San Isidro’s Raclaire Stephan Trigo Is Mutya Sa Tagbilaran 2018

It looks like the University of Bohol Senior High is the new breeding ground of the city’s fairest beauty queens.  Both the outgoing and the newly- crowned Mutya sa Tagbilaran winners are proud products of UB High School Department. 
 Raclaire Stephan Trigo is the city's bet for Miss Bohol 2018
Fifteen ladies who won their respective barangays’ preliminary searches vied for the Mutya sa Tagbilaran 2018 crown. After competing in swimsuits, onstage interviews and gowns, the field was trimmed down to the final five. After one final Q & A, the judges made their final decision. 
Newly- crowned Mutya 2018 with Your Roving Eye

Eighteen year old Mutya ng San Isidro Raclaire Stephan Trigo, a perky & vivacious beauty blessed with the most tantalizing eyes, svelte figure, a mellifluous voice and a graceful & elegant stance onstage got the collective nod of the judges and the adoring crowd that roared in approval after she was proclaimed as the Mutya who will now represent the city in the Miss Bohol 2018 Pageant.

Ms. Trigo scooped most of the special titles & awards including Miss Photogenic, Miss Talent, Miss CIGNAL TV and Miss Bohol Tropics. She confirmed her frontrunner status when she topped both the swimsuit & evening gown competitions and led four other finalists into the final round.

Right after her crowning, Raclaire Stephan Trigo shared her thoughts that summed up her Mutya journey “Being a Mutya sa Tagbilaran is more than just having the crown but embracing the responsibility itself. And it is not about on how beautiful you are but it is about having a heart to serve and to be a good example to everyone.”

The bets from Ubujan, Dampas Booy & San Isidro in the Opening Salvo

Cabawan’s bet Cayle Tentativa with Presidential Son Baste Duterte 

Although it was a near- perfect top five, some members of the audience including Your Roving Eye were surprised with the exclusion of #2 Cabawan’s Cayle Tentativa who aside from a flawless presentation, gave one of the most engaging repartees with the emcees during the Q & A where she talked about being a CVRAA Meet athlete.

Another favorite who didn’t make it was Dampas’ Marian Grace Malubay, the licensed criminologist who was very elegant in her evening gown. Other noteworthy candidates were the girls from Dao, Pob. I and Cogon. 

In a contest where judging is subjective and the contestant line-up is competitive, the mixed reactions are to be expected. What’s a pageant after all if everyone agrees on the results.

TAGBILARAN’S FIRST FAMILY: Mayor Baba Yap, First Lady Jane & Janah Yap

The 2018 edition of Mutya sa Tagbilaran marks the fifth year since the glamorous highlight of Tagbilaran City underwent a major facelift. Under the visionary guidance of the city’s First Lady Jane C. Yap and the support of Mayor Baba Yap, the pageant has enjoyed a renewed popularity and has been a certified crowd drawer during the Saulog sa Tagbilaran celebration.

More than a parade of beauty & charm, the Mutya sa Tagbilaran Pageant has been repackaged as an avenue where young Tagbilaranon beauties can be empowered to become partners in community- building and lend their popularity to raise awareness for advocacy projects that would benefit Tagbilaran. As Mutya sa Tagbilaran 2018, Ms. Trigo gets to represent the city in the Miss Bohol 2018 Pageant and will be the spokesperson for the soon- to- be established Tagbilaran City Human Breast Bank.

According to Ms. Jane Yap, Tagbilaran City First Lady & Mutya sa Tagbilaran Project Chair, the Human Breast Bank is a service which collects, screens, processes, and dispenses by prescription human milk donated by nursing mothers who are not biologically related to the recipient infant. The project has the full support of City Mayor Baba Yap.
