Albay launches Philippines’ first beauty pageant academy

Published: November 30, 2011
Written by: Lovelyn M. Quintos, Correspondent | The Manila Times
LEGAZPI CITY, Albay: 18-year-old aspiring appeal queen Monica Belgica tilted her head back and lifted her chin a little.
The Five’ Eight” dusky Bicolana then walked the runway with different local pageant titlists to mark the official start of the Albay Pageant College (APA) here on November Twenty Five.
Belgica’s great facial features and lanky make look like those of Binibining Pilipinas Universe 2010 Maria Venus Raj, in addition a Bicolana.
“I hear scores of persons state I put in remembrance them of Venus Raj. It’s a huge privilege for me since all of us know that Venus has given such an esteem to our country,” she said.
Raj of Bato, Camarines Sur province, completed 4th jogger-up in the Miss Universe Pageant last year after a weak question-and-reply (QA) performance that many thought cost her the title.
“I have done a lot of missteps, however I think it is just genuine for people. All of us have missteps and I consider missteps as challenges for you to do much better other time,” Belgica answered when asked the same question thrown at Raj in 2010.
She acknowledged that she battled in the Q A portion, however evidently her individuality and appeal made her stand out at the Mutya ng Bacacay 2011 contest.
The crown obtained her a scholarship at the APA, a plan of the Albay provincial authority geared towards supplying a coaching ground for Albayanas poised to join nationwide appeal pageants.
‘Big deal’
Here in Albay, an attraction pageant is a pretty huge deal. The partakers indeed outlay scores of cash in an attraction pageant. The prize ranges from P 150,000 to P200, 000 just for the title,” provincial board member Glenda Bongao, the key supporter of the plan, said.
Nationwide pageant winners 1999 Bb. Pilipinas-Universe Miriam Quiambao, 2009 Bb. Pilipinas-Intercontinental Melody Gersbach and 2011 Bb. Pilipinas-Intercontinental Dianne Necio trace their roots to Albay.
Bongao said that the appeal-pageant college provided coaching in individuality development and conducts speech courses, which, she added, would help local promising pageant winners do well in larger competitions.
“That is a college like no different since it tries to dig deep in the real essence of appeal. It is a college that considers appeal not as a physical feature or maybe a fashion sense. It is a college that espouses the principle of appeal as an daily life,” in accordance with the provincial board member.
In the Philippines, the APA is the first school only geared towards appeal pageantry and supported by the authority.
Winners of local pageants in Albay for example Miss Bicol Academy, Miss Governor’s Cup, Mutya ng Pulang-Angui, Mutya ng Tabak, Mutya ng Ibalong and Mutya ng Magayon would be given main concern admission to the college.
Not Like usual schools, though, the APA lacks real infrastructure.
“Some were asking me where the school is, they wish to see it. However the APA has no real lecture rooms. We’ll just supply coaching from professionals,” Bongao said.
She added that the provincial authority took pride in Albayanas representing the Philippines in the intercontinental appeal arena, so, its support for the college.
Crown shy
In the history of intercontinental appeal pageants, 2 Filipinas have brought home the Miss Universe crown (Gloria Diaz in 1969 and Margie Moran in 1973), 4 Miss Intercontinental titles (Gemma Cruz in 1964, Aurora Pijuan in 1971, Melanie Marquez in 1979 and Precious Lara Quigaman in 2005) and none from the Miss Planet competition.
Early that seven days, Bb. Pilipinas-Intercontinental 2011Necio reached the destination from the Miss Intercontinental pageant in China, where she made it to the Top Fifteen.
Bongao was part of the Philippine delegation who supported Necio and she observed that height remains a benefit when joining intercontinental pageants.
In individuality and in assurance, Filipinas stand out amongst the faces of appeal from every single one nation, she said.
For local pageant winners to go farther in future competitions, the APA would select tall young ladies to undergo coaching at the college.
“When we went to China to support Dianne, we observed that those that qualified for the next rounds were as a rule tall. We thought it would be much better if we pick to develop those that are brilliant with height,” Bongao said.
Party of beauty
Though she said that there would be speech courses for critical conversation methods, the students need not be fluent in English.
“It has been an issue ever since on if our representatives should have an interpreter like different states. To us, it doesn’t matter. Whatsoever language the competitor discovers herself more cozy in, then she could use that. As great communicators, the partakers might pick their medium as far as they could express themselves well,” Bongao elucidated.
Other Ones could discover appeal pageants, not to say an attraction pageant school, a kind of exploitation of ladies, however not Bongao and Belgica.
“That is a party of appeal. The college won’t push ladies to amend what nature has endowed them with. The college will improve what nature has brilliant them with,” Bongao said.
“To some it is a way to reach their dreams and achieve their objectives, not for them to be exploited. It just hinges on how a real appeal queen will handle it,” Belgica said.
