She might not be the prettiest nor the
tallest in the batch but inarguably, she was the most engaging and had the most
refreshing way of expressing herself during the Onstage Interviews. She was very candid and very honest about herself and her family background.
Here in Bohol, pageant winners are often crowned on the sheer strength of their answers. Of course, this is not to say that Queenie is not beautiful. Hers is the type of beauty that grows the longer you stare at her plus she has this sun- kissed complexion that is to die for
HOW DOES SHE FEEL BEING COMPARED WITH VENUS RAJ?
When asked how she feels being compared
with Venus Raj, she readily replied that it flatters her to be compared to one
of the Philippines’ most iconic beauty queens but on the other hand, she feels
that it somehow makes her lose her self- identity and frustrates her that she
has to live under the shadows of one who is very popular.
She insisted that she
wants to be known simply as Queenie and not to be the clone or lookalike of
someone else
WHO IS MORE IMPORTANT? THE FATHER OR THE MOTHER?
When asked who is more important in her
family, her mother or her father, she replied that both the father and mother
are equally important for they play complementary roles. The mother is the
symbol of love and of sharing. A father on the other hand, is the symbol for
strength and stability.
But if she is to choose only one, she would choose her
mother. She explained that she has never seen her father for she was born an
illegitimate child. But even then, she would always have the highest regard for
her mom who was able to raise her up to be who and what she is right now
despite being a single mom
Her answers struck a chord in the hearts
of those who were in the audience that night. She had the audience and the
judges to her side even before we wrapped up the Onstage Interviews.
A beauty queen is not chosen for her
physical assets alone. She has to be witty, to possess the sense of
responsibility and sensitivity and lastly, she has to have that ability to
connect with people. Queenie has all of those and she deserves to be crowned
