Bangkok (AFP) - Filipina beauty queen hopefuls competed for the Miss Philippines 2011 title in Cubao, Quezon City. Of the 108 applicants for Miss Philippines, only 24 will be included to be candidates for Miss Philippines 2011.
108 beautiful ladies would compete in order to enter the twenty-four finalist round to later win the Miss Philippines 2011 titile.
These lovely, attractive ladies come from all corners of the country, hoping to represent the Philippines in the Miss Universe and Miss International contests.
Miss Universe-Philippines Venus Raj believed that the screening committee would have a challenging time choosing the most beautiful lady as contestants are so gorgeous.
The competition has brought honor to the Philippines for fourty-seven years, and this kind of beauty legend will continue, according to Raj (as cited at http://www.bbpilipinas.com).
The Coronation Night will take place in April and be telecast live at ABS-CBN. The Miss Universe contest will be held at Sao Paolo, Brazil in September.
The screening committee comprises Bb. Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BPCI) Chair Stella Marquez Araneta, BPCI directors Pitoy Moreno and Conchitina Sevilla-Bernardo, Ms. Universe-Philippines Venus Raj, Ms. International 2005 Precious Lara Quigaman, including current and past Bb. Pilipinas titleholders.
