I only use my TV for three things: disaster-monitoring, Smart Gilas games, and beauty pageants! It came handy this evening because I wasn't able to watch live The Binibining Pilipinas 2015 Coronation Night at Smart Araneta Coliseum. So here I am blogging my thoughts in between commercial breaks.
Congratulations to Miss Universe Philippines 2015 Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, Binibining Pilipinas International 2015 Janicel Lubina, Binibining Pilipinas Intercontinental 2015 Christi Lynn McGarry, Binibining Pilipinas Supranational 2015 Rogelie Catacutan, and Binibining Pilipinas Tourism 2015 Ann Lorraine Colis!
The New Queens
Congratulations to Miss Universe Philippines 2015 Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, Binibining Pilipinas International 2015 Janicel Lubina, Binibining Pilipinas Intercontinental 2015 Christi Lynn McGarry, Binibining Pilipinas Supranational 2015 Rogelie Catacutan, and Binibining Pilipinas Tourism 2015 Ann Lorraine Colis!
- Pia Wurtzbach finally nailed it and was crowned as the new Miss Universe Philippines. I've been rooting for Pia since 2013 so I am very happy for her win. I was actually a bit worried for her because she was drown out by some girls at the Coronation Night. She did not ace in all the segments but her gorgeous face, nice styling, poise, and her years of beauty pageant training/expertise prevailed. Much deserved win I must say!
- Janicel Lubina deserves the Binibining Pilipinas International crown. I would've wanted her to be a runner-up this year for greater Miss Universe Philippines glory next year but her performance last night is too great and cannot be ignored...so a crown it is...even if it's not THE crown! Janicel's 'Cinderella' story will surely make waves in Japan at the Miss International 2015 competition.
- Christi McGarry and Ann Colis were crowned last night as predicted. The two did not disappoint and performed very well as expected. Christi might have a problem though since she already competed in Miss Intercontinental years ago. Norman's Blog said that she might switch representation with Rogelie for Supranational. This has to be sorted by BPCI soon with their lawyers. I also hope that there will be a Tourism pageant that Ann could represent this year. It will be such a waste of beauty if there will be no international pageant to speak of. [Update: Christi and Rogelie will not switch crowns. Christi will compete for the 2nd time at the Miss Intercontinental Pageant.]
