PHILIPPINES DISQUALIFIED FROM BEAUTY PAGEANTS FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS

UPDATED – The ban on Filipina candidates to International beauty competitions has been extended for another two years, following the recent crowning of two Filipinas as ‘Miss Globe’ (Ann Lorraine Colis)  and ‘Miss Earth’ (Angela Ong).

The following story was from 2013:

Bangkok, Thailand – After today’s fourth-place finish of Annalie Forbes, the Philippines’ representative to the Miss Grand International Beauty Pageant in Bangkok, Thailand, the  Association of Beauty Pageant Franchise Holders (ABPFH) has banned the Philippines from future international beauty competitions, citing “enormous advantage” by Filipina candidates in practically all pageants this year.

The  disqualification will be in effect for two years.

The Philippines holds the distinction of having won the title in all major beauty competitions like Miss Universe, Miss World and Miss International.  Additionally, every new international beauty competition has seen a Filipina winning the title or placing in the top 5.  Earlier this year, Mutya Datul won the 2013 Miss Supranational Pageant.

Forbes is the fourth Filipino to make it to the top 5 in competitions this year. Megan Young, of course, bagged the 2013 Miss World title this year, the first-ever for the Philippines.  Before Young, Evangeline Pascual reached the finals and was first runner-up in 1973 while Ruffa Gutierrez was second runner-up in 1993.

Ariella Arida, the country’s bet in the 2013 Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow, Russia, placed fourth.

Other Filipina beauties who have won international titles include Gloria Diaz and Margie Moran (Miss Universe) and Gemma Cruz, Mimilanie Marquez, Aurora Pijuan, and Precious Lara Quigaman (Miss International). Karla Henry won the Miss Earth title in 2008.

In 2010, 2011 and 2012, the Philippines’  Venus Raj, Shamcey Supsup and Janine Tugonon were all in the top 5 in the Miss Universe competition.

ABPFH said that it is time for the Philippines to give other countries the chance to win international beauty competitions, adding that “the world already knows how beautiful and talented Filipinas are.”

  2. INGGIT BA???

    Why on earth at naisip nilang gawin yun? Ang ibig sabihin ba ay lahat ng kanilang kandidato ay madalas natatalo? Kahit yata sa ibang bansa pa gawin yung pageant ay depende talaga sa mga boboito or judges kung manalo o matalo mga “manok” natin. Sadya lang talagang MAGAGANDA ang mga Pinay natin, MATALINO pa!

    Ewan ko lang sa kanilang pambato kung anong meron sila…

  5. Prueba ang mga comment dito na kapos na kapos tayong mga Pilipino sa critical thinking, lalo na sa pagbasa ng mga satire. Emosyon muna ang gamit para bumasa bago ang logic. Ni sumagi ba sa isip ninyo na i-research muna kung mayroon nga talagang ABPFH?

  6. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!! It’s not my country’s fault that we’re winning the pageants! Every contestant from every participating country has their own equal chance of winning the crown or obtaining a title. Why would the Philippines have to be left out for a given time frame?!

    Your articles are misleading the uninformed. I don’t find humor in that.
