The Lady who wants to design for The Donald
Donald Trump is an icon of modern day success — overcoming challenges and eventually building a business empire that is the envy all across the world.
With an illustrious career matched by an even more colorful personal life, Donald Trump has been in the public eye for decades.
But while this high profile man was already establishing his name in real estate, a little girl was already taking baby steps towards her own success.
Across the Pacific Ocean, Shamcey Supsup was her mother’s treasure. Bright and beautiful, she showed early signs of special talent and beauty. To her mother’s knowing eye, Shamcey was one day set to make her mark. She had big dreams for her daughter.
Shamcey excelled in school even early on, and heavily leaned towards the arts. Shamcey eventually graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of the Philippines-Diliman with a degree in Bachelor of Science in Architecture. She also topped the June 2010 Architecture Licensure Examination in July 2010.
Then there came an unexpected turn. Fresh from a victorious run at the Academe, Shamcey set her sights on an unlikely turf — beauty pageants. She was young enough to take that leap. It was her now or never moment, her mother advised her. She had beauty, brains, and the unwavering support of her loved ones. She aimed high and hit her target. On her first try, Shamcey bagged the title Bb. Pilipinas-Universe 2011. Now she is in Brazil to duplicate this triumph for the Philippines.
Two diverse paths to success. One already set, the other one just beginning. The stage is set as the man who is an epitome of accomplishment meets the lady who is the embodiment of a young achiever with honest and selfless ambition.
This September at the 2011 Miss Universe Pageant in Brazil, Donald Trump and Shamcey Supsup are set to cross paths, paving the way for the magnificent present ushering in a glorious future.

New York, NY – August 23, 2011 – For the first time ever, the Miss Universe Organization will offer a fan vote and an on-screen interactive technology to increase fan engagement worldwide during the 2011 MISS UNIVERSE® Competition. The pageant will air LIVE from Sao Paulo, Brazil on Monday, September 12th at 9 p.m. ET on NBC. Launching today is a pre-pageant fan vote built by CommerceTel (OTCBB: MFON) that will grant one of the 89 contestants automatic advancement to the semifinals, which will be announced during the LIVE telecast. On the night of the show, the iPowow “In The Now” technology will enable the home audience to ‘gamify’ their viewing experience by voting in real-time for their favorite contestant during the live telecast.
“CommerceTEL and IPOWOW technologies are two ways that we are incorporating our fans into our show and having them play an active role in the competition,” says Colin Hornett, Director of Digital Multimedia at the Miss Universe Organization. “We are constantly searching for new ways to involve our fans, and hope that we can continue to be at the forefront of fan engagement with our incredible global reach of approximately 1 billion followers from all over the world during the Miss Universe competition.”

MANILA, Philippines – After 10 days of training in Colombia, Bb. Pilipinas-Universe Shamcey Supsup arrived in the host city Sao Paolo in Brazil.
Other candidates have also started to come in.
The beauty queens did not waste time as they immediately went through photo shoots and dress rehearsals for the pageant.
Supsup’s roommate in the hotel is Miss Korea.
All candidates have come prepared for the most prestigious beauty pageant in the world.
“Yesterday, I had my gown, swimsuit, close-up photo and my other shots. Tomorrow, yung lahat ng voice-overs, lahat ng registration. Sa Friday pa ang mga official events,” said Supsup.
Supsup said she is is determined to give it her best and use everything she learned in training in her bid to win the contest. She also offers her efforts to God.
The 25-year-old beauty is thankful to all those who have picked her in this year’s online voting. The candidate with the most number of average votes will automatically enter the pageant’s semi-finals.
Meanwhile, Supsup’s mother, Marcey, is also getting ready to leave for Brazil along with a few friends to support her daughter.
Marcey is taking along a few items requested by her daughter.
“Nag-BBM [Blackberry Messenger] siya, sabi niya ‘I need more eyelashes. [Binibining Pilipinas Charities Inc. head Stella Marquez-Araneta] wanted me to bring more cocktail dresses for her,” Marcey shared.
She said she is very proud of her daughter, who graduated magna cum laude at the University of the Philippines and went on to top the architectural board exam.
She toured the ABS-CBN News team around their home, which is the first design by her daughter.
Marcey said she is confident her daughter will do all she can to make the Philippines shine in this year’s pageant.
The Miss Universe 2011 pageant will be aired live on ABS-CBN in the morning of September 13. – Report from Dyan Castillejo, ABS-CBN News
