65th Miss Universe is Iris Mittenaere of France!

So today (Philippine time) is the 65th Miss Universe coronation night. I'm excited. Good thing I was able to watch it becos we now have TV here at the office.

I'm happy for the results of the Miss Universe 2016. And I'm also happy with the Philippines' bet Maxine Medina's top 6 finish. She gave it her all and we are truly proud of her. It ain't easy being in the top 6, right?

But what I am most happy about is that finally,  a girl from a European country wins as the new Miss Universe! Yaaaay! I've always wanted someone from Europe to win the prestigious pageant in the universe! It's been a long while, you know? If we won't count Russia's win back in 2002, we had waited for 26 years (Norway won Miss Universe in 1990) for a European girl to be crown as Miss Universe.

This edition gave me a lot of roller coaster ride of feelings! The girls in the top 13 were unpredictable! Congratulations, Iris Mittenaere for winning the title of 65th Miss Universe. And congratulations to your country and to Europe! You finally got the crown. Amaaaaazing!

Vive la  FRANCE!

Miss Universe 2015 is Philippines' Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach!!!

OMG OMG OMG! I've wanted to post this already since it has become my blog's tradition to have an entry about the winners of the annual Miss Universe pageant. But since I've become too lazy to put up anything here on my blog, I only found the time to write something about Miss Universe today.

I have finally seen a Filipina being crowned as Miss Universe in my lifetime. Thought I would never get to see that day.

Isn't she lovely? the royal blue gown is perfect with the Miss Universe crown.

I guess the world already know how much the Philippines is obsessed about beauty pageants, especially about the Miss Universe pageant. We are so passionate about it. And that remarkable day of December 21, 2015 (December 20 in Las Vegas), the 42 year drought of the Philippines from the Miss Universe crown has finally come to an end. Thanks so much to our beautiful, elegant, amazing Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach~ the Miss Universe crown is finally ours once again. I was very elated and overwhelmed when Philippines was announced as the real Miss Universe 2015.  It actually made me cry. For years, I've been wanting to see a Filipina be crowned as Miss Universe in my lifetime. It finally came true! Oh my, god!

The announcement of the winner had a confusion at first, I'm sure the people around the world knew what happened that night of the coronation. But I'm so glad that real winner of the 64th edition of Miss Universe is the Philippines. And I hope everyone, especially the fans and supporters of Miss Colombia should accept that fact. Though I still think that Ariadna Gutierrez did not deserve that kind of humiliation and embarrassment, please know and accept that it's not Pia's fault. Pia did not take the crown away from Ariadna. It's the host's fault and mistake. And Steve Harvey had apologized for it already. I just hope and wish that both the fans of the girls should stop all this fighting and move on from this. After all, it's been a week already since the Miss Universe pageant.

I want to take this opportunity to say how grateful I am to Miss Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach for bringing pride in our country! You truly are the perfect Miss Universe! I still get teary-eyed whenever I see your pictures or videos of your interviews on TV or Youtube. You made me so happy---not only me, but all the Philippine nation. I believe you will be the best Miss Universe ever! We love you so much! :)

63rd Miss Universe is Colombia's Paulina Vega!

Kinda late post~

I'm not surprised that Colombia won the 63rd Miss Universe Pageant held in Doral, Miami, Florida. From the start, she was predicted to be the emerging winner in the said beauty pageant by lots of pageant enthusiast in the forum I frequented.

Paulina Vega's catwalk and body is such perfection!

I'm not a fan of Paulina but I admit that she is such a real beauty and I really think that she deserved winning the Miss Universe title. She is feisty, pretty, sexy, fierce, and charming on stage. It is only the second time her county bagged the Miss Universe crown. The last time Colombia won was in 1958.

Isn't she lovely? Congrats, Paulina Vega of Colombia!! :) I hope she will have a memorable reign as Miss Universe.

P/S the new crown ~ DIC crown looks like a kryptonite. LOL wth. seriously, Mr. Trump?

Gabriela Isler is Miss Universe 2013

Molly Isler from Venezuela (as I prefer to call her, that's her nickname) I think really deserves her win and I'm happy about it. She looks elegant, classy, queenly and she's beautiful. She totally fits the Miss Universe standards. Though, she wasn't my bet as Miss Universe 2013 (I wanted Spain to win or my sentimental favorite Great Britain who didn't get into the Top 5)  I think she would be a great Miss Universe. She's growing on me. I love her vibrant, friendly, and humble aura! And the Diamond Nexus crown looks perfect on her head. Congrats Venezuela!! Hope you have a great reign!

P/s: I'm also proud of Miss Universe Philippines Ariella Arida's 3rd-Runner up finish. I've known and believed even before the pageant finals night that she would enter the top 5 no matter what. Lol. Congrats, Ariella!
