Miss Philippines Air 2016 Kiara Giel Gregorio

Kiara and I

In times like this, the 1st Runner-Up is always a significant presence. After Miss Philippines Earth 2016 Imelda Bautista Schweighart resigned from her title last night, the succession is perceived as automatic. Her Miss Philippines Air 2016 – Kiara Giel Gregorio – should be returning from her home in London, UK anytime soon to assume the responsibilities left vacant. And the whirlwhind ascent to the crown should not be a problem, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

It will be remembered back in May that Kiara was my predicted #1 bet to win Miss Philippines Earth 2016 (with Imelda as #2). I was so certain that time that this sweet young lass had all the makings of a perfect Miss Earth representative. Unfortunately, she fell just one placement short of that.

Miss Earth 2016 may now be over. But the duties inherent in the remaining seven (7) months of the Miss Philippines Earth 2016 titleholder still continue. And I believe that it is fate saying that Kiara should have been and will soon be the wearer of the crown.

So pack your bags, Kiara! Ready or not, you will be offered the title as fast as a London Eye moment. 😉

      • Yup tama naman sya. Dba si almodal na mismo nagsabi na gusto nya damitan ang pinay. So bakit pa kinuha kay imee dba. Baliw man sya o hinde. Kumg sa kanya mo una inalok ang gown na yan. Sa kanya mo pa rin ipapasuot. Oo sa kanya yan sya masusunod. So sa ginawa nya d maiiwasan na isali sa issue ang mukang pera or anything. Oo hinde nya natapos ang gown ni ecuador pero may ibang options eh..dame nya collection dba? So bakit ung kay imee pa. Im sure may iba pa syang collection na hinde pa nairarampa. So sana un nalang para hinde din sayang o kung gamit na ok lang naman basta kasya at maganda at bagay kay ecuador.
        So ayan lalo lumaki ang issue. Haysss. Enebenemenyen!!

  4. TAMA AKO!

    yellow gown has its own story to tell!

    isa lang masasabi ko……..”KALOKA KA MOMMY LEAH AL MOWDHEL!!!

    Chandelier na ginawang long gown!

    Creation by famewhore LEAH AL MOWDHEL!!!

    Hahahahahaha! 🙂

    • Lumabas ang tunay na ugali ng baklitang Almodal na yan! Kasalanan nya lahat ang nangyaring pagwawala ni Imelda.
      Hindi dapat pagkatiwalaan ang katulad nya sariling kapakanan ang uunahin kahit ikakasama ng iba.

  5. Meron na bang balita kung sino gagawa ng evening gown ni 4M for MU2016? Sana may gown for prelims, then may pasabog na gown for the finals ulit.

  6. In regards to Imelda’s behaviour, she can’t keep using her age for making mistakes… It just doesn’t make sense. She kept doing these things that would harm her reputation. I thought she would’ve stopped after the hitler comment she made but she kept on going? And you can’t justify those behaviours with “age”. And in the one of her interviews, she said it was not very makabayan that someone posted a video of her bashing Miss Ecuador because it was harming her privacy… BUT in all honesty, it’s the same thing as her telling her fans about Ecuador’s cosmetic surgeries. So what if Ecuador confessed to Imee na nagparetoke siya. Thats NOT enough of a reason for Imee to share that conversation with other people, kahit fans niya. Wala sa position si Imee to spread that around. It’s harming Ecuador’s privacy as well.

    HOWEVER, about this gown issue. naloloka ako. I have no idea kung sino ang nagiging truthful. I

  7. Dear Leo, Why don’t you prepare 2 gowns for ur future clients? One in case the candidate doesn’t make the cut and one when she makes the count. Kung free pareho eh di kuhain mo pagkatapos gamitin. Be smart instead of ranting on social.

    • Gaga ksi si vaklah! Pa Peymus! Famewhore ka beks! Sana nababasa si Leah Almowdehl lahat ng comments dito.

    • I understand that as an artist you want your creation to be showcased but still, hindi pa rin okay that Imelda was left hanging…. Hindi ko alam kung sinong panig ang nagsasalita ng totoo but Leo was given the task to dress Imee. Kahit na hindi nagoffer si Imee and KF to pay him, he still agreed to make a dress for her. Nung hindi nakapasok si Imee sa semis, of course ayaw masayang ni Leo ang gown na gnawa. Gets ko na pinasuot nya kay Ecuador yung gown para maipakita nya sa madlang people ang gawa nya. BUT what about Imee? What about kung respunsibilidad nya to dress her up. Hindi naman okay na bigyan lang siya ng dress na similar to another contestant.

