Last night the most prestigious beauty pageant in the country was held known as The Bb. Pilipinas 2009 in it's 45th year live at The Araneta Coliseum. 23 beauties from different regions and cities of the Philippines have gathered to compete for 3 crowns and 2 runners-up title. I have noticed that Bb. Pilipinas organizers have been focusing on the Bb. Pilipinas-World title for the last two years i think the said title was always been called last and supposedly it's the Bb. Pilipinas-Universe to be called last (as being the highest of them all) But my observation here is that maybe the organizer wanted the most fairest, most inteligent of the three finalist to compete for the Miss World instead for the Miss Universe coz we have yet to bring home the Miss World crown up to this date the closest being 1st Princess and 2nd Princess courtesy of Evangeline Pascual (1973) and Sharmaine "Ruffa" Gutierrez (1993). Anyways here are the names, photos and the profiles of Bb. Pilipinas 5 tittle holders:

Another interesting note in the last nights pageant is some celebrity judges like: Mac-mac Cardona (Talk 'n Text PBA basketball player), matinee idol Richard Gomez, and Asia's song bird Ms. Regine Velasquez.
Lastly, I pity for candidate #3 Richelle Anggalot's (Rich Asuncion) question from one of the judges she had chosen, the question for her is: "What is your lucky number and what is it's significance to your life?" What if she don't really have a lucky number or she doesn't even believe in lucky stuffs like that so how would she ever relate to that question. I guess Rich just uttered whatever came to her mind and she thought of the number 11 being the 11 month (November) where she first had a boyfriend (is it Aljur Abrenica?) and she first experience love and it made her a better person...BOW! lolz!
