Bb. Pilipinas 2012 candidate #15 Elaine Kay Moll
Elaine Kay Moll can always lay claim to the fact that she is the tallest candidate in Bb. Pilipinas 2012 representing Northern Samar (though she was born in Buhi, Camarines Sur). Whiffs taller than 5’10”, she has the height envied upon by the other girls who have to contend themselves with wearing really tall heels (or platformed heels) to minimize being dwarfed beside her. A former member of the women’s basketball team of NU (National University) Bulldogs, she underwent some major (non-invasive) transformation from shooting hoops and wearing Nike Airs to walking the runway and fitting elegant evening gowns and swimwear.
Aces & Queens should be given full credit in molding Elaine’s beauty queen potentials. She may not have the most entrancing face among the 30 delegates, but she scores high in other areas. Her charm is the type that wouldn’t grab at you in an instant. Instead, she kind of projects the aura of Catherine Jane Brummitt (BPI1984) whose beauty grows on another individual after spending some time in her company.
I heard from the grapevine that Elaine is one of the favorites of BPCI Head Stella Marquez de Araneta. The latter must love her height (which cannot be negotiated in any humanly possible way), innocent looks and compliant ways. But then again, she needs to do her part in impressing the judges because SMA can only do so much in sounding them off.
How high will Elaine Kay Moll move up in the competition? Will she give the constant favorites a real fight for one of the titles?

i think she’s just tall
that’s it.
Her height might just carry her thru. You can never deny that this is her might. That and her great bone structure. Honestly I think she might just fall a bit short capturing one of the crowns though and will probably just end up as a runner up. Despite Bb being her second national pageant, Elaine comes up as someone who is timid and raw as opposed to the fierce and highlt competitive attitude of the other pageant veterans in her batch.
Bridget — That’s an insightful assessment of Elaine Moll.
let’s face it, height is might!!! but it’s not everything…there were so many tall candidates in miss u pageants but did they place? look what happened to miss peru 2011 natalie, or miss paraguay who’re 2 of the tallest candidates…6 ft. tall…they even dwarfted shamcey….
well said!
Marc — You’re right. Height isn’t everything. But also consider that the average height of the 16 semifinalists at Miss Universe 2011 was about 5’9″ — China being the tallest semifinalist at 6′ and Shamcey being the shortest semifinalist at just slightly over 5’7″. While height is not always might, height is still one of the standards by which potential winners are measured in international pageants, subliminally or decisively, along with their other vital statistics.
just another tomboy trying to disprove her detractors that she is not…..she’s like a walking wood,tall but hard.
I agree! With what she has been showing, she does not have the winning vitality just yet. She can still come back next year.
As I said earlier, Elaine’s mentor should recommend an expert make up artist to do her make-up a-la- HONEY LEE (Miss Korea 2007 and MU 3RU)… tha’t’s the only scenario that I can think of ELAINE MOHL’s fight on the final night…. from top 10 to magic 6……….
Koala — Great suggestion.
