They may have not won the crown but they surely showed the world that indeed, the Philippines is a powerhouse when it comes to beauty pageants.
Last Tuesday November 19, Ali Forbes was hailed 4th over all during the first staging of Miss Grand International in Bangkok, Thailand with Puerto Rico winning the crown. Ali was a hot favorite at the duration of the pageant and she didn’t disappoint at all thus continuing the lucky streak of the Philippines this year in the world of international pageants.

While last night, November 22 our representative Gil Wagas placed 5th behind the winner Mr. Venezuela at the conclusion of the Mister International 2013 in Indonesia. I’m doubly proud of Gil because he used to be a player of my school basketball team 🙂 I’m so damn proud of this guy!
