From the desk of Leo Udtohan:

Is there a beauty queen who’s running this coming May elections?

These questions were raised by True readers last week and these generated a debate among pageant aficionados. Why these people are talking about beauty pageants? Simply because ‘tis a season of beauty pageant…sooner or later we’ll learn the new breed of beauty queens in the province (hopefully no longer “recycled” beauties).

I wrote a story about beauty queens (the Bohol Sandugo winners) a year ago (which can be accessed at www.bohol.ph). As of this writing, I asked the help of Raul Gatal, personality guru, seasoned host and “beauty expert” and Fiel Angelie Araoarao-Gabin, who is also a beauty queen and a favorite judge of beauty pageants to locate and update the roaster of beauty queens in the province.

Drum roll, please….

The winner? Yes, Holy Name University (formerly the Divine Word College of Tagbilaran)! It leads University of Bohol (Rafael Palma College) by a wide margin.

There is only one beauty queen who turned politician. She’s Paula Raagas-Valles--a graduate of Bohol High School, former Miss Bohol High School and served as municipal mayor of Maribojoc for many years.

Marcel Gatal-Diego--A BS commerce major in management graduate from DWC-Tagbilaran, Miss Young Bohol 1983 and best in gown besting 34 beauty delegates from all over the province. She was also Hiyas ng Silangan-Bohol 1982 and was a top ten finalist in the 1982 Hiyas ng Silangan-Philippines pageant where she won the Miss Talent award. She is married to businessman Antonio Diego.

Ma. Recelle Adlaon-Paredes--1991 Miss Bohol Sandugo, a BS nursing graduate of DWC-Tagbilaran, she finished her M.A. in nursing at Cebu Normal University and is presently a clinical instructor of HNU-College of Nursing.

Jennifer Ejoc-Sarmiento finished her BS in Education from HNU and is presently pursuing her M.A. in Education at the Cebu Normal University. She is also a faculty member of the College of Arts & Sciences in her alma mater.

Socorro D’ Mari “Tali” Inting--finished her law degree from HNU and is now a full- fledged lawyer and based in Cebu City.

Josely Ferniz-Tatad--finished her BS Commerce at HNU and is now pursuing her BS in Nursing in the same university.

Mellanie Wallace--BS Nursing degree holder from HNU and is now a registered nurse working in a New York hospital

Perla Fernando Salig-Bb. Pilipinas 1979 first runner-up, Miss Loboc Academy and Miss Commerce at Divine Word College now Holy Name University. She won the Mutya ng Bohol pageant in Cebu sponsored by the Circulo Boholano de Cebu in 1998. She represented the Central Visayas to the 1979 Bb. Pilipinas. Salig is married to Danny Teves with whom she has four sons. She runs a boutique business here in Bohol and Cebu.

Chan Cajegas- finished her high school and college at the University of Bohol, Miss UB, Miss Bohol Int'l 1999 and a registered a Physical Therapist. She is married to Raymond Casabal.

Loida Tiza Salve Lagonoy--Miss UB, who is taking up Nursing at the University of Bohol is the Miss Bohol International 2006.

Lemme guess. They require pretty freshmen to take up at least six units of "How to Kick Some Serious Beauty Queen Ass."  ;D

Dear Leo, you are such a beautiful person I don't even hate you for not giving me a heads-up each time you visit Cebu.

Oh, but hero member, you are late. I've welcomed him. He has thanked me for the welcome, in fact. Instead of garlands, I offered to give him a necklace with my cornea or my kidney as the pendant. Check your inbox. I cc'd you. I always cc you in my welcomes, in case I slip and tell them the site owner has promised them a parcel of land in exchange for active posting. Hahaha.

About the topic...

Is the article talking about school beauty queens who became politicians or school beauty queens who won in other beauty contests?

At any rate, maybe its the culture of the school or the development of the mindset of the individual. 

Beauty pageants at schools happen all the time usually as part of the foundation day celebration. In some schools, the ladies are just content to join (or coerced to join) in the such contests and those who are crowned do not desire to search for higher glory.

This smacks of a grand conspiracy to hide the non-existent, to identify the nameless, to paint a picture of the unseen. -- Benelynne

I stand staunchly by my earlier reply. Why be a beauty queen when you could do so much more? Form an uling cartel lagi or head a tricycle syndicate.  ;D

Oh, and being born pretty is the worst thing that could ever happen to a girl. I promise to expound on this after I've successfully cloned myself and met my deadline as a result.

...it's about beauty queens who are always beauty queens in any contest...  :)
