You can say all you want. Roxanne Cabanero is riding on the wave of being Venus Raj’s look-alike. Earlier last month, she was shown on GMA-7’s Saturday afternoon “good samaritan” show “Wish Ko Lang where she expressed her hopes of joining the Binibining Pilipinas and possibly follow the footsteps of her idol and deadringer, Venus Raj. Nothing wrong with that. The girl has the height and exotic looks to dream Beauty Queen-big. She even had encounters with people who mistake her for Venus and rode along for fun.

Fast forward to the announcement of the Bb. Pilipinas 2011 Official Candidates. The girl went through the rigorous screenings and had the good fortune of making it to the list of 40. And if she plays her cards right and ends up in the winning circle, the achievement will be a major, major step from her days as a Miss Mandaue candidate.

But aside from looks, does she have the right moves and X-factor appeal to do a Venus Raj? My answer is no. She is no clone of our Bb. Pilipinas-Universe 2010. She is still raw and unpolished. But is she a potential beauty queen? My answer is maybe. She is an Official Candidate, right? And if she buckles down to diligently doing her homework and instilling the desired attitude and discipline needed to be one, then my answer might just be a tentative yes! 😉

  2. In the interest of academics, let me provide an objective comparison of Roxanne and the Raina, the girl who is purported to be her.

    Their facial similarities are indeed uncanny, right down to the tips of their noses and the corners of their eyes.

    Let’s compare the proportions of their bodies. I’ve censored the photo, just to be able to compare the two girls.

    As you can see, they have similar proportions, even similarly located (similar) bellybuttons.

    But, the most uncanny of similarities I’ve noticed is their fingers, which are rather VERY similar, right up to their fingernails and how the contours of the bone structure match.

    Again, I’m not trying to say that the two girls are one and the same. You be the judge. The thing is, with how beauty pageants are actually run, the politics involved in it, and the hypocrisy of people in distinguishing the decency of a woman in a skimpy bathing suit, who is really calling the kettle black?

  3. kawawa naman si roxanne… xa ba tlga ung may nasa scandal pictures? kamukha naman tlga nya 😀 pero ung beauty nya kasi parang dami kapareha..

    • I highly doubt it if the girl in that photo is really Roxanne. But the damage has been done and she has already pulled out of the competition.
