Tag Archives: Miss World Philippines

I was just about to go to sleep when I got a tweet suggesting that Megan Young might have been turned down by the Binibining Pilipinas Organization for their 50th annual beauty pageant. I immediately checked the Missosology pageant site for confirmation. While there’s no official word from Megan herself, the tweets from her handler Jonas Gaffud and a close associate strongly imply that Megan didn’t pass the screening process; in fact, she didn’t even get the opportunity to screen at all.

Megan has been a heavy favorite of many pageant fans since last year, and this year, she was supposedly training very hard for the pageant, but alas, the stars and the whole universe are against her.

Apparently, there was an “emergency screening” that happened yesterday afternoon, and this is one of the results of that sad day.

The organization’s view of these types of things is so outdated! Many aspirants worldwide were allowed to compete in their national pageant (some even posing nude), and Megan’s shot is for a fashion magazine, for jeez sake! It irks me that they are being so uptight about this. When will they stop wasting beautiful modern Filipinas? 

I am now hoping that Megan will join the rival pageant of Binibini, The Miss World Philippines, and aim to get the first blue crown for the Philippines! Madame Stella’s loss is Cory Quirino’s gain!

For the record, the report about her disqualification hasn’t been 100% confirmed yet. I’m still hoping for Megan to be allowed to join and give the candidates this year a run for their money and high heels!
