You will remember her as the subject of my blog entry last January 27, 2022.

Presenting the next Aces & Queens bet for 2022: Vanessa Ann Caro from Iloilo Province

Vanessa is 24 years old and stands 5’9”. A Masters degree holder from New York and a professional Polynesian dance teacher, she does the latter to benefit some of her chosen charities.

Oh and by the way, she reigned as Miss Iloilo Dinagyang 2016.

Personality-wise, she is phenomenal. In terms of talent and purpose, though, she is a good fit for Miss World Philippines.

Watch out for her soon!

Vanessa Ann Caro: Can this Ilongga “ori-tahiti” her way to a crown?

I’ve had the pleasure of meeting this beautiful Ilongga last 2018 during an invite to judge Miss Iloilo Dinagyang 2018. She is tall, beautiful and very articulate. What’s more, she has this easy way of engaging with people – a reflection of her charming personality.

Back then, I have always encouraged Vanessa Ann Ka’ihilani Caro to do the nationals. After reigning as Miss Iloilo Dinagyang 2016, she focused on other priorities in life. She still maintained some visibility in the public eye, but not via pageantry. She can do corporate hosting and the like.

The video below is 3-years old. A Tahitian dancer, she has used this art to encourage fitness among young women.

Will Vanessa finally make a go for pageantry this 2022? I have a feeling she will.
