Gabbi Garcia and Maymay Entrata — PH’s next beauty queens?
WHAT do Gabbi Garcia and Maymay Entrata have in common? Both are beauty queen materials.
Interviewed by some members of the entertainment media at separate events, both Gabbi and Maymay were asked if they have plans of joining national beauty pageants.
There’s no denying that Maymay is being groomed by former pageant hopefuls themselves and fellow celebrities that she has what it takes to clinch a major title, thus stand a chance to represent the country.
Maymay, however, isn’t keen on trying her luck: “It is not what my heart so desires.”
The Kapamilya actress says she might rethink her decision though if her condition is met: “Remove the Q & A portion!”
Isn’t Maymay asking for the impossible? Isn’t she aware that this is one of the highly anticipated segments in any beauty contest — whether it be local, national or even barangay (village)?
A test that there’s more to physical beauty than meets the eye, why is Maymay scared of it when she seems she can nail it after all?
In stark contrast, joining beauty pageants has been Gabbi’s childhood dream.
But given her showbiz commitments, commercial endorsements and alike, “I don’t think i can be able to squeeze it in my time table...but we’ll see!”
Without stressing the obvious, Gabbi’s problem lies in having too little time to achieve a big goal as opposed to Maymay’s with so much time but with too little “confidence.”
Has Maymay been browsing old editions of prestigious national pageants and is afraid she might turn out to be another Janina San Miguel who was a major disaster at the Q&A portion but nonetheless finished Binibing Pilipinas World 2008?
Or is Maymay simply taking a cue from our first ever Miss Universe Gloria Diaz to be oneself and not pretend to be someone that she is not?
I get it.
GUESS WHO? If this once-famous male personality (OFMP) had only agreed to run for public office in exchange for a huge sum of money, he wouldn’t have been going around to beg for financial help.
Reportedly, the OFMP was being wooed to try his luck in national politics by some super-affluent quarters who believed in his winnability but obviously had a “hidden agenda” behind his support.
Too smart to discern what this group was actually up to, the OFMP said he was willing to take the bait on the condition that a whopping P100 million be deposited in his account.
The OFMP was honest as he was practical enough to say: “What if I lost the elections? Did they think I still had a career I could go back to? At least, if I had P100 million I didn’t have to work my butt and just rest on my laurels!”
However, the group found the OFMP’s “asking price” way too exorbitant it had to make a counter offer, which the latter wasn’t happy about.
Since both parties wouldn’t agree, the group decided to scrap the deal.
Unfortunately for the OFMP, he’s reportedly been running out of luck these days all because of health issues plus a string of legal problems notwithstanding.
