IN FAIRNESS, pang-“Maalala Mo Kaya” at “Magpakailanman” din pala ang makulay at madramang life story ni Miss World Philippines 2021 Tracy Maureen Perez.
Marami ang nagsasabing manalo man o matalo ang Cebuana beauty queen ay pwedeng-pwede rin siyang sumabak sa pag-aartista dahil napakarami niyang pwedeng paghugutan sa personal niyang buhay.
Sabi nga ni Tracy sa kanyang introduction video sa Miss World 2021, “My life story is not all glittered in gold.”
Isa raw siyang “miracle baby” at mag-isang inalagaan at itinaguyod ng kanyang Mommy Chona na pumanaw noong 2010, na isa ring beauty queen.
“I grew up accepting that while I live independently, I am meant to be of service to others.
“From the humble pageant platforms to the grand and glorious stages, I am living my purpose.
“In the words of Puerto Rico’s most celebrated poet, I am not merely the implacable, elegant lady. I am life, I am strength, I am woman,” ang pagpapakilala pa niya sa buong mundo.
Sa isang panayam naman, inamin ni Tracy na wala raw talaga sa plano niya ang mag-join sa mga beauty pageant, “To be honest, hindi ko siya dream (maging beauty queen) noong super bata pa ako.
“Parang dyino-joke ako ni mommy na ikinukwento niya ‘yung mga experiences niya pero hindi po ako masyadong nakikinig kasi parang hindi ko siya gusto before. Pero noong na-try ko siya one time noong college na po ako sa school, parang ang saya pala,” lahad ng dalaga.
Inalala rin niya sa nasabing panayam na premature siya nang ipanganak. Natakot nga raw ang mommy niya na baka hindi na siya magka-baby matapos maaksidente noong 18 years old pa lamang ito.
“As in sinabihan po talaga siya ng doctors na never na po talaga siyang magkakaanak kasi sa lahat ng operations na pinagdaanan niya and in the past hindi pa po masyadong maganda ang mga hospitals doon.
“Sinabihan po talaga siya na 30 years old na lang po ‘yung lifespan niya, hindi na po siya magkakaanak,” pagbabalik-tanaw ng pambatong kandidata ng Pilipinas sa Miss World 2021.
Samantala, kanselado na ang gaganapin sanang Miss World 2021 grand coronation night ngayong araw matapos magpositibo sa COVID-19 ang 17 katao na involved sa pageant.
Ilang oras bago ang event ay nagdesisyon ang Miss World Organization na i-postpone muna ang global broadcast finale ng international beauty pageant at ire-reachedule na lamang ito “within 90 days sa Jose Miguel Agrelot Coliseum of Puerto Rico (Coliseo de Puerto Rico).”
“After meeting with the virologists and medical experts hired to oversee the Miss World 2021 event and discussing with the Puerto Rico Health Department, the decision has been made by the organizers of the event to postpone the globally broadcast finale at the Puerto RicoColiseum Jose Miguel Agrelot to be held within the next 90 days.
“As of yesterday, additional safety measures were implemented in the best interest of the contestants, production team and spectators, understanding the event increased risks on the stage and in the dressing room.
“However, after additional positive cases were confirmed this morning after consulting with health officials and experts, the postponement decision was made.
“The next step according to the medical experts is immediate quarantine, pending observation and further testing according to best practices in situations like this.
“Once and only when contestants and staff are cleared by health officials and advisors, will contestants and related staff return to their home countries.
“We are very much looking forward to the return of our contestants, (who we have grown to know and love), to compete for the Miss World crown” ang opisyal na pahayag ni Julia Morley, CEO ng Miss World Ltd.
