Many thoughts are running inside Christine's head right now. Re-joining Bb. Pilipinas is one of them.

I was chatting with her on Messenger earlier this week.
“How sad last january when bpci made me resign as a candidate.” 😦
“…I want to go back to bbp next year coz its my dream and everyone is encouraging me to go back…”
“It’s my dream to win a crown and next year is the last chance for me.” 😦
I can only rely on her sentiments and not push any further as to why she got removed from the roster of Bb. Pilipinas 2015 Official Candidates. There was really no formal revelation of the actual reason/s behind the same (which I seriously believe is not about her being deaf). And I can feel the strong desire in her to return and give it one final try. Whatever the case was last January must’ve been settled/properly clarified by now.
If there are no hurdles too high to surmount or legalities/rules to bend, then I am quite supportive of her wish. She wants to ready herself for the Bb. Pilipinas 2016 screenings early next year.
And if her camp, Aces & Queens, is game about preparing her once more, then I can only say “Go for it!”. 🙂

Is it true that the reason for her disqualification at BBP was the airing of her life story at MMK during the contest period? Whatever it is, it is already “water under the bridge”. However, if she is still qualified for MWP, I think she would be an excellent representative to this Beauty With A Purpose pageantry. The novelty of it all– a physically challenged spokesperson, a competitive paddler-cum-ramp model, an exotic beauty from a Third World country– would be a tremendous value-adding points to the MW brand. In today’s noisy troubled world, where the voice of reason and compassion is easily drowned out by political harangues from the high and the mighty, a nonverbal message can resonate more effectively. I believe a physically challenged MW will not only be a good role model for the youth, but will also be an effective influencer to corporate sponsors about the “beauty in giving”.
She can join modeling pageant international. ANTM, there are pageant that are not looking for spokeperson.
Pahinga na sya sa pageant.
Tama na nang naging inspirasyon sya ng mga pipi at bingi.
Sa totoo lang hindi naman sya “beauty queen” material.
Na highlight lang ang pagiging pipi ang bingi sa circuit ng beauty pageant.
agree
Huwag na neng.
Im sure the reason why she was removed is because of her nude photos. She has been modeling for a long time with a lot of sexy pictorials and ive seen a couple around.
kaya siguro mum na rin ang bpci para ma protektahan ng slight image nya.
pero sa tono ng pananalita (well, ng chat convo) nya with tito norms, hopeful na hopeful pa si ateng. so her disqualification must be caused by something tentative. i dont think someone disqualified for nude photos would think of rejoining since alam naman na nya na hindi sya matatanggap.
i don’t see a winner in her. Sorry but i think hindi sya maganda
No offense meant but if Balaquer wins, how will she be a spoke person (literally) if she is deaf and or mute?
I get that she can win with that face ; no question . Will there be an interpreter all the time along her side to be with with the press ? What if she wins the Universe title ? How will she represent PI? To Donald Trump ? Chances are so slim i suppose.
I do not hate the idea ( of Balaquer winning ) – but i do not it love either.My point is let us be practical . But that s just me .
Btw …@ Norman, on the picture of Balaquer wearing black and white , may i know the lady wearing green long sleeves and lady in white ? They are gorgeous .
Edi ibigay sa kanya ang Tourism title.. mahirap ba yun?!
