practice your pronunciation.

  65. This is the biggest travesty of the Bb. Pilipinas pageant, after Jeannie Anderson said the infamous “Quiet Please!” in 2001.

    Siguro nga, dapat gawing matindi ang screening ng mga contestants next year (Next year na naman? When will they ever learn?). Di lang maganda at matangkad na may plus factor sa international arena. She should exude confidence and grace under pressure in answering tough questions (with correct grammar usage).

    Since malayo pa naman ang Miss World, I guess i-enroll na muna siya sa isang English-speaking school. I-polish na ang English language niya para pagsabak sa Miss World, di naman mapapahiya ang Pilipinas.

    Same goes to all the winners. Madame Stella, please huwag niyo na silang i-exile sa Colombia at doon mag-train. Wala rin namang mangyayari kung doon mo sila dadalhin. Try to maximize the resources in this country.

    I WAS REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH ALL THE TITLE HOLDERS OF BB. PILIPINAS 2008. HEARING THE ANSWER OF JANINA SAN MIGUEL MADE ME SAY IN FRONT OF MY TV “BOBITA!!!” SORRY FOR THE WORD BUT YOU’RE JUST ONE OF THE GIRLS WITH BEAUTY BUT YOUR STEPPING ON YOUR BRAIN…….

    THIS MADE ME THINK THAT BB. PILIPINAS PAGEANT IS NO LONGER CREDIBLE FOR HAVING SUCH WINNERS. I WON’T BE PROUD AS A FILIPINA IF THESE CROWNED LADIES WILL BE SENT TO OTHER COUNTRIES TO COMPETE REPRESENTING PHILIPPINES.

    IT’S REALLY TRUE THAT SIMPLE QUESTIONS MOST OF THE TIME ARE THE ONES VERY HARD TO ANSWER BUT FOR THESE SIMPLE QUESTIONS, THESE ARE WAYS TO TEST YOUR ABILITY TO BE COMPETENT WITH OTHER CONTESTANTS.

    ENGLISH HAS ALWAYS BEEN PART OF OUR LANGUAGE AND IN MY OPINION, YOU HAD THE GUTS TO WEAR SWIMSUIT ON NATIONAL TELEVISION, BUT YOU FORGOT TO USE YOUR BRAINS AS WELL…….

    BEAUTY IS NOT ENOUGH TO PROVE THAT EVERYONE WILL LIKE YOU. HAVING BRAINS IS STILL VERY IMPORTANT. IT’S JUST REALLY EMBARRASING.

    YOU DON’T DESERVE TO BE WINNERS GIRLS………SORRY!!!!

  85. She was picked to be the champion to represent our country, so it is now up to the pageant committee to get Janina ready for the miss world pageant. She really has the potential to bring home the crown. She already has 2 out of 3 main ingredients to pull it off. She’s beautiful and confident/gracious of character. Intelligence (or the quality to be able to express oneself) can be learned with an excellent coach guiding her. There is still enough time to accomplish this… it’s not mission impossible. Her inability to articulate in the English language is a direct product of the Phil public school system…that’s not her fault. I agree that she should have answered in Tagalog but then the question was in English…that’s why she tried her best to answer it in English (which as everyone saw was a disaster.) Unlike other contestants who had private school education (but still failed miserably to impress me), Janina had to make the best of what her family can afford, and that is public school. Yes, she was a freshman mass comm. student at UE for a semester because she knows she has to improve her communication skills. Maybe more details of her background is needed by the public for them to be able to come up with a fair assesment of her. Until then, all the negative write-ups she’s been getting are all out-of-line and unfair. I just hope people will know more about her and give her their support, and that she hasn’t lost her confidence because of all the negative publicity. GO Janina… make us proud… prove to us that you deserve to represent the Philippines.

    Don’t blame public schools for inability to speak English. It’s the person’s own upbringing. If she can’t express herself in English, why not answer in a language that she can confidently deliver? It’s just a matter of how you carry yourself in a difficult situation. If you’re easily rattled, you don’t deserve to win the crown.

    …but the point is, the pageant is supposedly a pageant of women who are not only beautiful but also “INTELLIGENT”. how can the pageant be obviously dependable if two its fundamental yet major criteria are deliberately disregarded or breached to give way to its organizers’ or whoever else’s satisfaction by making the “favorite-without-brain” win? agree?

    P.S.: trying her best, though, would not merit a good remark because her “best” wasn’t the best at all! for her “best” to merit a high sounding remark, her “best” should have been the correct usage of English! Moreover, scapegoating, like “she’s only a college freshman”, cannot absolve her from her weakness. it’s just like somebody who cannot be absolved from punishment for the offense he committed, though he claims “ignorance about the law”.

