Yesterday, August 13 was a fitting send-off for the first Binibini delegate going overseas for her competition: Miss Supranational Philippines Mutya Johanna Datul will be going out of the country to fly to Belarus to compete in the Miss Supranational 2013 beauty pageant. 

Flanked by Madame Stella Marquez De Araneta, 2012 Miss Supranational 3rd RU Elaine Kay Moll and her binibini sisters, Mutya goes to Belarus bringing with her the charm, beauty and grace that will make her stand out with her other counterparts, hopefully be the first Asian Supranational titleholder of Miss Supranational.

News Bits Online will keep you posted on the results of Miss Supranational 2013. Good Luck Mutya!

Mutya Johanna Datul is all set for Miss Supranational 2013

 

The Voting Page for Miss Supranational Philippines Mutya Johanna Datul

In just over a few weeks from now, we expect the first BPCI send-off to be done on behalf of Mutya Johanna Datul, 2013 Miss Supranational Philippines who will be leaving for Minsk, Belarus a month before the actual contest. The voting page for Miss Internet in the 2013 edition has already been up however, just like last year, you would need to spend a minimum of $5.00 to vote for your favorite candidate, so if you have extra moolah you would not mind spending for this lady don't you?

How far will she go? Will she exceed the placement of Elaine Kay Moll (Miss Supranational 2012 3rd RU)? Me thinks she will blend well in Belarus and can give other candidates a run for the title currently held by Ekaterina Buraya of Belarus.

Michelle Speaks: How would you like Katrina Dimaranan to be Miss Supranational Philippines 2013?

 

I am a big fan of Pageant Facebook pages, of course, they get their sources elsewhere, sometimes they are even faster than Missosology (my handle is missMA and I don't post too often, the last time I posted was about the Bb. Pilipinas 2013 Prediction Game), one of those pages I follow has reported a rumor that Bb. Pilipinas Tourism 2012 Katrina Dimaranan will be the next Miss Supranational Philippines for 2013.

 

Upon hearing the news, I commented immediately on the photo, She has what it takes.

 

With their contracts expiring in October, I do not see any reason why not give a chance to Katrina, who has worked with Janine Tugonon (Miss Universe 1st Runner Up), Nicole Schmitz (Miss International Semifinalist), Elaine Kay Moll (reigning Miss Supranational Philippines) and Ali Forbes (Bb. Pilipinas 2nd Runner Up) in all Binibini events which much confidence and poise after winning the Tourism crown last April 15. It was unfortunate though that Kat's Miss Tourism Queen International stint did not pursue last year and there is no definite assurance of the rescheduled MTQI 2012 to be held sometime April.
The thought may be seem to be a consolation after Elaine who was the 1st Runner Up of the 2012 contest being sent instead of her but I think she wouldn't mind if ever it happens, after all, Supra is not in the official crown list of BBP and Elaine was also handpicked by Madam Stella Marquez Araneta.
Enough being said, this is a wait and see for me. I don't really have the idea where will the 'Supra' girl come from this year since it is not really included in the official crowns.

Pilipinas, with Janine Tugonon almost nailing it in the Miss Universe, Nicole Schmitz's Miss International semifinalist placement and Elaine Kay Moll's Miss Supranational 3rd Runner Up placement and what better way to end their reign than to help and enjoy at the same time with charity work, such as Operation Smile.

With Bb. Pilipinas Tourism Katrina Dimaranan (there is no news about MTQI 2012 taking place) and Bb. Pilipinas 2nd Runner Up Annalie Forbes, the reigning queens joined the Bb. Pilipinas 2013 candidates on one of its first activities, Operation Smile.

Look Back: Bb. Pilipinas 2012

While we carefully await who would be taking part in this year's pageant, News Bits Online gives you a look back to last year's Binibining Pilipinas which saw the crowning of Janine Tugonon as Miss Universe Philippines 2012, Nicole Schmitz as Binibining Pilipinas - International and Katrina Jayne Dimaranan as Binibining Pilipinas - Tourism. 

Also a part of the Top 5 are Elaine Kay Moll (Bb. Pilipinas 1st Runner - Up) and Annalie Forbes (Bb. Pilipinas 2nd Runner Up) .

