Miss Spain is Miss International 2008

By theunworthybeliever

It is a big weekend for devout pageant fans this week as two grand slam pageants go back-to-back: Miss International on November 8th, and Miss Earth, November 9th.

The first half had actually just been concluded when Alejandra Andreu, a 17 -year-old stunner, from Zaragoza, Spain won the Miss International 2008 title a few hours ago in Macao.

Below is the complete list of winners:

WINNER: SPAIN, Alejandra Andreu
1st Runner Up: COLOMBIA, Maria Cristina Diaz Granados
2nd Runner Up: POLAND, Anna Tarnowska
3rd Runner Up: CHINA, Chang Wen Liu
4th Runner Up: CZECH REPUBLIC, Zuzana Putnarova

Semi-finalists:
ECUADOR
JAPAN
LEBANON
PHILIPPINES
PUERTO RICO
TURKEY
VENEZUELA

SPECIAL AWARDS:
MISS PHOTOGENIC: Spain
BEST NATIONAL COSTUME: Aruba
MISS NATURAL BEAUTY: Belarus
MISS FRIENDSHIP: El Salvador

Binibining Pilipinas-International 2008 Patricia Fernandez made it as a semi-finalist. The last time the Philippines made it to the semis was in 2005, when Precious Lara Quigaman also won Miss International.


Incidentally, Spain's entry for Miss Earth 2008, Adriana Reverón, is also perceived as a top favorite for the crown. Even their bet for Miss World 2008 this December is foreseen as a major contender by bookmakers and pageant pundits. Will Spain be country of the year for 2008? Let's wait and see.

We wish Miss Philippines-Earth 2008 Karla Paula Henry the best of luck tomorrow as Miss Earth draws to its grand finale.

And again to Patricia, Kudos and Mabuhay!

Duterte [et al] lang may malasakit! I think alam na natin lahat ang sagot dito, maliban sa mga kulto ng DDS.  Trip ni Sara to Germany sa gitna ng Typhoon Carina Yung Pharmally scandal ni Michael Yang at Duterte, kumita pa habang may pandemya Drug war - walang nahuling big time, pumatay lang ng small-time pusher, at obvious na di long term solution kasi gagana lang "pag nakaupo" sila From Nutribun Republic - Bukod sa Malasakit Center, anong batas na matino na isang DDS senator ang nanguna na i-akda at ipasa? Wala. Ganyan sila kabasura. Voters and local officials should reject DDS candidates this 2025. Wala na ngang ambag, mga bobo pa. Naclear na ng COA ang isyu ng confidential funds From Rappler - The claim was made by political blogger EB Jugalbot on December 3. As of writing, the post has 1,500 interactions, 104 comments, and 152 shares. The post reads: “COA just gave the OVP an ‘Unmodified Opinion’ for FY 2023.

I've decided to wake this blog up because of the current political landscape of the Philippines and the proliferation of disinformation skewing people's views. I vow to publish articles that are as truthful (and verifiable) as possible.

Pacquiao Owes $130K to WBC

The People's Champ - Manny "Pac-man" Pacquiao is scheduled to fight Oscar De La Hoya who is 4" taller than him on December 6 and we all just can't wait: nor does the World Boxing Council for that matter as it says that Manny still has unpaid dues amounting to $130,000. Pacquiao's camp said that they are apologetic that they have not kept in touch with the WBC as early as they could but promised to settle the said amount asap. Patriotism aside, the U.S. is having a bailout plan, Pacquiao is settling $100K++, and $100 million is going to the winner of this fight? Talk about allocation. Just tax Vegas and I'm sure it will alleviate the situation.
