Battle Of The Titans At The Binibining Pilipinas 2012!

Each year, girls from all over the country flocks in Araneta Center, Cubao to submit their application to the most prestigious and oldest national beauty pageant in the Philippines  headed by Mrs. Stella Marquez de Araneta, the Binibining Pilipinas. All of these girls are hoping to be part of the official candidates of this pageant that send girls to international pageants such as Miss Universe, Miss International and Miss World (until in 2011 when the Miss World Organization decided to grant its franchise to another pageant director that conceived the first Miss World-Philippines Beauty Pageant )

After the great success of Venus Raj and Shamcey Supsup from the past two edition of the Miss Universe – where both placed as 4th runner-up and 3rd runner-up in 2010 and 2011 respectively, pageant pundits are more than ever eager to see the girls that will follow their footsteps.

Some of the girls rumored to join this year’s edition are ABS-CBN talent and Channel V VJ Megan Young, Hotel singer and model, Ali Forbes, TV5’s Arci Munoz and the two runners-up from last year, Janine Tugonon and  MJ Lastimosa – both hoping to do a Dianne Necio this year.

This year is expected to surpass last year’s edition and the battle for the two grand slam crowns (Universe and International) is said to be a bloody one come finals night. Each camp managing some of the girls who are said to be joining are secretly watching each other’s back to measure the caliber of the girls that they will be fielding for the screening.

If you think that you’ve got the guts and the goods to take over the Universe and the International beauty arena – the screening is extended until February 7, 2012. Will this year live to its hype? Let’s wait and see….
