Mutya Ng Pilipinas recently appointed Ms. Cyrille Payumo to represent the Philippines in the forthcoming World Top Model Competition on December 2, 2022 at the Magyar Nemzeti Museum in Budapest, Hungary.
Payumo, after her strong win in Malaysia as Miss Tourism International 2019 is set on embarking her modeling career by joining this reputable event.
World Top Model is a prestigious competition organized by Mr. Fiore Tondi with Major Models one of the leading modelling agencies in Europe. It attracts close to 50 aspiring models worldwide. Top placers in this modelling competition are eventually recruited by some of the most prestigious establishments in the fashion industry.
Cory Quirino, President of Mutya ng Pilipinas stated “we are confident about sending ms. Payumo to this international event. In our organization we act as bridges for our queens in the pursuit and fulfillment of their personal career choices.”
My Top 12 Choices
In assembling a Top 12, your blogger reviewed everything several times before coming up with a ranked list. It wasn’t easy at all. Just when you thought a proper grid is in place, certain new elements (including the Primer) contribute to the constant shuffle. Care was given not to overthink the process because the danger of overlooking the big picture in favor of a small detail is always imminent.
Binibini 17 Chelsea Fernandez
Binibini 23 Nicole Borromeo
Binibini 40 Roberta Tamondong
Binibini 28 Gabrielle Basiano
Binibini 5 Karen Laurrie Mendoza
Binibini 31 Yllana Marie Aduana
Binibini 25 Annalena Valencia Lakrini
Binibini 1 Stacey Daniella Gabriel
Binibini 35 Diana Mackey
Binibini 8 Nicole Budol
Binibini 7 Graciella Lehmann
Binibini 34 Christine Opiaza
The five highest in this prediction constitute a major rumble. Any four (4) among them can easily make up a combo of titleholders. You can mix and match and still come up with a strong set of winners. But for the purpose of this forecast, let us stick to the four ladies who are likely to be the highest finishers, in my opinion:
Left to right: Nicole Borromeo, Chelsea Fernandez, Roberta Tamondong, Karen Laurrie Mendoza
Binibini 23 Nicole Borromeo
Binibini 17 Chelsea Fernandez
Binibini 40 Roberta Tamondong
Binibini 5 Karen Laurrie Mendoza
Their title assignments can be easily interchangeable. All four can do Miss International, Intercontinental and Globe. As for Miss Grand International, though, Fernandez and Tamondong can play toss-up. I wanted so much to put Gabrielle Basiano in the quartet, but I just feel like she will do a Hannah Ruth Sison.

Since the Philippines currently reigns supreme in both Intercontinental and Globe, the best approach in achieving a back-to-back win is by sending outstanding delegates. It is here where the Level 2 quartet can enter the picture. Gabrielle Basiano and Yllana Aduana can slip into victory if the higher-ranked Binibinis fail to measure up in the final tally. Even Graciella Lehmann and Stacey Gabriel can muddle things up, in my opinion.
Now who doesn’t love a spoiler? In this batch, I can feel that three (3) Binibinis can dampen an already ironed-out finish for the top favorites. And I sure would not mind seeing one of them making a spectacular finish.
Left to right: Nicole Budol, Christine Opiaza and Annalena Valencia Lakrini
Opiaza or Lakrini can nose out one or two of the predicted winners if the break favors them. The former is like a quintessential Filipino beauty – exotic and sexy, while the latter is a statuesque Fil-German stunner who can make heads turn instantly.
But more than the two, it is Nicole Budol who just might spring a big surprise on Sunday night. Pageant fans are divided on whether she is in it to win a crown or just a Top 12 spot. And if BPCI can face the music of a different normal, then this Angono representative could very well be the brave new benchmark of Binibining Pilipinas.
My Fearful Ranking:
I might be throwing caution to the wind with one or two assignments here, but that is the essence of what I do.
My Final Rankings
Binibining Pilipinas International
Chelsea Fernandez
Binibining Pilipinas Grand International
Roberta Tamondong
Binibining Pilipinas Intercontinental
Nicole Borromeo
Binibining Pilipinas Globe
Karen Laurrie Mendoza
1st RU Gabrielle Basiano
2nd RU Yllana Marie Aduana
Dear readers, this is how I see the final results happening Sunday night.
I wish all the forty (40) Binibinis the best. And may the destined winners bring us more pride and honor in the international stage of pageantry.
I started this snippets series in my social media accounts. I am sharing them now – four at a time. Hopefully, I can finish all forty (40) Binibinis.

Annalena Valencia Lakrini
I had difficulty remembering her full name the very first time I was personally introduced to her acquaintance. I got stuck with Anna as soon as I felt so awestruck with her imposing height. We talked about the silliest topics during that meeting, but it was more than enough to see through her pleasant character and gentle disposition.
Soon enough, #AnnalenaValenciaLakrini assumed the #Binibini25 hashtag. The Province of Bataan must be feeling proud of their representative. And whatever happens in Binibining Pilipinas 2022, I reckon that she will call my name out – Tito Norman! – everytime we see each other.
Nicole Borromeo
#Cebu has always been a treasure trove of winning beauties in the national level of pageantry. Some of its Queens have also figured out well internationally. And so it comes as no surprise that one of two Cebuana Binibinis in Binibining Pilipinas 2022 is being tagged as part of the favorites to win a crown.
#Binibini23 Nicole Borromeo can easily be in the running as one of the prime faces in this year’s batch. She won’t stop at that, however. Eyes on the prize!
Cyrille Payumo
When you’re someone like #Binibini26 Cyrille Payumo of Porac, Pampanga who is genetically gifted with legs that stretch for days, chances are that towering over others is an everyday advantage. Add to that her beautiful face and we have a Binibini who can stand head and shoulders above the competition.
Having already won a pandemic-affected international beauty title in the recent past, Cyrille can just sit back and not worry about reaching for another national victory. Not this Kapampangan, though. She wants to experience the whole nine yards of it all, fruitful physical reign included.
Nicole Budol
The biggest driving force in her bid for a Binibining Pilipinas 2022 crown is the huge social media presence that helps in creating impact to an established fanbase in different parts of the country.
#Binibini8 Herlene Nicole Budol of Angono, Rizal can pile up popularity points with just one TikTok post or YouTube vlog – not to mention the clips you can see of her on the Facebook newsfeed. For the uninitiated, this is uber demanding hard work on her part.
Stripped of the numbers, Herlene is void of pretensions. She is just as eager as the other Binibinis to prove her worthiness as a winner – and a deserving one at that.
In random order, here is the third group of eight photos for the National Costumes of Binibining Pilipinas 2022 shot at Las Casas Filipinas De Acuzar Quezon City by the duo of Raymond Saldaña and Owen Reyes.
