Miss Earth Trivia On its first Year

Postby fermnedoza » Wed Mar 06, 2019 2:02 am

    

DO YOU KNOW

- that the Miss Earth and Miss Philippines (the progenitor of Miss Philippines Earth/Miss Earth Philippines) had their
formal Press launching on April 03, 2001?

- that the birth of Miss Earth was triggered by a "letter" sent to Carousel Production by a concerned citizen " who suggested that beauty contests (then Mutya ng Pilipinas and Miss Asia Pacific Quest [now MAP International], as handled by Carousel) be converted into cause-oriented projects with "environmental consciousness to save Planet Earth." But since the Carousel’s contract with Mutya-MAPQ wasn’t renewed that year the group decided to launch their own pageant and named it Miss Earth?

- That during the first years of Miss Earth, the following individuals ran the contest: Ramon Monzon (president), with his wife, Lorraine Schuck (herself a Mutya titleholder in 1979), as vice-president. Other officers are Joji Felix Velarde (also vice-president), 1977 Mutya-World Peachy Veneracion (project coordinator), Sofia Velasco (events manager), 1999 Mutya and Queen of the Year Raquel Uy (Peachy’s assistant), 1998 Mutya Rochelle Ong (Sofia’s assistant) and 1999 Mutya Ritchie Ocampo (Lorraine’s assistant)?

- That on its first year, the winner of Miss Earth received US$20, 000.00 on top of other cash and material incentives? That amount has long increased making the Miss Earth winner one of the three highest paid title holders om pageantry.

The announcement of Miss Earth launching the following year actually happened during the coronation night of Miss Asia Pacific 2000, where Diya Mirza Handrich of India won (I remember coz I watched that pageant on TV ahihihi). The host said that the following year, the pageant would become bigger and it would be named MISS EARTH.

And the first edition of MPE was actually called MISS PHILIPPINES (only) then they added EARTH in it.

My bets were Margarita Kravtsova of Kazakhstan (Top 5 in Miss World 2000) and Evelyn Mikomagi of Estonia (Top 10 in Miss Universe 2000). But the most popular girls (hyped) even before they set foot in the Philippines were Miss India Shamita Singha and Miss Argentina Daniela Stucan.

Medyo chaka yung stage nila nung 2001 ahahaha! Naalala ko pa, estudiyante blues hahaha!



I think, ME was also the first pageant KOSOVO participated. If I’m not mistaken there was already a Miss Kosovo in Miss Earth in 2003.

GMA 7 acquired the contract to run the Mutya ng Pilipinas and Miss Asia Pacific Quest after year 2000 and we all knew what happened to Miss Asia Pacific pageant under GMA 7. Hopefully, the same fate never happen to Miss Earth.

Hopefully not since last year's Miss Earth was one of the most well-staged and directed I have seen so far in its 18 year history.
