The 16 Official Candidates of #BinibiningParanaque2020 along with the #GandangMamita2020 senior ladies were presented to the Officials and Employees of the City Government of Parañaque headed by Mayor Edwin Olivarez and First Lady Janet Olivarez.

There were a few familiar contenders among the young beauties including Sam Coloso (who represented us during Face of Beauty International 2019), Maricres Valdez Castro (who is Miss Scuba Philippines 2019 runner-up), former ICSM Infinity Pageants-Philippine Global Queens candidate Chelle R Toledo and Maria Ingrid Teresita Palanca Santamaria (photo with me below) who happens to be the daughter of former PBA player Joey Santamaria and granddaughter of concert pianist Ingrid Santamaria) – a tall (5’9”) 24 year-old discovery who should do national pageants this year or in 2021.

Finals will be on February 10 at the Ayala Malls Manila Bay for both competitions.

Good luck to everyone!
