mwsmalllogo It is most interesting that Miss World 2013 Megan Young will be one of the hosts for Miss World 2014, alongside Welsh actor/TV Presenter Tim Vincent and Frankie Cena.

I think the best thing about our Queen doing the job is that she will be getting the good global spotlight while doing one of the skills she is excellent at, and also showcasing at least three (3) Filipino designers all throughout the telecast in the expected change of attire – one for the opening and 1st half of the show, another one for the middle and the final grand entrance for her farewell walk and coronation of the new Miss World.

Ooh, I’m so excited about the finals. I’m sure it’s going to be one spectacular show at ExCeL London. 😀

P.S. By the way, the event will be broadcasted in the Philippines by GMA-7 on Monday, December 15 at 9:30AM. If you can’t wait for it, then Miss World’s YouTube Channel will also provide Live Streaming. 😉

Frankie Cena for Miss World 2014

image Someone is all set to do a Gwendoline Ruais and Jennifer Reoch. But this time, the one doing a job is a he. You will remember him from Mr. World 2012 where he made the Top 10, and from Mr. World 2014 alongside Miss World 2013 Megan Young as finals host.

Frankie Cena will be the Miss World 2014 Web Presenter in London. And he will have the enviable job of following all the ladies in their activities and conducting interviews along the way. What’s more, he might also get the chance to facilitate some of the pre-pageant events.

That’s the kind of work I like. Sign me up if there’s a need for an understudy, Frankie!

There is only a 7-hour time difference between Manila and Torquay. And since the finals of Mr. World 2014 inside the Riviera International Conference Center will start at around 1:00PM (8:00PM Manila), chances are high that we shall know the winner a good hour before midnight tonight.

And if we are to follow the presence of both Miss World 2012 Wenxia Yu and Miss World Oceania 2013 Erin Holland in the English Riviera, there is also an excellent chance that they will be guest-performing one of their operatic pieces.

Who will Mr. World 2012/13 Francisco Escobar Parra turn over the responsibilities to? We shall definitely find out tonight! 😀

My Dozen Desirables of Mr. World 2014

My Dozen Desirables of Mr. World 2014

mrworldlogo1 Coming up with a Top 12 – let alone a Top 10 – can be quite a tricky arrangement to make with the candidates of Mr. World 2014.

For one, there will definitely be just a Top 10 based on past competitions. And in that eventual group, half of the number will be the Special Award winners in fast-track segments- Extreme Challenge, Sports, Talent, Fashion & Style and Multimedia. So for now, Mr. Moldova Valeriu Gutu is already a lock for one of the spots after topping the first-concluded event.

As for Sports, my hunch is that Mr. Bahamas DeVaughn Gow might end up scoring more points than the rest. In Talent, it could be a battle between Mr. Netherlands Demian Overduijn and Mr. England Jordan Williams. Fashion & Style-wise, Mr. Mexico Jose Pablo Minor and Mr. Philippines John Spainhour could be in the final mix, just as they are also vying to nail the Multimedia pennant along with Mr. India Prateek Jain. Hence, the inclusions of the aforementioned names are relatively justified from where I stand.

The remaining slots are almost fair game for everyone else. I would give extra consideration, though, to Mr. Peru Diego Conroy as he has shown more grit and fighting spirit, not to mention killer looks that will never go unnoticed.

And so, who are we left with to add as possible major contenders? I would place my bets on the refreshing Mr. Denmark Nicklas Pedersen, the magnetic Mr. Argentina Jose Ferrer Santillan and the traditionally handsome Mr. Spain Jose Ignacio ‘Nacho’ Ros. And why not throw in Thibault Marchand of France for good measure?

That’s already a dozen. I gave myself two extra spaces because the line-up is giving me a mild headache on who to and not to include in my predictions. But if you ask me for a more definitive Top 3 forecast, my guess is that three continents will be represented.

I'm going out on a limb for Demian, John and Diego.

Could Mr. World 2014 be the Dancing Biologist from the Netherlands, the Sweet-faced Sniper from the Philippines or the Kickass Football Hottie from Peru?