      • Tama! Kasalanan ni Almodal yan kaya nagwala ang Imelda. Sa puntong iyom di ko masisi si Imelda. Imagine basta na lsng binawi ang gown dahil di nakapasok sa top 16? Di pa man tapos ang pageant at kelangan pang maggown ang mga talunan. Pumayag syang bihisan si Imelda tapos iiwan nya sa ere? Kesehodang hindi pa nagbayad ang kampo nya. Ang lupit mo Almodal, ibang klase ka masunod lang gusto mong maidisplay ang gawa mo kahit hindi tama gagawin mo. Bakla ka pa naman ang pangit ng ugali mo!

    • Dear 4M,

      Mr. Leo, Almodal is not rich like you to provide the candidates with 2 new gowns in pageant, business is business, cguro kung ikaw ang desginer matagal ng lubog ang business mo… isipin din natin ang side ng mga designer hindi lahat libre take a note hindi mura ang gown.. dahil kung mura lahat mewron.

      Isip Isip din di porke 4M.

      • Pero di pa rin tama yung ginawa nya na kumuha sya ng client kahit alam nyang hindi nya kayang i-deliver. Sya na may sabi na 3 months ang kailangan para magawa ang 1 gown. Porke malakas ang laban ni Ecuador oo agad sya. Tapos nung hindi nya nagawa pull-out sya ng gown na nakalaan na sa ibang client nya. Wala na ba syang ibang reserve gown na pwede nya ipasuot kay Ecuador? Bakit hindi yung red gown na inalok nya kay imelda.

      • RuffaMegan,

        He has so many gowns in his collection that he can provide another one that’s been made before. Ano ba beh pwede naman maging resourceful no? Look at what happened to Pia. The gown she wore was a design meant to be sold not to compete.

      • Nag offer nmn pala si leo ng gown kay bruhang imelda, kaso maarete ang lola mo… hindi na nga naka pasok sa top 16 maarte pa.i-sempre kung ikaw ba nmn designer maa gusto mo makitang naka balandra ang gown mo sa top 16 kesa waley…. and beside nag bayad pala si miss ecuador eh si miss philippines waley nmn pala duty free….tpos nagkataon yong gown no miss ecuador unfinsh product pala ni tita leo…. kaya yon switching na lang sorry to imelda waley siyang undah….hehehehe… fun fun fun mga beks…..

  8. Hinde ko sinasabing masama si leo. Pero hinde ko din gusto ang pagka unfair nya. Alam ko na ang sisihin nyan si SMA kaya sya ganyan. Pero d ko rin sya masisisi. Tapos na yon. Sabi nya si janicel na ang last pinay queen na dadamitan nya eh bakit may iba pa sya dinadamitan at si imee pinaasa nya. Kahit pa hinde sya nakapsok sa top 16. Dapat pinasuot pa rin nya eh. Unfair sya. Gusto nya lang talaga ng fame. Eh kung ayaw nya masayang ang gown eh d pinasuot pa rin kay imee mapapansin pa din naman yon or itabi nalang nyA at ipasuot sa next pinay queen para d sayang dba. At least pinay ang nagsuot.sinaktan nya lang lalo si imee. Ke kanya yon libre or not ang usapan usapan. He choose fame over being fairly at tumupad sa usapan…gown ang dahilan kaya siniraan ni imee si ecuador eh. So its leo’s fault. Ginusto pa nya talaga mapansin ang gown nya eh kilala na naman sya kaya nga may mag suki syang foreigners. Sana nagdala nalang sya ng option gowns for ecuador at hinde ung yellw gown ni imee ang pinasuot. Last minute na nagpagawa si ecuador eh baket pumayag pa sj leo maggawa alam naman pala nya na hinde nya matatapos yan dahil sya na nagsabi 3 months or 4 months b4 the pageant nagsabi na. Tapos nag iiba pa pala sya ng kwento. Poor imee….

  9. So wala lang dadamitan si almodal? May rift na sila ng Kf. Ayaw ng BPCI sa kanya. A&Q they opt for sosyal designers like gan samuya manilag libiran andrada cinco gowns.

    Pang mutya na lang si leo.

    Greedy greedy leo.. karma is after you now.

    Back to bridal ka na lang teh

      • Ayaw matawag na mommy,, arte arte ni vaklah! Ano gusto nya daddy? Imang nga tawag niya ke imelda eh, baka gusto niya sunod sa name niya, Leah Almowdehl!

