I was looking forward to seeing the candidates of this year’s Slimmers’ World Miss Bikini Philippines pageant because they always find bikini-worthy beauties. And I certainly wasn’t disappointed! They had lots of beauties that looked great not just in their bikinis but also in their evening gowns.
Since I was part of the judging committee in the Long Gown Competition, I will refrain from telling you who my favorites are. However, I do have one favorite to win the crown. And I also have four other favorites that I felt stood out among this batch of contestants.
Let’s see if my bets will make it on coronation night, April 25, 2013 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena… 7 pm!
Thanks to Slimmers’ World for inviting me to help judge the Long Gown Competition!!!
Here are some photos my daughter took during the judging…
