Jonas Gaffud (back to the camera) watches each of the 50 aspirants for the Aces & Queens Class of 2018
Over the weekend at the Theatre at Solaire, the fifty (50) short-listed members of the Aces & Queens Class of 2018 were given their formal orientation where the journey towards Bb. Pilipinas 2018 continues. Camp pillars Jonas Gaffud, Arnold Mercado and Atty. Nad Bronce presided over the briefing while doing their running assessment of each of the ladies who will be trained and polishes for the nationals. Senior Adviser (Direk) Jeffrey Jeturian, along with the members of the beauty camp, were also in attendance.
The important question now is how many of the fifty (50) will survive the training. Truth be told, this is also like a mini-version of Bb. Pilipinas as aspirants will be eliminated one by one en route to building the core line-up of around 15 ladies who will be officially fielded for the country’s biggest beauty search.
I will update you with developments from time to time. In the meantime, here are more photos from the said orientation.

Kailangan ng Pilipinas ng isa pang Earth warrior kasi sobrang napakarumi, napaka-polluted na ng Pilipinas.. hahaha! A future Miss Earth should come from a country which does not contribute so much pollution to our Mother Earth. That alone would be enough to set a very good example to the rest of the population in the entire world, not from a country which does not even exemplify such value in protecting the world we live in.
Sad ako sa Fearless prediction kay Mariel. Ligwak yata. Im hoping na her beauty albe can break the curse. Maski man lang semifinalist ok na. Sana mas mataas kesa sa shupit. On a much related topic, tama yung isang nagcomment na ang Misso , Global beauties , and Sashfactor ay mga fans lang din gaya natin. Although theyre batikang beauty critics, wala rin silang say officially sa ranking. Madalas ga sablay sila. Just like us! Fun to read lang and shouldnt be taken too seriously.
Hindi naman inalis ng Missosology ang Miss Earth sa major pageant ah parang nadisappoint lang sila ng kunti dahil nga sa mga pangyayari na wala sa mga hotpicks nila ang tumama at kahit wala na yang mga ranking ranking na yan, makikita mo naman kung ano ang major sa minor, ang basehan ko kung major pageant na ang isang beauty contest una, ay yung maraming delegates from around the world at parehas lang ang MU at ME sa dami ng delegates nag ta tie sila as no.2 at no.1 naman ang MW sa dami.Pangalawa ay yung merong sariling national pageants sa Kani kanilang bansa at pasok ang ME dun dahil hindi halos handpicks or appointed ang ipinapadala nila.pangatlo, the relevant of the advocacy which is unique talaga ang ME dahil nga sa Kalikasan ang focus nila at pang apat ay ang pinapanood sa telibisyon saan man sa mundo through different channels at pasok sa bamga ang ME dahil hindi lang FB live ito pinapalabas kundi sa ibat ibang sikat na network like foxlife,Globovision,TFC etc. so kahit ano pang sabihin ng iba dyan lalo na yung fan ng trying hard na self proclaimed MGI na third biggest pageant daw , ni walang sariling identity at puro copycat ang ginagawa ay mananatiling minor pageant ito dahil nga walang klarong advocacy at walang budget magpalabas sa television around the world.
Stop using “war”. The fans are the ones that are pitting these two as if it’s gladiator. hihihi. Competition is natural and what’s good about KF and A&Q is that they are actually currently neck in neck this year in terms of achievements. I am sure Jonas is diligently doing his homework to bring back Miss U in his turf. Go lang ng go mga veks and please stop this “war” thing. Let’s all appreciate what they both do and keep it clean. hihihi
Missosology wagas ang pagkaingit Ng mga bakla. If I’m not mistaken ang merong hawks nito ay ang baklang wagas ang corruption sa camp nya. Aminin eto ang time na magsilabasan yung mga lalaking hinada nya at nanalo. Sino kaya ang matapang na mag reveal nang baho Ng baklang ito. it’s time Karma is here.lakas Ng loob na alisin yung ME! Go a baklush.
Gusto ko yung list na hinada nya… hihihi… Does his name sound like Pawikan? hihihi
The number one culprit of the environment is ANIMAL AGRICULTURE. No one speaks about it because we are meat eaters. We exploit the animals. We ruin our health. We destroy the environment. When has Miss Earth Organization included this on their advocacy? Never! Technically, no one answered the final question correctly.
To piggyback on your post Gemma, Karen is really good in interviews. Very articulate and she knows what she’s talking about.
Nakow, balik 11 crowns na lang tayo.. dahil waley na sa major ang ME sa Misso.
at baka matuwa taga Aces nito dahil demoted na mga queens ng KF kaya Rachel ipaghigante mo si Karen. lol
There is no governing body that ranks a pageant legitimately. Not missosology, not globalbeauties, not sashfactor.
I agree. Like us, they are also just fans. To me though, there are only Big 3 alpha pageants. Miss Earth, Miss Grand and Miss Supranational are still in the B league.
Miss Earth though is spiralling down to last place of the B League pageants.
Trulala. Pautot lang yan ng Misso at GB as marketing ploys.. hihihi…
Sino ba ang misso in the first place? If i know, naglalaway ang mga tao sa lilkod nyan tuwing merong ipamumudmod na free air ticket at free travel expenses ang MEO para mag-cover ng pageant pag sa labas ng pilipinas event. Isa pang mga ipokrito. Magtigil.
galingan ng A&Q ang pagscout at pagtrain…last BBP KF ang malalakas na candidates…G0od luck beauty camps !!!
Omg!! The origin woman, by sven chua, switched camps na pala. It does not matter naman cguro kung saang camp sila affiliated, as long as the burning passion to win an international crown is still at flame. Good luck ladies

They have big shoes to fill. Train hard and conquer harder.
Beauty camp war , its normal basta pag nakasabak na ang mga kandidata sa international stage, Aces and KF camp should unite.
Star,
There is ctually an alliance party among KF and A&Q and i’m one of the guest of honor to talk about Leadership and Unity 🙂
Everybody is invited 🙂
It’s a friendly competition, not war? And competition brings out the best in people. Basta at the end of the day, Pilipinas Ang panalo! Yun ang importante. Alam mo naman Ang lahi natin, Isinumpang magaganda!
And tayo na Ang template ngayon,
Sa Venezuela, may Osmel at Esteban na training camp and sa Colombia, may Fabian at Franklin naman.
Yung mga bakla lang ng KF ang pala away!
Couldn’t agree more! John “elepante” cliff” at Richmond “unggoy” Rondolo ang mga bashers ng Aces and Queens. Mga squatter!
