When was the last time you discovered a really cool free pageant-themed app on iTunes or Google Play store? In fact, have you found a good one, and created by a Filipino at that? Well, “Clash of Beauties Free App 1.0” is the answer.

My FB friend, Roman Corpuz, is the brains behind this app. And if you just give it one quick try, then I’m sure you’ll get hooked. With so many upcoming national and international pageants for the 2nd half of 2015, you’ll never run out of beauty competitions to play.

IT’S VERY EASY TO PLAY THIS APP:

Find out your favorite candidates in a beauty competition by playing the app.

The app will show you photos of candidates two at a time.

All you need to do is to pick the prettier candidate from the two photos all the time. Each candidate will be paired with everyone else, until the competition is complete. The app will then tally your top 15 based on the number of times you chose the client. That will be your top candidates.

At the moment, the trial runs have included the likes of Miss USA 2015, Miss World America 2015, Miss Manila 2015, Mutya ning Angeles and Bb. Pilipinas so you can give it a test drive (or test play if you will).

I can't stress enough the importance of this update from Megan.

I can’t stress enough the importance of this update from Megan.

Our Megan Young is definitely having the time of her life in Bali. She is making friends left and right and bubbling up in popularity. All of this while showing the true warmth of the Filipina.

Just the same, this is still a competition. And after reading the latest update of Megan in her Facebook page, you can’t help but be challenged even more to reach out and take part in insuring that she has a guaranteed Top 5 spot in the finals. I know that some of you will question the need to go all-out in voting when Miss Philippines is already getting strong by the day.

But you can never tell the way Miss World weaves its magic. There will always be a soft spot for those who give tremendous support to its charities. This time, it’s by way of votes casted through the pageant’s application in either iTunes or Google Playstore.

So if you’re behind Megan every step of the way, let’s do this! 🙂

Proceeds of the online voting will go to the charities of Miss World Organization.

If you’re ready to give your all-out support for Megan, then head over to iTunes on your iPhone or iPad or iPod touch, download the Miss World 2013 app, then start voting! 🙂

Our girl is running strong at the moment! 😉

Luo Zilin (MU2011 4th Runner-Up) on Oxygen’s “The Face”

Miss Universe China 2011 Luo Zilin can now be seen on Oxygen's The Face.

Don’t look now, but Miss Universe China 2011 and Miss Universe 2011 4th Runner-Up Luo Zilin has grabbed the opportunity to extend her international modeling career to yet another avenue, however riskier the move could be. She is all set to appear as one of the twelve finalists who will fight to win an exclusive global modeling contract with Ulta Beauty plus the title of “The Face” on US cable’s Oxygen Channel.

I actually heard about the show when Nigel Barker served as one of the judges in Miss Universe 2012. And the other day, the first episode – titled ‘The Fight to Make Top 12’ – was made available for free on iTunes. I downloaded right away and watched the same with much gusto. Imagine my pleasant surprise to see Luo Zilin as one of the 24 short-listed ladies judged by Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha. And imagine my even more pleasant surprise when I saw all three supermodel-coaches wanting (so bad) to get the Chinese stunner on their respective teams. In the end, she opted to join Team Naomi as expected.

Watch the Official Trailer of “The Face” (courtesy of ultabeauty) below:

Let's see how far Zilin will go on 'The Face'

This early, Zilin is already being pegged as a top favorite to make it all the way to Top 3 in the show. And her coach Naomi is very confident that she will be a real force to reckon with. Let’s see in the succeeding episodes so she can make up for her disappointing fifth-place Miss Universe finish (behind our own Shamcey Supsup).

I’m not sure yet which channel will carry ‘The Face‘ in the Philippines, but my best bets would be TLC, Star World or 2nd Avenue. It will premiere in the U.S. on February 12, but if you’re an eager beaver and want to watch the first episode right away, then head over to iTunes and click the link under the TV Shows section. 😉

Charice’s “Pyramid” music video

Posted by Norman on April 22, 2010
Posted in: 2 Shout-out-Looks, 8 CD Watch. Tagged: , , , , , , , , .

Our very own Charice will have her debut self-titled US cd released on May 11, 2010 (a day after the national elections in the country) and this early, the carrier single “Pyramid” – which she sings together with Iyaz – is solidly climbing the Billboard dance charts. In fact, this is the reason why she was invited to perform the song’s remixed version at Club 57 – an uppity gay bar in California. And this is also where she invited her friend, American Idol runner-up David Archuleta, to watch and extend support. Of course, you all know what happened next. But it’s all good between the two. The latter claimed that he should have double checked the venue first before lettiing Twitters have a field day questioning his sexuality.

Anyways, here is the music video of “Pyramid”:

By the way, you can start pre-ordering Charice’s album via iTunes or you can click this link. 😉

Must-listen-to Single: “Pyramid” by Charice (feat. Iyaz)

Charice (Pempengco) has just released her second US single (after “Note to God”) and this one should make her star shine even brighter. “Pyramid” is an upbeat track with catchy hooks which will surely add more to the diminutive Pinay singer’s growing fanbase in the US and around the world. She sings here featuring Iyaz.

Pyramid is available for download via iTunes or Amazon.

Here is the audio clip of the song:

Can’t wait for the release of Charice’s much-anticipated CD in the US!

Thank God it’s Friday! 😉
