Based from the Press Presentation of Miss Philippines-Earth 2010 candidates earlier this week, I am posting my early favorites for the crown. There are actually quite a lot of ladies to choose from but I have whittled them down to ten ladies who have the strongest chances to win this year.

In no particular order:

Angela Fernando, Miss Municipality of Lubao

Rosemary Joan Turner, Miss Olongapo City

Rene McHugh, Miss Filipino Community of US East Coast

Marie Lorraine de Guzman, Miss Vigan City

Nicole Kaufmann Ortega, Miss Taguig City

Gwenaelle Ruais, Miss Filipino Community of France

Melissa Ann Sokukawa, Miss Filipino Community of US West Coast

Angelica Pasumbal, Miss Makati City

Emerie Dale Cunanan, Miss Municipality of Pandan

Ferina Juny-Ann de Paz, Miss Muntinlupa City

Still more than two weeks to go before the finals on April 24 so some changes will likely take effect in my list of favorites. Let’s see who will zoom in and zoom out during pre-pageant activities and screenings.

Thank God it’s Friday! Enjoy the long weekend! 😉
