hmmmm, 15 must be the new unlucky number?? Even one of the posters at that multiply account also pointed it out.

Anyways, back on topic. I heard sa news last nyt na gi-tirahan man kuno ni Ruffa Guttierz si Janina about her english.

In reaction to the outrage against the Bb. Pilipinas judges and San Miguel, [Ruffa] Gutierrez proved herself a Miss Congeniality to the end. Speaking with ABS-CBN's Mario Dumaual, she explained why it's important for a beauty queen to show competence in her speech and thought processes.

"I believe that a beauty pageant should be judged not only for the beauty but for the brains. Kasi you're representing your country in an international competition. You're gonna be with different delegates from different countries so you have to represent the Philippines in the best way you possibly can.

So that's not just your... physical beauty and also the way you speak, the way you carry yourself. I mean, pangit naman sabihin ang mga Pilipinang, you know, hindi marunong sumagot, 'di ba? Hindi marunong mag-English. To think na 98 percent of our population ay nag-i-English," she said.

The former Miss World winner then added that San Miguel should not get discouraged by all the ridicule coming her way, and instead gather the strength and will to better herself.

"Binibining Pilipinas World has seven months. So dapat gamitin niya yung seven months na 'yon para i-challenge yung sarili niya. Mag-aral siya, mag-aral siya ng speech lessons; mag-aral siya how to have confidence, how to carry herself, at ipakita niya sa mga taong nagri-ridicule sa kanya, 'Aba, kaya ko 'to. Magsa-shine ako sa Miss World at gagalingan ko the next time," she said.

(She should use the seven months interim between now and the Miss World pageant to take speech lessons and learn to have more confidence and prove all her critics wrong.)

"But always remember, beauty with a purpose and beauty with brains," was Gutierrez[sic] final piece of advice.

Now that San Miguel has captured the limelight because of her English, Melanie Marquez(Miss International 1979) made this comment, which, unfortunately, is in Filipino:

"May karapatan siyang magkamali sa Ingles kung maganda siya (She has the right to make mistakes in English if she's beautiful)."

@diem: OK. My Bad.

Well there its is:

"Binibining Pilipinas World has seven months. So dapat gamitin niya yung seven months na 'yon para i-challenge yung sarili niya. Mag-aral siya, mag-aral siya ng speech lessons; mag-aral siya how to have confidence, how to carry herself, at ipakita niya sa mga taong nagri-ridicule sa kanya, 'Aba, kaya ko 'to. Magsa-shine ako sa Miss World at gagalingan ko the next time," she said.

Hope Ms. San Miguel can improve during that seven month stretch. :mrgreen:

"May karapatan siyang magkamali sa Ingles kung maganda siya (She has the right to make mistakes in English if she's beautiful)."

Making mistakes in English is different from talking with sense. Melanie Marquez didn't get it.. as expected.

Birds of the same feathers are birds.. aw flock together diay.
