Janina San Miguel Was Nervous
Janina San Miguel was a 17 years-old beauty pageant contestant from the Philippines. At first she said she was very confident, but after she had to answer a question she admitted she was really nervous. It may sound funny to some to hear a Filipina speak, but for some reason I think Filipinas have the voices of angels. It’s just my thing. In fact I like how most Asian girls talk. Janina really handled the pressure very gracefully. She’s great.
Janina did win.

I’d like to add that those people who found fault in Janina or the judges are idiots and stupid. One disgusting trait of Filipinos – they find fault in everything without understanding how it came about.
It’s not Janina’s fault, it’s not the judges’ fault. They should change the criteria to prevent this from happening again in the next beauty competitions. For this pageant the criteria were beauty of face and figure 80%, personality 10%, intelligence 10%. She won both the long gown and swimsuit competition and even if she got 0 (Zero) in the Q&A she will still win. With these criteria, even deaf-mute have a chance.
Also initial screening of candidates should be improved.
Again this is not Janina’s fault. She’s just a girl who had a dream and did all she can. She gave it her all. Yes, that was all she could do given the resources she had. Now that she won, lets just support her and hope the organizers will prepare her well for the Miss World competition.
It is not about her english grammar, or being unable to speak (trying hard) english fluently, BUT it is about how she was unable to answer a very simple question.
I feel pity for her. Being young and first timer is not an excuse in such a prestigious beauty pageant (she was supposed to be prepared).
Judges’ decision also ruined the pageant. What a shame to Filipino people around the world.
