Mutya ng Pilipinas Looks for Girls Who Possess Beauty and Intelligence

Early Screenings in Manila for the Mutya ng Pilipinas beauty pageant were completed on July 7th, and already the girls are more beautiful this year than ever. As the committee moves on to Davao and Cebu to complete their early rounds of national screening, anticipation is running high for what they expect to be the best Mutya ng Pilipinas beauty pageant ever.

The committee is working hard to get the best potential candidates to join the competition. They’ve set a higher standard this year for beauty and intelligence. Ms. Tati Fortuna, Managing Director of Scribbleworks, the company that recently bought the rights to manage the Mutya ng Pilipinas franchise, says that she’s looking for girls who have a natural appeal and exceptional eloquence. She must possess a strong beautiful presence.

One of the girls who stood out at the screenings was Suzette Hernadez. Her passion for the gym and healthy living resonated with one of the judges. She said, “I love working out especially in the early morning. It gives me so much energy for the rest of the day. I really believe that health means beauty.”

The best universities in the country are also well represented with two girls coming from esteemed Ateneo de Manila University and de la Salle College of St. Benilde. Carla Lizardo is a varsity player on the Badminton team at Ateneo. Erika Marie Syhongpan studies Consular and Diplomatic Affairs at de la Salle College and hopes to become an ambassador one day.

Many of the girls that came to the July 7th screening came prepared for judges’ questions about Philippine tourism, which is the main platform of the Mutya ng Pilipinas pageant. This year, several provinces will be featured for their renowned tourist destinations.

Some of the girls who would move on to the Final Screening at Resorts World Manila on July 24th, 2010 were invited back for a fun photo shoot treated with a high-fashion style, a strong departure from the usual cosmetic treatment seen in local pageants in years past.

The next rounds of Official Screenings will be held on July 18th in the Aegean Room at the Waterfront in Cebu from 1pm to 5pm and on July 23rd in Davao. The Coronation Night for this year’s Mutya ng Pilipinas will take place in the new auditorium at Resorts World Manila on August 28th, 2010. The live show will air on ABS-CBN on September 5th, 2010.

SHARON ANGEL VIES FOR MUTYA NG PILIPINAS 2010?
by Ariel Allera

Let me just share with you an article by me which came out on Cebu Daily News last Wednesday. Thanks)

SHARON GRACE ANGEL: A Precious Gem From The South
By ARIEL ALLERA

One of Cebu’s billboard belles and runway divas gracefully stays tuned to her surname by being such an angel’s breath of fresh air everywhere she comes.

Whether wearing her prescribed uniform daily to the University of San Carlos as a Tourism Management major, or donning a Dexter Alazas at the Philippine Fashion Week, Sharon Grace Angel brings around an aura that softens any hard moment, courtesy of her peaceful presence and tales worth telling.

She begins, “I never run out of stories to share, be it from my personal experiences or those I’ve heard from my ever supportive grandma during dinner.”

The 19-year-old sought-after model and multi-titled beauty queen paid a quick visit to Cebu for a good four days off from her three-week pre-pageant activities to the 2010 Mutya Ng Pilipinas Search on August 28 at Resorts World Manila (to be telecast later on September 5 via ABS-CBN).

Sharon shares, “I’m very honored to be one of Region 7′s candidates to this prestigious national beauty pageant. I’m representing Lapu-Lapu City, and I’m hoping to come home with any of the three titles at stake.”

This year, three all-important crowns will be worn by top three winning contestants, each of whom will represent the Philippines to such global beauty quests as Miss Asia Pacific-International, Miss Intercontinental, and Miss Tourism Queen International.

An outstanding five-feet-nine height and a voluptuous 34-25-37 frame are just two of Sharon Angel’s edge over her 23 fellow contenders from the different cities and provinces in the country, not to mention the delegates representing various Filipino communities overseas.

“The pressure is there, but I’d like to have fun with my new friends and enjoy their company although, realistically speaking, every one of us is vying to become Mutya Ng Pilipinas. I know that the competition started from the day we arrived in Manila; but it will only paralyze me if I dread at the thought of our daily pressures,” Sharon admits sincerely, while promising to do her best and to give her all, by hook or by crook.

Sharon is one of Dexter Alazas’s precious angels, along with other A.D. Models Philippines members. Her recent feat was placing third runner-up in the Search for Miss Mandaue 2010 last May. In March, she represented Central Visayas to Mr. and Miss University-Philippines, an inter-varsity competition participated in by different universities in the country, each bringing the name of his and her region. She was awarded third runner-up at the University of the Philippines Theater in Diliman, Quezon City.

In 2009, Sharon won as Miss CESAFI (Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc.) Collegiate Division being the muse of The Warriors, the University of San Carlos basketball team; four years prior, she was also chosen as Miss CESAFI Secondary Division carrying the banner of University of San Jose-Recoletos. That same year, 2005, saw Sharon claiming her first title, Miss MILO Olympics, followed by Miss CVRAA (Central Visayas Regional Athletic Association) where she was adjudged as first runner-up. Then came the regional selection for 2007 Miss Teen Philippines, in which she was one of the three winners who went on to compete at the national level in Manila that put her in the top 10 slot.

More than anything, her high-class catwalk skills, and restrained beauty of style embellished with a precious promise to promote Philippine tourism, are truly what will make Sharon Grace Angel worthy of becoming our country’s next prized gem.
