Filipino-American beauty Leslie Ann Pine, who is representing San Leonardo, Nueva Ecija, suddenly collapsed shortly after the competition's special awards ceremony just before midnight.
Fellow contestant Pircelyn Pialago, a close friend of Pine, told ABS-CBN News the the latter had been "depriving herself" of food after supposedly being put on "weight watch" leading up to the finals night on May 11.
"She passed away [sic] kasi she was really hungry," Pialago said. "Since this morning, I kept on inviting her to eat breakfast but she doesn't want to eat, kasi we're under weight watch. There are like six girls who are under weight watch, for big tummies and stuff. We're not really allowed to eat much, so she's really depriving herself."
Pine was rushed to a hospital in Ortigas where she was diagnosed to have had "electrolytes imbalance." She was discharged from the hospital on Thursday morning.
Another contestant, according to Pialago, suffered from cramps during the bikini competition as she had been dehydrated. "It really happens," she said. "Before the bikini wear, we don't usually drink to have this fit body."
Asked what she learned from her fellow contestant's experience, Pialago answered: "It's really hard... Kasi kailangan talagang pumayat. Iyon 'yung demand from the pageant. We really need to lose weight, kasi that's our market."
"It's not their fault naman if you are joining. Lesson learned -- siguro let's not deprive ourselves, kasi nag-serve naman nang maayos 'yung body natin sa atin. Just be sexy naturally, in and out. Beauty is not about your figure itself. It's Miss Earth, it's about your advocacy and everything that you will say."
The coronation night of Miss Philippines Earth will be held at the Mall of Asia Arena, and will be telecast on ABS-CBN.
Passed out not passed away! I hate beauty contests! Ang utak kase di nareretoke!
ReplyDeleteHahaha akala ko namatay kasi sinabing passed away. LOL
DeletePassed away, namatay?
Delete:D
Dami kong tawa talaga dun sa passed away. Ahahaha.
ReplyDeleteyeah kami din, sobra tawa namin, na-rattle siguro si ateng sa ngyari kaya kahit buhay naman, pinatay na lol!!!!!
DeleteI'd rather have a little paunch kesa mag "pass away" like her. Condolence sa grammar ni Pialago.
ReplyDeletePinatay na agad...lol fainted na lang kasi
ReplyDeleteMga 21 yung tawa ko sa passed away. Haha. Pero mga ateng don't deprive yourselves sa pagkain. I know someone na nagwa-water or liquids lang then pag feeling nya mahihimatay na siya kumakain lang sya ng cheese. Wag ganun!
ReplyDeleteTinegibels agad. Beaucon moments are rich with booboos
ReplyDeleteNaloka ako sa passed away. Patay agad?
ReplyDeleteKatakot ang passed away ni ate. Pero nataranta lang namab siya. Passed out ate ha? Bawi ka next time.
ReplyDeleteThe essence of beauty! - charot
ReplyDeletePassed away talaga? Di ba puwedeng passed out muna? kalokaaaaa!!! LOL
ReplyDeletebaka naman "she's PASA-WAY..." ang ibig sabihin ni ate. slang lang talaga sya. hmp!
ReplyDeleteKaya siguro medyo bobo sagot ng ibang mga beauty pageant contestants sa question and answer portion is because tom Jones na sila. Uhaw na uhaw pa. Or am I just deluding myself?
ReplyDeleteMay TAMA KA!!!!
DeleteAanhin ang beauty kung ang brains ay EMPTY!
ReplyDeleteBAKLANG WITTY
Or aanhin ang beauty kung walang laman ang tummy!
Deletebrains???!!!!....kaloka talaga! Baklang witty pa daw..lol
DeleteIkaw na!!! Ang baklang English teacher!!!
DeleteIkaw na teh! Ikaw na....... ang BAKLANG ENGLISH TEACHER!!!!
Deletebalanse talaga magbigay ng biyaya si Lord...
ReplyDeletedi naman siguro magagalit si mother earth pag majubis ka at di naman paseksihan para masave ang earth, its ur advocacy to save mother earth ang importante.. tsaka si stephanie stefanowitz nga ang jubis e naging title holder pa sya
ReplyDeleteNakaka bothered ang pass away ha. Dapat kc natural beauty sinasali jan or dapat gumawa na lng ng isang category para sa mga jubis na pang beauty queen ang ganda anu
ReplyDeleteNaman, Pialago! Passed away??!??? Eat bananas (laman tiyan) and lots of peanuts (laman utak)!
ReplyDeleteYan ang mahirap sa beauty contest. Kelangan mag maintain ng katawan, kelangan no fats. Mas masarap kumain kaysa magpakagutom.
ReplyDeleteCalling organizers to hire a good nutritionist to monitor what the girls are eating. (If they're eating at all). There's nothing elegant about fainting and confusing passes out and passed away.
ReplyDeleteShe passed away? Or she fell asleep instantly? Joke lng ha, baka seryosohin ng mga grabe kng mkacorrect ng gramnar...
ReplyDeleteCorrect! Andaming English Teacher dito!
Deletecongrats to JAMIE HERRELL AND CRYSTAL STAR ABERASTURI
ReplyDeleteParang Yung "we would like to acknowledge the arrival of the LATE mayor hahaha
ReplyDelete"Patay agad??" -Chichay
ReplyDeletehahahaha
pinatay na niya kasama niya sa competition ha? ahahha. daming tawa rito.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what the news really is - one contestant passing out or the other having a bad case of grammar?
ReplyDeleteAkala ko namatay kasi passed away daw
ReplyDeleteNatuyot na yung utak dahil di kumakain...
ReplyDeleteNamatay ? LOL but the serious aspect of this scoop is that unhealthy eating habits that this Beauty pageant promotes. Kalurkey I'm sure there's more to this binge eating , bulimia at anorexia kakaloka
ReplyDeletesana mas mag focus tau sa fact na di kumakain mga contestant
