The 69th Miss Universe Competition

Posted by Norman on April 9, 2021
Posted in: 1 Pageant Pages, 2 Shout-out-Looks. Tagged: Binibining Pilipinas Universe 1969, National Costume Show, Zozibini Tunzi. 24 Comments


The National Directors have already been informed about a few important details that will be observed during the 69th Miss Universe Pageant in Hollywood, Florida:

1) The National Costume Show will be produced LIVE on location. While it is categorized as optional, everyone is encouraged to participate. It will be held 5-6 days before the Finals on May 16. Conditions are that the candidates themselves are responsible for unpacking, packing and removing* the costume from the venue after the show is finished.

2) There will be NO national gift auction for this edition. Delegates should no longer bring a national gift.

3) Due to COVID, the delegates should NOT bring gifts for the other contestants.

The Miss Universe Organization will be following all COVID guidelines to ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone.

* – the heavier the ensemble, the harder it is to individually carry/pull/drag everything, I reckon. So will we see “lighter” costumes this year?

The Miss Grand International 2020 winners in Phuket’s Banana Beach

Posted by Norman on April 7, 2021
Posted in: 1 Pageant Pages, 2 Shout-out-Looks. Tagged: 69th Miss Universe, Abena Appiah, Aurra Kharishma, Banana Beach, Hollywood Florida, Ivana Batchelor, Lala Guedes, Miss Grand International 2020, Miss Universe Organization, Nawatt Itsaragrisil, Samantha Bernardo. 15 Comments


The winners of Miss Grand International 2020 led by Abena Appiah have been thoroughly enjoying #AmazingThailand at a most leisurely pace. But soon, they will each move on with their lives and look back at the wonderful memories of the time spent together.

Here are photos taken at Banana Beach, Coral Island, Koh Hey, Phuket.

I never imagined I would be blogging this, but Nawatt Itsaragrisil and his pageant has now set a benchmark on how to properly host an international competition amidst the global pandemic. And to actually have all five winners touring Thailand for almost two weeks after the finals is just icing on the cake.

The 14-day quarantine upon arrival should be mandatory. But the most important detail is that the host country and its government is also effective in keeping the COVID virus from spreading.

MUO should be observing their movements more closely before the 69th Miss Universe delegates start arriving in Hollywood, Florida next month.

Official Statement from MWPO

Posted by Norman on April 6, 2021
Posted in: 1 Pageant Pages, 2 Shout-out-Looks. Tagged: Dr. Amaal Rezk, Kelley Day, Miss Eco International 2020. 23 Comments


The stories surrounding the COVID-related happenings during the last few days of the recently-concluded Miss Eco International 2020 in Egypt has taken different shapes and sizes. From this blog, I am just praying for the health and safety of our Miss Eco Philippines Kelley Day.

Based from the posts of Dr Amaal Rezk in her FB account, it does appear that she is infected with a disease. So I do not want to make any further speculations than that.

Below is the Official Statement of Arnold Vegafria:

“The ALV Group of Companies is coordinating closely with the Miss Eco International organization in ensuring the health and safety of all the candidates in its recently concluded pageant.

Our official candidate, Ms. Kelley Day, remains our topmost priority, and we remain optimistic as we await the results of the organizers’ routinary medical testing procedures.”

Hollywood, Florida in Rabiya’s mind

Posted by Norman on April 6, 2021
Posted in: 1 Pageant Pages, 2 Shout-out-Looks. Tagged: 69th Miss Universe, Hollywood Florida, Rabiya Mateo. 91 Comments


“Hollywood is a city in southern Broward County, Florida, United States, located between Fort Lauderdale and Miami. The average temperature is between 68 and 83 °F (20 and 28 °C). As of July 1, 2019, Hollywood had a population of 154,817. Founded in 1925, the city grew rapidly in the 1950s and 1960s, and is now the 12th-largest city in Florida…”

Soon, Miss Universe Philippines 2020 Rabiya Mateo will go to the place nicknamed “the diamond of the gold coast” for the 69th Miss Universe.

The Last Two Women Standing

Posted by Norman on April 5, 2021
Posted in: 1 Pageant Pages, 2 Shout-out-Looks. Tagged: 69th Miss Universe, Gizzelle Uys, Kelley Day, Miss Eco International 2020, Miss Grand International 2020, Rabiya Mateo, Samantha Bernardo. 31 Comments

The Last Two Women Standing

Two (2) very promising starts for the Philippines in international pageantry this 2021.

March

First it was Samantha Bernardo who got First Runner-Up honors last March 27 during the Finals of Miss Grand International 2020 in Bangkok, Thailand.

April

And just last night in Sharm El Shiekh, Egypt, Kelley Day was so close to winning the country’s 2nd Miss Eco International title when she was named First Runner-Up to Gizzelle Mandy Uys of South Africa.

May

Next month in Hollywood, Florida, the 69th Miss Universe will have a new Queen. Will the ascent continue one notch higher to the top for Miss Universe Philippines 2020 Rabiya Mateo? Will it stay the same as the above? Or will the Philippines finally get that elusive 2nd Runner-Up placement?
