MISS Universe Catriona Gray and her team are a genius.
When Janine Tugonon, our Philippine representative in the 2012 Miss Universe commented that Catriona is “MOST PREPARED MISS PHILIPPINES WE’VE EVER SENT,” she had us thinking.
Oo nga. Catriona studied all the aspects of the Miss Universe pageant like a scientist would – from the gown to the catwalk style to the most-feared question and answer portion.
Mak Tumang, the head of Catriona’s team, designed five gowns for her, two of which had Catriona’s inputs. His “Ibong Adarna” gown for her was inspired by the beauty queen’s “resilience, tenacity and unwavering spirit.”
Catriona’s Lava gown which she wore in the finale was bursting with flame which evokes fire in her desire to help indigent children in Tondo. It also equates the lava cascading under Mayon Volcano, her native province’s most viewed tourist attraction.
Then there is her now-famous Lava Walk which was so impressive that online Vogue magazine dubbed as the “runway stomp worthy of fashion month.” Why, even Supermodel Tyra Banks was so impressed with Catriona’s catwalk skills which she described as “next level fierce.”
Even French designer Jean Paul Gaultier believed that the Lava walked will be the standard by which catwalk skills will be measured as it “may only be a matter of time before the lava walk hits the runway.”
Catriona’s camp truly processed the entire participation in the Miss Universe pageant like a scientist would. That’s a FACT!!!

Grabeng bash ang inabot ni Sylvia Sanchez all because she promoted on her Twitter account the movie of her daughter Ria Atayde.
“Abangan si potpot ko @RiaAtayde #thegirkintheorangedress sa Dec 25 sa #MMFF bilang si Kakai.”
That was the tweet of Sylvia which incensed netizens. Ang hula namin ay fans sila ni Alden Something.
Imbiyerna kasi sila kay Maine Something dahil nakikipag-date ito kay Arjo Atayde na anak din ni Sylvia.
Ang harsh ng comments nila against the award-winning actress.
“Kapal, nakikisawsaw para mapag usapan. Kadiri pamilya.”
“Dati ang simple lang ng buhay nyo, masaya. Pero nang pumasok sa relasyon kay Maine ayan nagulo na. Nanggigigil ako sa inyo lalo na sa ina.”
“Kaw pa yung nagturo na jowain ni Arjo si Maine. Kapal mo kaya huwag kang magagalit dahil galit na galit din kami sa iyo.”
Pero nabaliw ang mga bashers ng pamilya Arayde sa one liner reply ni Sylvia sa kanila. Sey nito, “Face be with you.”

Palaban na ang Eva Mapendo character ni Julia Barretto sa Ngayon At Kailanman.
On her Instagram account, Julia asked her followers kung sino ang uunahin niyang gantihan sa mga umapi sa kanya sa top rating nilang teleserye ni Joshua Garcia.
Unanimous ang say ng netizens, si Stella played by Alice Dixson. Sobra kasing pagpapahirap ang inabot ni Eva kay Stella kaya naman ang suggestion ng followers ni Julia ay ito ang unahing gantihan at pahirapan.
“Eva Mapendo is now ready for her revenge. So, who’s first on the list?” Julia asked on her IG account.
“Simulan mo na kay Stella.”
“Unahin mo c Stella pero wag mo patayin para mas ramdam niya!”
“Si STELLA lang naman ang may kasalanan. Puro galit lang naman yan lola ni Inno. At yong pumatay sa tatay mo patay na rin. Kailan ba malalaman na ang tunay na ina ni Inno ay si Ina Raymundo?”
“Yes! Yes! Yes! Sobra na yang stella na yan baliw!”
“Unahin si Stella at si Lucy! Sama ng mag inang yan! More sampal to Atellaaaaa!!!”
“Stella should be the last. Unahin ang lola ni Inno then Stella’s mom who is evil. Spare Inno and Oliver (Jameson Blake).”
With that, it is clear as the sky na effective na contravida si Alice. Ang daming avid followers ng Ngayon At Kailanman na muhing-muhi sa kanya.
