The ir-RAJ-tional answer

After the major, major upset that downsized the Filipinos morale, we found a shed of light in the hope that our Miss Philippines might grab the Miss Universe tilt. It was an intense moment. Venus Raj, the Philippines’ representative for the pageant was regarded as the crowd favorite and even got the top votes online.

She strut her stuff at the Mandalay Bay. Venus got the numbers for the swimsuit and evening gown competition. The whole 7, 107 islands of the country were excited if she will take home the crown up until she reached the coveted 5th place of the Top 5.

And the story ends there. She made it to the Top 5.


Seriously, I am still so proud of her. For the longest time, we have never seen a Filipina reach that far, considering the fact that she has almost lost her chance to join this pageant due to her citizenship queries. It could have been a better day, but it just turned out to be good. And good is not bad at all.

Heads up, Philippines!
