Jamie Herrell of the Philippines is Miss Earth 2014

missearth14 missearth In what could be termed a most polished production and one that has definitely leveled up this year, here is the 14th winner of the unique beauty pageant with an environmental theme. And she will now be, henceforth, called Miss Earth 2014.

Defeating 83 (Eighty-three) other contestants (with the withdrawal of Miss France) for the crown, Jamie Herrell of the Philippines captured the country’s 2nd Miss Earth crown from last year’s Alyz Henrich.

Making it as Miss Air is Andrea Neu of the USA, with Maira Alexandra Rodriguez of Venezuela getting Miss Water and Miss Russia Anastasia Trysova being named Miss Fire.

The four other candidates who made the Final 8 are Spain, Slovak Republic, Mongolia and Brazil.

I personally feel that Jamie is a most deserving winner, host delegate or not. I’m pretty sure she will up her hardworking qualities and be a more inspired and inspiring Earth Warrior.

Biggest congratulations go to Jamie Herrell for winning the country's 2nd Miss Earth crown

Congratulations, ladies! 😀

P.S. Notwithstanding the good production this year, the sore lack of reliable interpreters continues to bog down the organizers. They could have addressed this issue alongside the upgrade of technical merits.

Who will Alyz give up her crown to?

Tonight, Miss Earth 2014 will be crowned.

Will reigning winner Alyz Henrich be transferring her title to fellow Venezuelan Maira Alexandra Rodriguez and complete the pageant’s first back-to-back win? Or will the new Earth Ambassador be one of the other more popular candidates being pointed to as her possible successor? Or could she be a surprise performer who will take the spotlight and edge out the favorites?

You need to watch the finals at UP Theatre to find out.

As for the TV telecast, ABS-CBN will air the finals on a delayed schedule, i.e., November 30 (Sunday) at 10am. And contrary to previous announcements for cable subscribers that Star World will show the finals live, it has already specified that their airing will also be delayed, i.e., November 30 (Sunday) at 8:55am.

But if you want to get reliable real-time web updates, go to Rappler.com where the coronation night will be covered.

P.S. If you still want to take a chance in getting tickets for the finals later, call 724-1810/724-1820/ 724-1830 😉

Please refer to the day-to-day schedule below (subject to changes):

P.S. Versailles Palace is still there. Good thing it will be used for the swimsuit competition of one group and not the finals.

In just a matter of weeks, the Philippines will start welcoming the confirmed delegates of Miss Earth 2014. And the local and international pageant world will be abuzz with all the environmental and medal-winning activities that the organizers have lined up for this year’s batch of earth warriors.

Green Sun Hotel: Official Residence of Miss Earth 2014 delegates

Reigning Miss Earth Alyz Henrich is already in the country to help promote the pageant, as well as to film new videos that will serve as backdrops to the November 29 finals to be held at the UP Theater in Diliman, QC. While the venue will certainly not excite fans and followers anymore, it still remains as the better choice compared to the clubhouse area of Versailles Palace in Alabang. As such, expect a more TV- and audience-friendly set-up this time around.

By the way, this year’s Official Residence is the newly-built Green Sun Hotel in Makati City.

Do check out the pre-arrival photos of the 2014 candidates HERE.

Back in the loving arms of UP Theater, Miss Earth 2014 will be.

And just to reminisce a bit, watch the Eco-Beauty video of the reigning Miss Earth during last year’s competition.

Mother Earth has a new muse, and she is Olga Alava Vargas of Ecuador.

Just awhile back, Miss Earth 2011 culminated in her crowning during glittering rites held at the UP Theatre. She is the first Ecuadorian to win the title, as she bested 84 other delegates along the way.

Comprising the quartet of elements for 2011 are: Driely Bennettone of Brazil, Miss Air; Athena Mae Imperial of the Philippines, Miss Water and Caroline Medina of Venezuela, Miss Fire.

Making it to the top 8 are the representatives of Zimbabwe, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Crimea and Mexico.

Congratulations to all the winners!

Job well done, Nicole Faria!

Miss Earth 2010 Nicole Faria will come full circle tomorrow night when she crowns her successor at the UP Theatre. It was a meaningful reign for the beautiful Indian lass who wowed everyone last year in Nha Trang, Vietnam where she became the first representative from her country to win the Miss Earth title. From that point, she took part in a good number of environment-related activities, pursued Mother Earth-friendly causes and even spearheaded a flood relief operation in Thailand a couple of months back.

As big sister to the 85 delegates this year, she displayed  an affable and natural warmth while discretely scouting each one of them to see who deserves to win the 2011 crown.

The big question is: will she be crowning another Indian? Not a far-fetched possibility because Hasleen Kaur is also an outstanding beauty queen. We’ll see what happens! 😉
