For the past two weeks and a half now, the organizers of Miss Philippines Earth have been live-streaming the initial interviews of their short-listed applicants to become Official Candidates this year. Your blogger was even part of the panel during the first batch. By next week, they will most likely announce the official lineup that will become this year’s Earth Warriors.
Among them is a quartet of ladies who are crossovers from other national pageants.
Last year’s phenomenal woman of Oriental Mindoro in Miss Universe Philippines will now be the Earth Warrior of San Pablo, Laguna for MPE2021. Dr. Adee Hitomi Akiyama is more confident that she can do this competition given the combination of medical and environmental advocacies she is pushing for.
Louise Theunis was initially an Official Candidate of Miss World Philippines last 2018 before she joined Miss Bikini Philippines 2019 – a title she won just before the global pandemic took its toll on everyone. She is now ready to represent Carrascal, Surigao del Sur in MPE2021 and is certain that taking the risk of vying for another crown is worth it. Keep in mind that she was also National Director of Miss FIT Philippines.
Angelie Aubrey Asuncion was Binibini 40 during the Bb. Pilipinas 2018 batch. She is also a very good acoustic singer who did well during the Talent Competition that time. After keeping it low-key for the past two years, she is back with a more refreshing look and styling – something that will make her stand out in MPE2021.
On the other hand, Gail Ventic was Binibini 1 during Bb. Pilipinas 2016. Like Angelie above, she was fielded in the competition by Kagandahang Flores. Right after her first national pageant experience, she returned to her job as Flight Attendant of Air Asia. She is bringing back maturity this year. And MPE2021 is the right pageant to be part of her return.
How successful will the four ladies above do in Miss Philippines Earth 2021? I am positive they will do well. I know that there are also a lot of promising ladies from the rest of the aspirants who are still relative unknowns. But I trust that the best will shine in due time to become the successor of Roxie Baeyens.
Dok has a Kevin Liliana ~ Franceska Taruc thing going.
For me, her best photo to date was her Swim Glam at MUP. Stretched out poolside, Kurleto vibe!

(May Regionals veterana na mukha’ng tagapagmana ng korona ni Shane Tormes. She got BOTH Swim and Evening Dress ‘Best’ citations! She might be half-Indian, reading her surname. PRETTY.)

Also hoping for a slot tomorrow is Chella Falconer of MisOr, another Nationals veteran.
Last year’s Elemental Court had only one noob, right? The Aussie-Pinay? Kumusta na siya, Tito?
(Cont.1)
Mi gran apologies to Chella Falconer. Wrong pageant. My mistake. 😦
Otits, GANDA ni Baeyens sa Announcement of the ‘Colorful’ 2021 Roster! She will succeed Maynigo for the ‘Baguio’ sash/AP, po? 🙂
WIFI couldn’t cope. Hanggang “E” lang naabutan ko… Hayst lang… Please make a post na lang.
Two “D” cities – Digos & Dumaguete – sounded promising. I’m very happy my “C” city got in. G!
Life has a way of moving forward. The show must go on. I am excited about MEP. In this group, Hitomi Akiyama is my favorite
