Here's my take. Before that, disclaimer first.
1. Yes I am Filipino
2. Maybe I'm not just classy enough?
Anyway here it goes. I hate to say this but I think Ms Earth's coronation night was better than that of Miss World's.
I dunno, I just don't get the format.
(And the stage? It's looked like a stage for graduation rites or something. Too bland.)
Specially after the announcement of top 10. It's like, okay back to zero then without any
sort of competition, top 5.
I understand that they are looking for star quality blah, blah, blah. If that was the case,
why telecast it. If it's going to be just like a casting call wherein you choose a girl with
the right "feel", "aura", or "x-factor", don't have a live pageant anymore. Do it indoors.
Eventhough Megan won last year, my joy wasn't complete because there are
not much stage moments to relive.
From the year 1999 onwards, the show has just been slightly more interesting
than watching paint dry.
