Maria Gigante: after a 3rd place finish in Miss Cebu 2013, should she set her sights on BBP2013?
With a big bold surname like Gigante (or giant), Maria should find no difficulty achieving quick recall. But then again, we’re not after such. This pretty Cebuana recently took part in Miss Cebu 2013 where she finished 2nd Runner-Up to crowned half-Indian Namrata Murjani. Not bad for a pageant newbie. So do you think she is ready to go national?
I know that it’s a bit too soon to plunge into another beauty contest, and a major one at that. But should this lady give it some serious thought, she has a good outside chance of outshining the early entrants…even some of her fellow Cebuanas. Thoughts, dear readers? 
Maria has an exotic quality that’s very Pinay!
Being a philosophy student, I think she could answer well as long as she does not get her nerves over her. She’s one of those exotic looking gals from Cebu who I think could be stunning on stage.
Another strong candidate! She has the good foundation to begin with. The face of a Pinay without make up. Instantly turns into a fierce Latina- looking lady when fully made up!
She’s very, very, pretty – her features are definitely Pinay. Just saw the coronation of Miss Cebu 2013 on You-tube and honestly, my eyes were drawn to this girl. With some training – catwalk, body, and most importantly poise and public speaking, she can possibly be another fave at the 2013 Miss Universe. In the three profile, face pics, she looks very exotic, looking a bit like Kim Kardashian (who, btw.. is a knock out) so this could play in her favor. Wish her the best of luck!
YES YES YES !!!! she is beautiful and exotic and all that…. but has any of you seen the miss cebu pageant? this girl BOMBED BIG TIME! she pulled a janina san miguel! she just laugh and laugh and couldnt even answer not one but TWO q and a questions…. !!!!! watch it on youtube and see if you would even dare have this girl represent philippines after janine’s stellar performance in miss u. it would be utterly embarassing if this girl even dare to enter bb. pilipinas.
Nerves got the better of this newbie, admittedly, on the coronation night. This Philo major at the University of San Carlos is otherwise is a very articulate young lady who’ll be a national asset someday. I’ll put my bet on her after a year (technically, all of the Miss Cebu court can not join anymore any other pageant during their reign) so that will give ample time for Maria to polish her big guns and shine.
SO SWEET OF YOU ORLY!
ciara sotto deadringer with her full make-up on
She looks far more attractive and younger with less make up on, IMO. Her natural features are almost obliterated with the rather thick exaggerated make up she’s wearing in her other photos to the point that her real face has become almost unrecognizable.
Why not? She is a looker and can turn heads! Geeeesh… if she does join the other stunners that have submitted their applications, this is going to be one heck of a year for our country!!! Crowning is going to be a VERY tough decision. I hope the judges have their heads on straight when the time comes for crowning the winners. I do not envy the judges. They have some very tough decisions to make… Of course, there is the Madame Stella’s influence on their decisions so I hope she has her head screwed on straight as well.
Wow!
Oozing with sex appeal.
Full of potentials, Miss Universe for her.
I can see Zuleyka in her.
She has a Halle Berry smile.
