This years Bb. Pilipinas was a bit of funny, trending on twitter and facebook and it was a bit party-ish. The pageant was hosted by Xian Lim (very well), Ms. Iza Calzado, Bb. Pilipinas 2010, Venus Raj and the ever beautiful Georgina Wilson. During the swimsuit competition, DJ David Callum made the pageant stage party like. The candidates on the other hand were serenaded by Ariel Pineda and Bamboo.However everybody was awed by Former Representative Risa Hontiveros Baraquel question when she noted; "you can answer the question either in Filipino or in English, whatever you are comfortable with".

Bb. Pilipinas International Nicole Schmitz. She also won Best in Swimsuit and Best in National costume. Let us all hope that this Fil-German stunner gives us the Ms. International title this year.
Bb. Pilipinas Tourism, which they say will represent the country for its tourism advocacies is Katrina Jayne Dimaranan, she also won the the Ms. Talent awards. Last year the Ms. Tourism winner snatched the representation from Mutya ng Pilipinas in Ms. Tourism Queen International. This year it will all depend on Madame Araneta's decisions. Whatever will be that decision let us hope for her to win.
This is the year for a Pharmacy cum laude graduate of the University of Sto. Tomas. The running runner up bags the title this year as Bb. Pilipinas Universe. Let us all support her and help her in bringing home the crown in the upcoming Ms. Universe 2012 which will happen on December.
To wrap it up, it was another success for the BPCI, however the journey of the winners are just starting. Goodluck on your international pageants, represent the country well.