Come to think of it guys, dba ang mga judges and pumipili kung sino ang magre-represent ng mga beauty titles? If you agree, then all I can say is that the JUDGES ARE THE REAL DUMB ONES, not Miss San Miguel.

Well, di lang naman siya yung may nakatawang sagot, there’s this one contestant from the top 10 na idol daw si Mother Theresa and she said “Let’s do her.” LOL :) )

  89. Janina San Miguel has the best poise and ramp skill of all candidates. It is not the content of her answer nor English grammar, it is the confidence and poise which she exhibited. Remember how Yvonne Ryding of Sweden did the same thing in the Q&A, well she romped the Miss Universe title. Pinky Amabuyoc, Miss Philippines to Miss World in 1968, was a very good ramp model,exhibited quiet charm, got criticized by Phil press for having artificial teeth and no beauty. SHe place placed 4th in Miss World and was the choice of the betting odds. Folks in the Philippines, judging candidates based on English skills is one colonial mentality we have inherited from USA> Listen how barbaric the English of most Latin and European candidates are in beauty pageants- but they still command attention and emerge winners. If you think it takes good command of English to win these days, you are out of touch. Foreign TV audiences and judges are captivated by innate charm and poise, not English skills. Get that !

    let me just add my reply, so you are talking about those Latin and etc.. contestants who speak barbaric English, do you want our representative to be like that? you should know the true meaning of pride and being proud then, she doesn’t fit frankly because she doesn’t have wits..yes she can learn English, but it’s not the point, the problem is she doesn’t know how to answer questions, if you are going to analyze her answer you will be annoyed , because even if you translate that into good English that will do no good. The answer itself was still, well out of nowhere.

  90. I salute the courage of San Miguel.. kahit out of this world na sinasabi nya sige lang, tatapusin nya linya nya. Alam nya sasabihin nya ang problema ndi nya matranslate in english kaya iba-iba sinasabi nya.

    Aminin man natin sa hindi sya lang talaga may dating nung gabi… stand out beauty sya that night.. malaki talga percentage ng long gown and swimsuit sa criteria as MW candidate.. fast track ang labanan dun sa Ms World na kahit bobo ka eh basta may ganda ka pasok ka sa finals. Positive naman ako sa magiging outcome nya kasi bata pa at malakas ang loob. Ung trainer na lang siguro nya ang bahala dun.

  91. well, i agree with one of the comments that its not just really about knowing how to speak in English that makes a winner, shes quite charming and poised inspite of her booboo. to maintain that kind of calmness and confidence when the crowd was practically laughing hysterically is no easy feat. I agree too, that she can be transformed with comm training. The judges saw something in her that we just didnt see yet, who knows, she might be a diamond in the rough.. To her mentors, pls train her well. it will not be easy though =)

    Very disappointed ako talaga sa sagot ng candidate #15 nanghihinayang ako considering she’s got the two major special award best in Swimsuit & Best in Long Gown, bet ko sya talaga from the start kasi napaka stunning nya kaya lang talaga bumagsak sya sa question and answer portion. Iha! magiging problema mo yan pag nagrepresent ka na internationally lalo pa sa Miss World Pageant na sobrang laki ng discremation, dapat siguro Mrs. Araneta pag aralin yan sa Speech Power tutal naman sa November pa ang laban nya medyo mahaba haba pa ang panahon para magkaroon sya ng confident at mahusay na pananalita esp. in English Language. Ang akala ko nga candidate #13 ang lalabas kasi medyo maayos pa ang sagot nya. (n replace to #15). From start alam ko na rin ang lalabas #7, #15 at #2 kaya lang nga nasira ang #15 sa Q & A.
    Si candidate #7 from the start alam ko na lalabas kaya lang di ko alam kong World Or Universe pero talagang maganda sya – sa picture lang medyo chubby sya dapat siguro medyo mag pa slim pa sya, ksi alam ko sa Int’l. Pageant kailangan talaga slim talaga ang built ng katawan at pag rumampa sa swimsuit at long gown mabilis at gracefull ang movement. Si candidate #8 bagay talaga sya sa runner’s up kasi tingin ko sa kanya “chubby” sya pero may looks naman sya. Kailangang kayong tatlo (3) ay magkaroon ng intensive training sa mga magagaling na coacher sa speech power I’ll recommend Anthony Pangilinan to do the coach para sa pagsasalita at Mr. Osmel Souza sa pagrampa (coach of Miriam Quiambao). Ganoon pa man ang naging tingin ng tao sa candidate #15 – huwag naman nating masyadong i down ang pagkatao nya, isipin na lang natin na masyadon syang na excite at she made the cut to 10. Tulungan nating ma bost ang kanyang morale para naman sa laban nya ay hindi sya mawalan ng pag asa at magkaroon sya ng confident sa sarili. Ang tamang sagot kasi san tanong #15 ay simply like his “My family did a special role for being very supportive to me from start when I joining the Binibining Pilipinas Pageant, Thank you”. di ba puede ganyan lang ang sagot ok na. We’ll anyway pagbutihin nyong 3 san Int’l. Pageant at gumawa kayo ng pre’empt question na possible na pueding itanong sa inyo kapag na doon na kayo sa mga respective location ng inyong contest. Good Luck to all of you—kaya doubt ako Miss Universe kong manalo tayo kasi ang reigning Miss Universe ay Miss Japan which came from the land of Asia Group–but don’t you worry girl…kahit makapasok ka lang san semi-finalist ok na yon.

