Miss Philippines Enters The Wrong Miss Universe Competition

ATLANTA, Georgia (The Adobo Chronicles, Atlanta Burau) – There seems to have been some miscommunication between the Miss Universe Organization and the Philippines’ bet for the international beauty pageant.

As soon as Gazini Ganados stepped on stage as part of the National Costume Competition, she realized she may have worn the wrong attire.  She appeared in an over-the-top silver gown, complete with headdress and a silver eagle on either shoulder,

Speaking with The Adobo Chronicles backstage, Ganados said she and her designer misread the guidelines issued by the Miss Universe Organization.

”We were so excited that we totally missed the “National Costume Competition” part of the guidelines.  We thought it said “Halloween Costume Competition.”

Gazini dispelled rumors that she will be donning a “Darna” costume during the final night’s swimsuit competition.

Philippines Has Two Chances For Miss Universe Crown This Year

ATLANTA, Georgia (The Adob Chronicles, Atlanta Bureau) –  When the 2019 edition of the Miss Universe Beauty Pageant kicks off this week, the Philippines will have two chances of winning the crown — making the odds of a back-to-back victory (the reigning title holder is Filipina Catriona Gray) unbeatable.

Philippines wil be represented by, well, Miss Philippines and Miss Belgium.

Miss Philippines is Gazini Ganados and Miss Belgium is Angeline Flor Pua.

While born in Belgium, Pua’s father is Chinese-Filipino and her mother is Filipina.  Philippines is in her blood.

Bring out the popcorn and gear up for the next Miss Universe —another Filipina?

Philippines: First Olympic Gold, Fifth Miss Universe Crown?

The Philippines has won 3 silver, 7 bronze but no gold medals since it started participating in the Olympic Games. On the brighter side, the country has had four Miss Universe title holders and is in the top 5 countries with the most crowns.

Now the country has the chance to win its first Olympic gold and its fifth Miss Universe crown.

We pin our hopes on Carlos Yulo and Gazini Ganados.

Yulo recently made headlines when he won gold in the floor exercises at the World Artistic Gymnastics in Stuttgart, Germany.  He will represent the Philippines in next year’s Tokyo Olympics.

Ganados, on the other hand,  is this year’s Philippine representative to the Miss Universe Beauty Pageant to be held in Atlanta, Georgia. Pageant predictions list her among the top favorites to win the crown, and possibly to  nail back-to-back honors for the Philippines.  The reigning Miss Universe is Filipina Catriona Gray.

In fact, odds put Ganados right behind another Asian beauty, Miss Thailand.

So what does it take for Yulo and Ganados to bring home the bacon? Twists and turns — on the exercise floor and the pageant ramp, respectively.

So, Filipinos, gird your loins.  We predict a double victory.

And, you may ask: what credentials does a satire site like The Adobo Chronicles have to make such a prediction?

Well, our motto is: sometimes, life imitates satire.  And we have proven it many times before!
