Miss Tagbilaran ’07, the ugliest and the worst, so farI missed to watch the Miss Tagbilaran last Friday held at the non-aircon HNU gym. I don’t watch local beauty pageants except when I’m not invited nor I have friends who’re joining or organizing it.
The good thing is I wasn’t able to witness such “horrible†show. Why “horrible?†True has been receiving text messages from friends and beauty enthusiasts sharing their stories about the pageant.
I had enough Miss Tagbilaran beauty pageants before. The last time I watched was last year’s. It’s a common sense, even the simplest people her eon earth that it was a no good show although the event organizer claimed it as the “best†beauty pageant compared to the previous years. In fact, there were many elements overblown… especially during the swimsuit competition that the girls looked like prostitutes according to the people. The choreographer must be reminded that it was Miss Tagbilaran and not a bikini contest.
How true that Rocky Jimenez, the choreographer and director of Miss Tagbilaran (this is his second time) have told Raul Gatal (and bragged) all pageants in the past were big flops. Ang iya ra kunong mga shows lami, Very Reliable Source (VRS) who’s close to Rocky said.
Only a handful few were inside the gym to watch the show which started very late. Mostly were government employees who’re forced to watch the show. The concept was amateurish and very plain according to a Bohol Wisdom PE teacher.
Nindot man ang previous beauty pageants. Karon lang siguro maot, a text message said. Maihap nimo nanan-aw. Basta way lami. Worst pageant I had watched, another texter commented. And these people don’t lie. There were those who walked out and didn’t finish the proclamation of the winners. The candidates, too, were not impressive, so as to say, the worst batch.
The production head could not say his “show†is the best one compared to previous pageants. Let the people of Tagbilaran judge your show.
Tagbilaranons don’t deserved such rancid, decayed and less quality production.
