In this entry are photos from tonight’s Mutya ng Pilipinas 2022 Victory Party held at CWC Interiors in BGC.
Members of the pageant press enjoyed talking to and taking pictures of the ladies which included #MutyaNgPilipinas2022 Iona Gibbs, #MutyaNgPilipinas World Top Model Arianna Padrid, #Mutya Miss Tourism International Jeanette Reyes, #MutyaOverseasCommunities Jesi Mae Cruz, #MutyaLuzon Shannon Robinson and #MutyaMindanao Celyn Bautista. We missed you, #MutyaVisayas Megan Deen Campbell.
Mutya Chairman Fred Yuson and Mutya President Cory Quirino were around to welcome the guests and made sure that it was a happy occasion for everyone.

Mutya ng Pilipinas 2022 Iona Gibbs
Iona Gibbs has the making of an international beauty queen
… She already goes down in pageant history as the inaugural host delegate of MPI!
This is exciting, as :
1. Here’s an opportunity to see a new brand take its maiden voyage! More importantly, it will be, as though, a proverbial ‘Phoenix-from-the-ashes’ as we anticipate a revitalized national organization reconfigure its global contest.
2. We, finally, have a beauty contest SPECIFICALLY with the Philippines as the advocacy. Needless to say, local fashion designers will have a field day… Recall that fashion design student from Isabela who did NatCos for some African delegates at MU recently? Has he finished his studies? I, for myself, would appreciate an exploration of CULINARY TRADITIONS. Will they have a ‘sinigang’ challenge? If so, who among us here will serve on the Board of Judges? 🙂
3. Since Ms. Gibbs won, hopefully her province can host at least some pre-pageant activities. No, I don’t think it’s necessary to turn it into yet another tourism blitz, pero sana well thought out ang mga engagements so that everything will look seamless~harmonious. Huwag, po, ‘yun’g laktaw-laktaw…
4. One of us (I think it was @ Ana-WL) said the stage looked ‘nice” (my apologies, Ms. Ana, if I misquoted) & I agree. Kahit ganu’n lang – classy. In that regard, they’re on track!
5. Obviously, MPIO (Mdme. Cory & Mr. Yuson) are offering franchise. Imagine if on their first year they can (already) match, if not exceed, another home-grown international pageant attendance-wise, that will speak highly of the duo. But that’s ‘putting the horse before the cart’ (tama, ba, @ Scorg?); tumulong tayo para maging matagumpay ‘to.
PS. Mentioned by Mr. Blogger that the MAPI is now owned by someone else… Abangan!
I was expecting Japor to make the semifinals , but instead Okoi made it … not knowing anything about their speaking skills, I say Japor is ahead in regards to physical beauty
Both are MUP alumnae. 🙂
One made it as far as the poll-driven Top 50, I think. It was at that juncture when the Org sat down & made the Final 30~…
(Thus, was she booted out, & we never heard her in the preliminary Question Round.)
Speaking of speaking skills, last year (Bea Luigi Gomez’s batch) was a MUP candidate who works at a wind farm & went to her college graduation by motorcycle (pressed for time). I wonder if Mdme. Cory & Mr. Fred Yuson like backstories like that.
Also, JEDIDAH! ❤
buhok ng poon
magaganda sila lahat
Robinson should have won after the Q&A.
Siya, po, ba ‘yun’g naka-beige gown sa Finale?
Rightmost in that Coronation line-up shot (earlier post on Mutya ng Pilipinas 2022 winners)? 🙂
(Mutya Mindanao is a Leren Mae lookalike! At least here.)
Second from the left
Yes and she is second from the left!
I agree with this … about Robinson