You’re representing our country. She didn’t have to try sooo hard to speak in English. Tagalog is just fine. We’re all Filipinos, she’s a Filipina. Plus, she could have avoided all these criticism.

    I would suggest to BPCI and to Mrs. Estella Marquez de Araneta next year the Binibining Pilipinas Beauty Pageant to do one (1) Question and Answer to the Final (5). (the universe, world and int’l. respectively). Kailangan yong 3 major awards ay gawing isang tanong lamang para malaman ang bigat ng sagot ng bawat isa ( like the past format of Miss Universe which the Final 2 has one question to be answered ) at yong may pinaka magandang sagot sa tatlo ang syang magkakamit ng pinaka mataas na score o ira rank into Miss World (dahil mas mataas yata nag antas ng World), 2nd is Miss Universe and 3rd is Miss Int’l. The semi finalist who made the cut into 10 ang may prelimenary questions dapat dito ang mga questions ang iba-iba (like the usual format of BCPI), then the Final 5 has (1) question to be answered at ira rank into 2nd & 1st runner’s up and then yong 3 for the world, universe and int’l. At saka I would suggest na kapag pinili na yong semi finalist huwag naman kapag ka Q&A portion naka 2 piece sila.Dapat naman during interview portion doon sa Long Gown Competition segment gawin ang Q&A para naman mas desenting tingnan ang mga beauty’s kapag ka tinatanong sila at di nakabandera ang kanilang katawan habang tinatanong. Like yong format ng Miss Universe – (Parade of Nations-pagpapakilala ng bawat isa, 2nd Choosing the Semi Finalist dressed in Bestida na pare pareho ang yari. The 10 or 15 Semi Finalist ang maglalaban sa Swimsuit & Long Gown segment. Sa format ng Miss Universe ginagawa nila ang Q&A pag katapos ng Long Gown segment then announcing the Best in Long Gown and Miss Photogenic, the next the much awaited Coronation. Hindi masamang gumaya ng format ng konti sa Miss Universe. I know na dapat ang presentation ay Pinoy Touch at may uniqueness pero sa ganda ng sequences at format ng Miss Universe dapat gawain nating ganoon, anyway we are in 20’s, global na tayo ngayon-sana maging hightech naman tayo. I like the Long Gown segment in this Binibining Pilipinas 2008 kung saan habang rumarampa sila nag se serenade naman ang makaluma nating tugtugin-da best talaga-ito yong talagang pinoy presentation pero sana yong na una kung suggestions ay gawain natin para sa mas magandang presentasyon. Again to the Final 3 – you’ll have to take intensive training in preparation of the said Major Int’l. Pageant. Best of Luck to everyone.

Bkit kaya ganun yung punctuation nya at grammar? ‘di naman pipitsuging school ang UE ah, FYI there are two candidates studying from UE, Ms. Janina from UE – Recto and the other one from UE – Caloocan and a tourism student. Di ko alam name nung isa pero pareho ko na silang nakita at syempre pareho silang maganda.

BAgo pa ang pageant alam na ng organizer kung sino ang tatanghalan bb.pilipinas kahit anong kapalpakan o kagalingan pa ng candidate kung sya na ang nakatakdang manalo, sya na… kaya nga next time wag na kayong magpagent para mangolekta ng sponsorship kinakuarta nyo lang ang mga company na sponsor sa pageant instead bigyan nyo nalang ng title ang gusto nyong babae para maging ms.world atleast hinde pa nakakihya sa part ng babae ang maging BOBO sa buong mundo!!!! pinapakita nyo lang sa buong mundo ang kawalang hiya ng pilipino sa larangan ng beauty pageant. At bilang TFC nakakahiya man pero hindi kasalanan ni janina ang maging ms.world naaawa ako para sa kanya.. paano nalang kaya sya nakakatulog sa mga mura ng tao sa kanya…. At para sa organizer sana makarma ka sa ginagawa mo!!!!