      • I think Leo feels na hindi sila ganun ka close to be called mommy. Probono na ang gowns niya so salamat kay Leo.

      • Dito naman sa issue na to. Gets ko kung bakit na offend si Leo. Leo is a gay man. That is his sexual orientation. But regarding his gender, again he identifies as a male. Bakit mo nga naman tatawagin ang lalaki ng “mommy”. Why would u address him as a female eh hindi naman siya babae. If he wants to be addressed as a male, then we address him as a male because thats what the wants. BUT leo did not have to act like that…. He exploded like a bomb? Parang ang bilis naman nyang magalit. He could’ve just informed Imee that he doesn’t want to be called mommy. Hindi yung magagalit na lang and magaasume na Imee is making fun of him

      • TThen dont call someone with their nicknames diba? He could have called her Ms. Schweighart, or Ms. Imee or Ms. Imelda. Right? Tinawag siyang Imang so ang dating ke imee close sila.

      • If you look at the time frame, after 3 days pa nagreply si Imelda. If i’m the designer who is willing to give a pro bono, mabibwiset talaga ako.

      • @Erwann, but Imelda must have established it from the get-go that she can be called Imang. Kaya Leo addressed her that way. But just by looking at this convo, it looks like that was the first time Imee called Leo “mommy” which made him furious. (Again, I still think Leo should’ve handled it a lot more calmly)

      • Leo’s messages were kind of uncalled for here imo. He could’ve have corrected her calmly pero nag-threaten pa. He was unprofessional at despite Imelda’s unsavory behavior mali rin naman yung ginawa niya re: gown issue. Paano na lang kung nakapasok yung dalawa sa top 16? Kung hindi si Imelda yung kawawa, si Ecuador naman (na nagbayad pala para sa gown niya; hindi ko alam kung anong drama ni Leo pero kasi he should’ve known that a very short notice order won’t really work, unless may ready-to-wear gowns siya na nakatabi talaga).

  10. Hindi ko maarok ang ganitong eksena, luging lugi si Kiara.

    If I can compare this sa isang eksena sa bekiserye e parang inubos ng isang baklitang oportunista ang lakas at katas ng isang super hunk.
    At ng maaksidente at magulungan ng super bus ang super hunk at naging paralisado, hindi na kayang tumayo ang mga dapat tumayo.
    Wala ng katas, tuyo na at wala ng lakas ay bigla na lang e-exit ang baklitang buwaya de bomba at mapupunta lahat ang responsibilidad sa isang taga barriong bakla na walang alam kundi ang magmahal, masaktan at magmahal muli.

    • First time i agree with you basil. Matapos magamit ang cash prize, aalis na! Hahaha

  11. The story is now getting thicker and thicker. Ang dami ng nagsalita. Sino ang nagsasabi ng totoo, sino ang nagsisinungaling?

  12. Pinoys , they forget very easily .
    Look at the corrupt officials like Tito Sotto … they lost after the corruption scandal broke out .. but they won again a few yrs later
    So 2 yrs from now , she may join again and possibly win MUP or MIP. Saying naman , she is really pretty with good English skills

    • Tama! Hindi nya talaga dapat tanggapin. Kasi ang real essence naman ng winning a pageant is being able to represent the country in the international pageant. Ano pang sense? Pinatalo na ni imelda.

  14. Dapat pala aside from MEP Air, MEP Water and MEP Fire titles, meron pa din 1st runner up. Just in case may mangyaring katulad nito walang mababakanteng title.

  15. Finally, she is a full-fledged Beauty Queen after taking parts at Mutya ng Pilipinas 2015 (unplaced), Miss World Philippines 2015 (Top 13), Miss Philippines Earth 2015 (from Miss Philippines Air / 1st Runner-up to Miss Philippines Earth 2016). Congratulations Kiera Giel!!!!

  16. Mejo off lang ang timing na right after the competition saka sya assume ng MEP 2016 crown. Di sya nka compete and sya na gagawa ng responsibilities na naiwan ng dating winner. Oh well, ganun talaga, sya ang First Runner Up eh.

  18. Kerida, Kabit, Second wife, Second choice, Pinaglumaan. Wala akong pakialam basta sa akin ka lamang(Crown/Asawa/Gamit) 🙂
    Pls. join BbPilipinas 2018 Kiara at ibibigay ko sa yo ang isang korona hihihi

  19. Ahhhh…
    Thr CALM after the storm.
    All thr best Ms. Gregorio.
    A tiara for Kiara!
