Disappointed ang mga Pinoy sa naganap na Miss Universe 2012 pageant kahapon sa Las Vegas, USA.
We’re expecting kasi na si Miss Philippines Janine Tugonon na ang mananalo, pero tinalo pa rin siya ni Miss USA Olivia Culpo.
Some say na halatang-halata na may lutuang naganap sa contest, kitang-kita naman daw ang “winning moment” ng ating bet pero ginawa lang siyang 1st Runner-Up ng mga judges.
Sabi nga ni Maxene Magalona sa kanyang Twitter account, “Alam mo nang LUTO kapag hindi maganda ang sagot ng candidate AT NATAPILOK PA pero siya ang nanalo.
Isang malaking ANYAREH!?”
Ang iba pang nanalo sa pageant ay sina: 2nd Runner-Up Irene Esser, Venezuela; 3rd Runner-Up Renae Ayris, Australia; at 4th Runner-Up Gabriela Markus, Brazil.Here’s the question sa ating Miss Philippines during the pageant: If you have a heart to serve and a strong mind to show people then you can be Miss Universe?
Ang sagot ni Janine: “For me, being Miss Universe is not just about knowing how to speak a specific language.
It’s about being able to influence and inspire other people.
So whatever language you have as long as your heart is deserving and you have a strong mind to show to people, then you can be Miss Universe!”
