The Beachwear Competition of Miss Eco Teen 2020 was held yesterday at the poolside of the Pick Albatros White Beach Resort in Hurghada, Egypt. All the young candidates paraded in their swimsuits with the South African representative placing on top of the scores. Miss Philippines Roberta Tamondong was named 1st Runner-Up, with the Kazakhstan bet getting 2nd Runner-Up.
Below is a quick video clip of Ro-An’s turn during the event.
Miss Universe Philippines 2020 Rabiya Mateo poses with “Abegail”, the name of the brand-new shiny red Morris Garages Philippines SUV she won in the competition.
Our Queen will start taking driving lessons soon. But first, she will apply for a driving permit and a license afterwards.

Behold your #Binibini20 Thea Cenarosa of Pototan, Iloilo in her Bb. Pilipinas National Costume by Jun-g Bayona Candelario (with backpiece by Brent Naranja):
Amakan
(Notes from the designers)
The gown is a culture-oriented inspired piece from a fused artistry of “amakan” – a Hiligaynon word which is used to dry rice in the rural area of Pototan at the same time, honoring the annual Festival of Lights or popularly known as Iwag Festival.
Pototan is considered as the rice granary of Panay. The rice cut precious stones symbolize the abundance of rice in the municipality. The fabric was cut into pieces and weaved, to create an “amakan.”
Apart from being the rice granary of the region, Iloilo is also known as the Christmas Capital of the Visayas, with its lovely Christmas lights that lit up the entire city court each December. The entire community gathers to experience and appreciate the celebration. Prosperity and festivity, Pototan, Iloilo.

Note: The Season 3 Premiere of Pageantry Norms – where the four winners of Miss Earth 2020 will have their first and exclusive online guesting – has been moved to Monday, November 30 at 8:30pm to give way to the Official Press Conference that will be hosted by the organizers on the evening of November 29.
Now onto the business at hand.
Truth be told, the virtual platform of Miss Earth 2020 has made it even harder to make a final forecast as to who among the 84 #EcoAngels will take the podium finishes during the November 29 Finals. In fact, the focus on their personality, intelligence and environmental awareness has never been this extensive – given the fact that their social media interviews/guestings and exposures have taken the driver’s seat more than individual parades in swimsuits, evening gowns, national costumes and sports wear.
In the throes of a long pandemic disquietude, these ladies became sources of intangible inspiration to emulate, if not the aesthetic fronts which pageant followers have long used as stronger references on who will prevail in the competition.
With just a wee bit trepidation, I am sharing with you now my Final Top 20 Selection for Miss Earth 2020 – arranged according to my personal judgment and/or preferences. The ultimate ranking in the final minutes of assessment will always be open to changes depending on how they will express and present their end game strategies. But if my current analysis stands, this is how they are likely to pan out in the hierarchical ladder of placements:
Netherlands 🇳🇱 Tessa Le Conge
Philippines 🇵🇭 Roxie Baeyens
Venezuela 🇻🇪 Stephany Zreik
USA 🇺🇸 Lindsey Coffey
Australia 🇦🇺 Brittany Dickson
Thailand 🇹🇭 Teeyapar Sretsirisuvarna
South Africa 🇿🇦 Lungo Katete
Myanmar 🇲🇲 Amara Shune Lei
Spain 🇪🇸 Marta Lorenzo
Costa Rica 🇨🇷 Kelly Avila
Belarus 🇧🇾 Mariia Reznyuk
Nigeria 🇳🇬 Gwenivere Chioma Ifeanyieze
Portugal 🇵🇹 Ivanna Rohashko
Panama 🇵🇦 Anayansi de Gracia
Poland 🇵🇱 Sabina Pøltawska
Germany 🇩🇪 Annabella Fleck
Belgium 🇧🇪 Kimbery Bosman
Vietnam 🇻🇳 Thai Thi Hoa
Canada 🇨🇦 Gloren Guelos
Singapore 🇸🇬 Christina Cai
Ideally so far, the candidates from the Netherlands, the Philippines, Venezuela and the USA will stamp their class all the way to the top with anyone among them winning the coveted crown and the three others scrambling to grab the more higher-placed elements. The four of them are strong all around. And if they continue doing so, the top tier is just waiting for their ascent.
Next to this four, I place my bets on the likely quintet to soar higher when it matters most. Australia, Thailand, South Africa, Myanmar and Spain are capable of doing so – with Costa Rica or Belarus squeaking in should the breaks go their direction.
Bottomline: Any one among Tessa Le Conge, Roxie Baeyens, Stephany Zreik and Lindsey Coffey would make a wonderful successor to Nellys Pimentel. I would be pleased to see them as the Final 4 placers. Otherwise, Brittany Dickson, Teeyapar Sretsirisuvarna, Lungo Katete and Marta Lorenzo get my thumbs up as potential spoilers.
Miss Globe Philippines 2020 and The Miss Globe 2020 4th Runner-Up Rowee Lucero is back after a whirlwind – albeit successful – representation of the country in Tirana, Albania. In a zoom meet-and-greet conference call with selected members of the pageant media, she shared her happiness in having made it to the Top 5 during the finals of the said pageant.
Rowee also intimated that she has no regrets in having taken the risk of accepting the challenge, knowing fully well that she could be removed from the roster of Bb. Pilipinas 2020 Official Candidates. And inspite of not receiving any official word from BPCI, she knows that her stint as Binibini 2 will remain just a wonderful memory of her eight (8) months along with the 39 other Binibinis who have already become her good friends. While she wanted to fulfill the dream of being on the Bb. Pilipinas stage for the finals next year, the stronger desire to represent the Philippines abroad is another pageant dream that she was able to realize inspite of the global pandemic.
Rowee is looking forward to fulfilling future public appearances for The Miss Globe in other countries. She has endeared herself to the organizers that her accompaniment is very much welcome. With both active Schengen and US multiple-entry visas on her passport, she won’t have a problem traveling even on short notice.
From all of us here at normannorman.com, welcome back and take the much-needed rest. This won’t be the last you will see of Rowee for sure!
Behold your #Binibini14 Hazel Ortiz of Pasig and her Bb. Pilipinas National Costume created by Edwin Uy.
Notes from the award winning national costume designer:
The costume of Bb. Candidate 14 Hazel Ortiz shows 2 looks, a Filipiniana gown which transforms into an ethnic tribal warrior.
Both looks depict our culture and History from 2 different times. It is also a symbolism of a modern Filipino woman who has 2 major characteristics, modest but at the same time, a fighter as Filipino women nowadays are more independent and can even match or outwit any men in terms of achievements yet their modesty has always been one of their major distict quality.
