Bb. Pilipinas 2012: The Final Cut #MissUniverse

Bb. Pilipinas 2012: The Final Cut

 

From more than a hundred applicants to the ninety two aspirants accepted for the series of screenings, the Bb. Pilipinas Charities Inc. (BPCI) finally chose its candidates for the 2012 pageant. At stake are the most prestigious titles of Miss Universe Philippines, Bb. Pilipinas International and Bb. Pilipinas Tourism.

The country’s loveliest ladies went through days of rigorous screenings under the scrutiny of BPCI chair Stella Marquez Araneta, assisted by corporate and media partners ABS-CBN Special Projects head Chit Guerrero, Cita Rosales of David’s Salon, Uniprom’s COO Michael Noah, and Eddie Ocampo. Current and past Bb. Pilipinas beauty queens also came to form part of the screening committee. Among them were Miss Universe 2011 3rd runner up Shamcey Supsup, Miss Universe 2010 4th runner up Venus Raj, Bb. Pilipinas International 2011 Dianne Necio, Bb. Pilipinas Tourism 2011 Isabella Manjon, Ms. International 2005 Precious Lara Quigaman, Miss Universe Philippines 2009 Bianca Manalo, Bb. Pilipinas International 2008 Patricia Fernandez, Miss Universe Philippines 2008 Jennifer Barrientos, Bb. Pilipinas World 2009 Marie Ann Umali, Miss Universe Philippines 2005 Gionna Cabrera, Bb. Pilipinas World 2006 Anna Igpit, Bb. Pilipinas International 2006 Denille Valmonte and Miss Universe First Runner Up Miriam Quiambao.

The new set of candidates face a lot of pressure following the amazing top five finishes of Venus Raj and Shamcey Supsup at the Miss Universe 2010 and 2011 respectively.

The girls will plunge into a flurry of activities starting next week. On the day before Valentines, the candidates will be formally presented to the media. A series of photo shoots will ensue right after. The ladies will also be involved in a string of charity activities including a mission with Operation Smile Philippines in March. The Miss Universe Organization and Operation Smile Philippines have named the current Ms. Universe Philippines Shamcey Supsup as its Smile Ambassador.

The coronation night will be held on April 15, 2012 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum and will be aired live on ABS-CBN.
