yes, beauty pageants are usually out of context nowadays.akala kasi ng marami pag magaling sumagot reyna nah…hehehehe. dapat sa quiz bee or speech contest sila isali…haaaayyyy
Just a fun FACT for you guys. Since she’s from Casiguran, Aurora she contested in the bb. Casiguran pageant but lost. She came in 2nd place which was a big upset since she was a favorite (her mother and friends were sponsors of the contest). She lost to a Jonalyn Quiles, you can google her pic.
It seems no celebrity who serenade the finalist, what a show? With regards to the winner hope she could stand out in the int’l scene despite her height if she really know’s how to present herself like Ms Mona Grut, a Miss Univesrse during the 90’s. Good luck and mabuhay!
correction it is AURORA PROVINCE not AURORA QUEZON thanks 🙂
Corrected! 😉
hindi po Quezon province ang pinangalingan ni Athena Imperial, AURORA Province po sa pagitan ng Isabela at Nueva Ecija… Salamat…
kuya normz, i hope i’ll be wrong in my impression to her being just a clapper come nov. 12 😦 we need delegates in complete package…which is so hard to find these days…
i feel the same, carlo. 😦
make the cut i mean
cut off parang bangko
she’s quite small
i think this is another year that the phl will not make the cut off
I have the same gut-feel about her. She may have the environmental smarts for the title, but her over-all impact as a beauty delegate for international competition may pale in comparison once the ladies from all over the world start arriving in Pattaya by the 2nd half of October.
low standard for miss phils earth clapper of BB. are more standout than this lady
