There is always something good to be said about beauty queens who use their titles to create a platform where their voices can be heard on a national level. Done with the job of representing the Philippines in Miss Grand International 2016 and bringing home the 1st Runner-Up trophy as proof of achievement, Bb. Pilipinas Grand International 2016 Nicole Cordoves is currently setting her sights on more important advocacies that affect the youth. And boy, is she really in her best elements doing these activities.

For the National Children’s Congress of the DSWD, she spoke to the young ones and shared the importance of being aware about the social issues affecting them and life in general. This is what she posted on social media about it.

“Hindi tayo ginawa ng Diyos para maging ordinaryo lamang, may ekstraordinaryong tadhana siya na isinulat para sa atin. | You weren’t created by God to become ordinary, you are all given an extraordinary purpose.

It was a priceless opportunity to be able to speak to these kids about life. When the floor was opened for questions, they asked a lot of social issues about our country today. They are aware, they are worried, and they need us to make sure that it really is going to be okay.

And Nicole doesn’t stop there. She also shared her time for the reading advocacy of Manila Bulletin called “Read for 20” (or simply put, make a habit of reading at least 20 minutes a day). Here is her take on this.

Nicole for Manila Bulletin’s Read For 20

“Every time you finish reading a book, you see the world a little more differently. This is why I am sharing Manila Bulletin’s advocacy, READ FOR 20! I am encouraging everyone to keep a book in your bag, get off social media and read for AT LEAST 20 minutes a day. So drop your phones and grab a book!”

There is something really important about being Nicole Cordoves. She puts into good use the power and responsibility given to her as a national beauty titleholder. And knowing this lady, she won’t stop doing what she loves best. In fact, she’s just getting started!

I love you, Nicole! 😉

    • The inportant of being Nicole Cordoves? Please lang wag masydo bias sa Campo Carne Inagas na Queens! Paimportante kamo! Anuba! Yung ate nyong runner-up speechwriter keme pa rin ang hanash at kuda? Tigil-tigilan nga at humihiritnpa mg sentimyebto sa administrasyon at sumasawsaw sa Marcos burial keme – di na nga kagandahan, dilawan pa! Anuba! At kailangan talaga laht ng puntahan dala yung trophy? Ipagawan kaya nya ng kwintas at isabit sa leeg nya?

  2. Nag predict pala si robato about kay nichole hours b4 the pageant. He said she will be 3rd runner up. And ayun. Tama prediction nya.
    Kay joanna naman medyo tama ang sinabi nya. Medyo timid talaga sya that time. Kulang sa confindence. But still hoping na makapasok sya sa semis. At dun na nya ipakita ang pasabog 4 days to go Supranational na.

  3. haaay naku!
    Nicole , Nicole!
    Ang beauty queen na masyadong attached sa trophy nya!
    Na kahit san magpunta ay karag karag ang trophy nya.
    Feeling sanggre na laging may dalang briliante.
    Sya ang beauty queen na hindi mkakaligtaang ipangalandakan na SPEECH WRITER sya.
    Nichole, MGI lang ang pageant mo!
    Isang walang kwentang pageant, kaya wag kang eksenadora!
    Kaloka ka!
    Daldal ko sa part na to!

    • Excuse me Basil. May karapatan si Nicole umeksena dahil maganda intension nya. Ikaw, maganda ba intension mo?

      • E ano ba ang intensyon nya?
        Naibsan ba nya ang sikmura ng mga gutom?
        Yang pagkuda nya e may naidulot ba sa ekonomiya?
        Sagot!!!!!
        Tapang mo ah!

      • Bago ka pa nag statement, madami na syang napakain na gutom… Aside from that ilang beses na nya nasagot ang tanong mo kung ano ang intension nya sa madaming nag interview sa kanya from ABS-CBN News to CNN Philippines. Wag umeksena kung walang alam.

    • Wala naman syang dalang trophy sa mga photos nya dito. Anong ikinakaheart attack mong mareng Basilia? Mapait ka pa sa ampalayang hindi naibabad sa tubig na may asin.

    • Basil, talagang negatibo pa rin ang iyong nakita sa magagandang bagay na ginawa ni Nicole. Alam mo, hindi lang siya well-accomplished, she’ s even a great intrument to inspire you na maging tao. You know what i mean, maging tao ka nga, huwag aso na tahol ng tahol wala namang saysay ang sinasabi. Pak na Pak You Hija.hihi

  4. What a woman of substance!
    Makes her even more strikingly beautiful than she already is.

    Go on Nicole..

  6. This. Ito yong totoong ‘I will use my voice to influence the youth and I will raise awareness blah blah’. You’re a genuine beauty queen with substance, Queen Nicole C. Ipagpatuloy mo lang yan at lalo ka naming mamahalin at susuportahan.

  7. OOT : Anong klasing rules ito 🙂
    Puede pahiwa ng katawan pero bawal make-up by professional make-up artist… kaloka.

      • I remember tuloy si Charlene nireveal niya sa isang talk show, the night before MU1994, kinuha siya from her room and FS did her makeup, so natulog siya na may makeup na for the next day’s pageant.

  10. Wala akong masabi sa bag mo my dear Queen Nicole hihihi
    Bagay sa suot mo yung bag.
    Book month din yata now ng DepEd.
    Magandang advocacy yan kc puro internet na ngayon.
    Ang hirap bumenta ng Encyclopedia now at meron din encarta hihihi
    So, bili na sa Wala akong Paki by Senyora (Toinks) bwahahahaha.

      • At ang singlupalpal at pinahiya ni Nichole Manalo
        eh may tapang pang mag comment…ano tuloy pa
        rin ba ang celebration nyo nila J, Dyosa ng Kapangitan
        at ni Padede Boy hahahahaha ambilis nyo napahiya no

  12. Gorgeous. She’s using her crown to push a platform. That’s beauty with substance. I know she gave a great fight at MGI. Am just a little wistful, wishing she still had a chance to compete for Universe.

  13. She’s such a breathe of fresh air in the pageant world. Good for you and I hope is blessed even more especially with a new correspondent gig that she really wants to do in the future.
