Are you also one of those who can't get over the winsome answers of the new queens of Bb. Pilipinas 2022?
Before they took home their crowns, the queens went through an intense Question & Answer, the highlight of the said event.
Each candidate has 30 seconds to answer questions from the judges present at the venue and in pre-recorded videos.
The questions were more on socially relevant topics such as current events, womanhood, fake news, and the importance of Philippine History.
Let's go back to the winning answers of the reigning queens.
BB. PILIPINAS INTERNATIONAL NICOLE BORROMEO (CEBU)
Donny Pangilinan: The question is on a scale of 1-10, how would you rate yourself as a responsible Filipino citizen and why?
NICOLE BORROMEO Nicole Borromeo’ Answer: “As a responsible Filipino citizen, I’d like to give myself a good 8, because I always know there’s room to improve. There’s so much I don’t know. But there’s so much I’m willing to learn. And I hope to do that with you.”
BB. PILIPINAS GRAND INTERNATIONAL ROBERTA ANGELA TAMONDON (SAN PABLO, LAGUNA)
Judge Hon. Alfredo Pascual: Nowadays, we often hear the word ‘essentials.’ At this point in your life, what are the missing essentials and why do you say so?
Roberta Tamondong’s Answer: I think one of the missing essentials nowadays, especially you came from Generation Z—ay—Generation X, is maybe old telephones. Because the reason why—I remember my dad and I going to a vintage shop and buying a vintage telephone and with that, I can really see the importance of our history and what we came from in the past. Thank you.
BB. PILIPINAS INTERCONTINENTAL GABRIELLE BASIANO (EASTERN SAMAR)
Sen. Risa Hontiveros: Pageants are a celebration of beauty and goodwill. However, there’s also a lot of toxicity online and offline that fails to empower us, women. If you win as our Binibini, how will you deal with fake news and other negative comments criticizing your looks, intelligence, and the way you live your life?
Gabrielle Basiano's Answer: Good evening, everyone. I have been receiving a lot of opinions from other people and I am not complaining about it because people are entitled of their own opinion. As for me, I will always remind women that we are strong, independent, and courageous because these are the traits that are very critical to the complicated roles that us women play into society. Thank you.
BB. PILIPINAS GLOBE CHELSEA FERNANDEZ (TACLOBAN CITY)
Judge Rico Hizon: A previous quiz segment in a reality competition revealed that many of our young kababayans, young Filipinos are not anymore aware and familiar with our own national heroes. For you, how important is it to look back at our history and learn more about the personalities about our past in order to build a better future?
Chelsea Fernandez's Answer: Thank you. I believe that it is really important and we should not disregard our history because why? It is part of our culture, it is part of our past, it is part of who we are today as a Filipinos (sic).
BB. PILIPINAS 1ST RUNNER-UP HARLENE BUDOL (ANGONO, RIZAL)
Judge Cecilio Asuncion: A beauty pageant is a space for transformation. What has been your biggest character transformation since you joined and how could this make you deserving of a crown tonight?
(Translates question to Tagalog)
(Ang beauty pageant ay isang lugar para sa transpormasyon. Anong transpormasyon na importante ang nangyari sa ’yo habang nandito ka sa Binibining Pilipinas?)
Herlene Budol’s Answer: Maraming salamat po. Para sa akin, isang karangalan na nakatungtong ako dito sa Binibining Pilipinas bilang isang binibining hindi inaasahan. Para sa akin, ang sarap palang mangarap. Ang sarap mangarap. Walang imposible. Isa po akong komedyante na laki sa hirap. At ang aking transpormasyon ay ang magbigay ng inspirasyon because I know... because I know for myself that I am beautiful... because I know for myself that I am uniquely beautiful with a mission.
BB. PILIPINAS 2ND RUNNER-UP SATCEY DANIELLA GABRIEL (CAINTA RIZAL)
Judge Joshua Garcia: Personally, how do you distinguish a historian from a Marites?
Stacey Gabriel’s Answer: A historian is one who recognizes our painful past with factual evidence, looking back at our rich, vibrant history, and as well as the time that our humanity is trampled on and our heritage is almost erased. If you look at our past, we can surely move onward and upward, and rebuild... rise from this pandemic, and dream for a safer, healthier, and happier Philippines.
Are you satisfied with the answers of our Bb. Pilipinas ladies?