2011 winners pose with Madam Stella Marquez Araneta: Bb. Pilipinas International Dianne Necio, Miss Universe 2011 3rd Runner Up Shamcey Supsup and Binibining Pilipinas Tourism Isabella Manjon.

   

The Official Bb. Pilipinas 2012 contestants: Combination of repeaters (Roxanne Tadique, Nicole Schmitz, Rose Ann Aguilar, Patricia Ejercitado and 2011 runners-up Janine Tugonon and Mary Jean Lastimosa) and fresh faces.

Notable Finalists:

 

Bb. Pilipinas 2011 2nd Runner Up Mary Jean Lastimosa had a different faith, she went less than what she had in 2011, but still she was one of the front - runners, I do hope she competes one more time.

Angelee Claudett Delos Reyes may have not been one of the Top 5 binibinis, but she has managed to prove that she can compete even in an international contest. She was the PH bet to Supermodel International, where she was part of the Top 10.

  

The Crowning Moment:

Biggest Question of Pageant Fans: Can Elaine Kay Moll join Bb. Pilipinas again?

Elaine Kay Moll

Miss Supranational 3rd Runner Up

With the success of Elaine Kay Moll in Miss Supranational, pageant netizens were asking if Bb. Pilipinas would be renaming her title to Bb. Pilipinas Supranational barring her to join in the succeeding pageants or her title be maintained as 1st Runner Up to make her eligible for the Miss Universe Philippines crown either the next year or on 2014.

Anyway, anyhow, Elaine is still like 20ish and is still a long way to be able to compete in another pageant. The next Miss Supranational Philippines have big shoes to fill. :)

Binibinis in waiting: Moll, Dimaranan and Schmitz await for their international tit

I came across this cute photo of three of the 5 winners of the Bb. Pilipinas 2012 who would be donning the Philippine sash within the next 2 months.

(From Left to Right)

ELAINE KAY MOLL
Bb. Pilipinas 1st Runner Up - Miss Supranational Philippines 2012

Now that the long wait is over on who would be representing the country for Miss Supranational's Finals on September 15, I guess we should just support Elaine, after all, she shouldn't have placed 4th if she doesn't have the IT factor, I hope that she could be the first Miss Supranational of the country.

KATRINA JAYNE DIMARANAN
Bb. Pilipinas Tourism - Miss Tourism Queen International Philippines 2012

Oh yes, the MTQI 2012 pageant is still in China and probably, how Queenierich Rehman would be treated during the Finals Night of Miss World should say how Kat would be treated. MTQI 2012 Finals is on September 28. I hope Kat can exceeed how Isabella placed last year. (Isabella Manjon was the first Bb. Pilipinas delegate in MTQI who was unplaced and took home the Miss Charity).

NICOLE SCHMITZ
Bb. Pilipinas International - Miss International Philippines 2012

Philippines has been doing well in MI for the past 4 years (Fernandez, Gersbach, Kleiner and Necio were all in the Top 15) and had won 4 MI titles (last was Precious Quigaman in 2005). Does Nicole feel the pressure of winning the Philippines 5th MI crown? Gut feel that she doesn't. I am thinking of the crown for her -- to a Runner-Up finish as the worst? Well, let's wait as 2011 Miss International Fernanda Cornejo relinquishes her crown in Okinawa, Japan on October 21.

Goodluck to all the Binibinis. :

Pageant Buzz: Moll for Supranational, Delos Reyes for Supermodel International... More Binibinis joining?

This week has been quite interesting for pageant netizens as there are more Binibinis joining international pageants this year.

First Buzz was ELAINE KAY MOLL, 1st Runner Up during the Bb. Pilipinas 2012 who was expected to represent the country in Miss Supranational 2012 in Sopot, Poland, now that it is official, Elaine may now be in the thick of things preparing things for the September finals.

Elaine is the 2nd representative of the Philippines. Last year, we had Lourenz Grace Remetillo as Ms. Supranational Philippines 2011.

Angelee Claudett Delos Reyes is Supermodel International Philippines bet for this year. After winning Slimmer's World pageant in 2011 and being a SF in Binibining Pilipinas 2012, She's now Philippines bet in an International pageant.

Some Pageant Experts are also saying that John Dela Vega's wards would be sent to Ms. Humanity International (just like Czarina Gatbonton), hoping for the best.