  112. Luto yun, and the fact that there are foreign judges… Ambassadors fr. japan and the USA, actually nagulat sila. I\’ve talked to an attache hehe their ambassador was shocked s results. also Amb. Kenney was speechless.( i work in the diplomatic world thats y I know they are hiding the dismay they felt in that competition. Pinag-judge pa sila kung lulutuin lng ang pageant! may politika na yan kc eh. plus no#15 got the best in swim suit and long gown awards so, i think indi impt. ung Q and A…

    I have so much respect the bb.pilipinas competion, but it is not as glorious as it was before. To think that some girls who are dreaming to join the contest are studying VERy well, taking care of their precious selves and building a carreer, just to be part of that prestigious competition and to live one of their dreams. (that’s my plan and so as the other girls out there) and I have to admit I’m planning to join bb.pilipinas, when my right time comes.

    -> kaya lang ung nangyari this year kakaintimidate.

    nawala ung respeto ko sa pageant. and speaking pati si Mother Theressa, gasgas na sa contest… wag nmn po gawing safe answer si Mother THEresa. lagi n lng sya sinasagot eh,

    Tc.

    CONGRATS to all the winners!

  114. ACCORDING TO MELANIE MARQUEZ: “OK LANG MAGKAMALI KA BASTA MAGANDA KA” ( based on the tv patrol news ive watched) Pour moi, its not right. its a fallacious statement. dahil pag napasok mo ang working arena at ang matured world, you have to be competitive. You do not want to be called by someone na nahired lang because of your beauty, or mamaliitin ka’t indi pakikinggan. ganyan ba ang binibuilt nila?
    sabihin n nting may malaking kakulangan ang edukasyon sa pilipinas… PERO MAGKAGANUN PA MAN, NASA TAONG NAGSISIKAP YAN PRA MALAMAN ANG BASIC ENGLISH, KAHIT KULANG ANG BUKS OR TULOG ANG TEACHER MO NOON, MAGBASA KA AT MAGPRACTICE PWEDE NA.

    SANA DIN LANG PARENTS AND MANAGERS who are building a girl’s capacity to be a beautyqueen must give full support on their girls education esp. communication skills not just on having theis skin bathed with milk, having nails done and posture, modelling and their attitude as well.

    lahat nmn tayo may kapintasan, kaya lng dapat inaayos para indi mapahiya. dapat marunong ding makinig.
    that’s a lesson to janina
    “syempre wala n syang pagsisisi, kc pinanalo xya eh”
    nanalo sya
    AS FOR JANINA; MARKADO KA NA, you can never erase what happened and what you did, being a 17 yr old is not an excuse.
    good luck sa ms. world. mag aral ka wag ka matulog sa Klase!

    think:what would be the implication of her winning the title to the kids who are still studying?

    Granted lhat tayo kinakabahan, at nagkakamali, pero la tlgang sense ung sinabi nya!

    this is not a violent reaction, its the reality we have to deal with.

    we are living in a third world country kaya dapat the winner is the creme de la creme of all contestant,national contest pa lng to, what more sa int’l pageant.

    Mahirap din kung may translator, baka maiba ang sagot mo sa thought ng translator.

    au revoir

    Nakakatawa mga comment dito. Kung magsalita ang gagaling magIngles, hindi naman.

    Hindi naman malaking kawalan sa mga buhay nyo ang pagkapanalo ni Janina. Ang dapat nyo maisip pano nyo matutulungan lahat ng mga nag-aaral na masagad ang matututunan nila sa klase para hindi sila matulad.

    Sa lahat ng nagcomment dito, sumali kayo sa pageant. Sige na. Madali lang pala. Marunong lang mag-ingles pwede na. Sige sumali kayo, tignan natin kung san kayo pupulutin. Isali nyo na din katulong nyo. Isali nyo na din anak nyo, nanay nyo, basta coniotic at inglisero. Okay yan, dapat manalo. Challenge yan sa lahat ng malakas magsalita at may sariling opinion.

    Sa lahat ng tao sa mundo, sa tingin ko mga Pilipino ay isa sa mga pinaka-walang kwenta ang ugali. Magaling magsalita, walang gawa.

    Mapa-beauty pageant, mapa pulitika, mapa-personal na buhay.

    Puro dadak, walang hatak.

    Good luck na lang sa ating lahat.

  124. I’m fun of watching beauty pageant when I was still in Pinas as in live and I felt sorry what I’ve read with all the comments here. Isn’t it really a craft? But they are really beautiful. Wala ba talagang brains. Ano kaya yun? ANong ginawa nila? Pano nanalo? Hay buti narin lang diko na napapanood mga ganyan kung ganyan din lang.
