With less than two months left before the big night, Maxine Medina is still hard at work in improving herself as she looks to win the Philippines' first back-to-back Miss Universe titles.
In an interview with ABS-CBN News, the beauty queen appeared a little anxious when asked about her thoughts on the confirmation that the country will host the pageant for the third time.
While she did say that she is excited to compete in front of a home crowd, a stammering Medina also admitted that she is still not 100 percent ready for the international contest.
"I've been doing a lot of training," said Medina, who earlier drew some criticism for her winning response during the Q&A portion of this year's Binibining Pilipinas pageant. "I'm always updating myself with current events, and I even discuss it with friends and family. I'll be ready by that time."
She added that she doesn't feel any pressure to follow up on Kylie Verzosa's win in the Miss International pageant, and that the success of others only motivates her more to succeed reigning Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach.
Anu b yn sure n clapper tayu ds year
ReplyDeleteHost country, clapper.
DeleteThen let the runner-up replace you.
Deletebakit nmn di prepared?
DeleteGandang sales lady or promo girl talaga sya. And they should stop making her look like Coco Martin, it's not a compliment.
ReplyDeleteEh ikaw papasa ka ba kahit sa baranggay pageant niyo?
DeleteHahaha
DeleteTama naman si 12:37.
Delete@1250am - Sorry, where I live we don't have "baranggay pageants". :)
DeleteAng kalevel nya sa beauty yung si Perfida Limpin naging Bb. Pilipinas Universe din.
Deleteyou stiLL have time coco! go paLoma!
ReplyDeleteTHEY SHOULD GET AN INTERPRETER FOR HER. HINDI NAMAN MASAMA SAPAGKAT SA BANSA NAMAN NATIN GAGANAPIN ANG SUSUNOD NA BINIBINING PANGKALAWAKAN.
DeleteGrabe talaga mga Pilipino kung makalait. Akala mo ang gaganda nila.
ReplyDeleteHER ENGLISH IS TERRIBLE. MAGANDA ANG ACCENT AND THE WAY SHE PRONOUNCES ENGLISH WORDS PERO IYONG SENTENCE STRUCTURES NIYA VERY POOR. PARANG PANG-MAARTE KOLEHIYALA LANG SIYA.
DeleteWalang chance E2 #fact.
ReplyDeleteGoodluck to you. I hope hindi ka magkalat sa q and a if and when pumasok ka sa magic number
ReplyDeleteKayak lang ng kayak girl hanggang maging ready!!!
ReplyDeleteknows niya na kase na hindi siya magwin sa ms u kaya telling people in advance hindi prepared oh pleaaassseee dont us
ReplyDeletekung malayo man ang chance for back to back , i'd still be proud of her if she'll be a runner up
ReplyDeleteWhy cant we just support her? She'll represent us! Instead of bashing why not just help lift her spirits? Problema sa pinoy masyadong marunong. Eh kayo nga magcompete keri nyo???
ReplyDelete1:22AM, you would understand why most people are also anxious about her winning chance because she can't speak well, can't focus on her answers and worse, she stammers a bit.
DeleteNot to mention that she's not charming and malakas ang appeal. She doesn't stand out.
2:13 I agree! Si Pia kasi malakas ang dating at magaling sumagot. Sabihin man na maraming experience pero my x factor tlg sya at very regal ang ichura esp nung pageant night.
DeleteEh ikaw 12:13? U wouldn't stand a chance , I am 100 % sure!!
DeleteHuy 2:44 walang 12:13 dito naliligaw ka. Lol!!
DeleteKylie trained for months with professors (yung isa is Pinoy na professor sa National University of Singapore). Try din sana ni Maxine para mag-level up ang comprehension and logic nya. Not a Maxine fan but I do hope she does well.
DeletePag di mo kilala si maxine, di mo talaga siya mapapansin. Based on my own experience. Nagulat na lang ako siya yung nanalo. Lol
DeleteI think it's not being "anxious" alone. These people are so getting used to bashing. I dunno why bashing has become a trend these days.
Deletenapanood ko sa cnn nung kelan sabi mo prepared ka na at excited gulo mo teh
ReplyDeleteNaintindihan ko siya, hina pa fully prepare at nakakakaba naman kasi talaga yun isipin niyo ba naman eh, kapapanalo ni Kylie sa Ms.International so ang pressure ayun ang bigat pag hindi nanalo.
ReplyDeleteI dont think may pag asa tayo this year.
ReplyDeleteMGA HIJA! MAGSITIGIL ANG MGA PINTASERA!I AM SURE ALL OF U WOULD NOT STAND A CHANCE KAHIT CLAPPER!!!
ReplyDeleteThe truth hurts ba 246?
DeleteAcht. Why do I feel a hint of loser mentality with her? I mean, fine, not fully ready, but where's the confidence that she'll be the best in the pageant???
ReplyDeleteOh ayan sigeee. Wish pa kayo na matapos na reign ni Pia ha. Para nyo na rin winish na mawala na ang korona sa Pilipinas. Dahil alam naman natin lahat na walang chance ang pambato natin.
ReplyDelete3:21 ang big deal naman na mawala sa Pinas ang korona bes?
DeleteContest yan, malamang mawawala at mawawala kay Pia at may paglilipatan. Ano naman kung mawala sa Pinas? Maglalaho ba ang Pinas sa mapa ng mundo pag nawala sa apinas ang korona?
bakit kasi siya ang pinanalo? wala na bang ibang candidates?
ReplyDeleteAywan nga ba sa mga judges ng BP
Deleteikaw na kaya magjudge?
DeleteIf people are so certain she will not win, why did she win her title?. Was she the best of all possible choices but just doesn't measure up to the Miss U contestants?
ReplyDeletepalpak nga q&a niyan sa bbp.
Deletesablay mga judges thats just it
DeleteStella Araneta's choice
DeleteKayong mga nega, pambato natin yan. Kung wala kayong magandang masabi. Shut up na lang. Support support din sige kayo baka magpasabog yan at kainin niyo sinasabi niyo. Daming ganyan, yung kay Janine nun kesyo mataba and di masyado maganda pero ano nangyari sa mismong pageant? Yung kay Pia kesyo mataba din and half. Shut up na lang muna kayo.

ReplyDeleteSupport lang ako... Go Max, just do your best.
ReplyDeleteWaley wag na tayong umasa masasaktan lang tayo. Bwahahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteMay umaasa ba? Parang wala nama talaga hahahaha
DeleteBka naman may pasabog to sa miss mung pageant.
ReplyDelete"Admits to not yet being fully prepared", jusko. You need some editors and proofreaders.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with many Filipinos is crab mentality. So many pageant and political experts. As if you are miss universe or president material.
ReplyDeleteLet us just pray for her that she will do well.
Let us pray for our country and government too.
Let us help construct and unite.
Not destroy and divide.
Thank you.
Amen to this!
DeleteTrue. Pero mas kelangan ipag pray ang country baks. Kebs ako sa ms. U.
DeleteBusy kasi napaaga yung showing ng movie nila ni vice.
ReplyDeleteShe doesn't seem to have the same drive and desire to fight for the crown unlike previous representatives like Pia & Janine for example.
ReplyDeleteHer placement will probably be the same as the one who wore the wedding gown, forgot her name.
Paktay na...lagot waley tyo sa jan 30
ReplyDeleteEto ang walang confidence
ReplyDeleteEwan ko ba bakit ba nanalo itong walang brain na Ito?pag q&a na nga LNG parang NASA alapaap ang isip pag Sumagot.
ReplyDeletena-ADMIT and na-PREPARE ko na sarili ko... luhaan this year
ReplyDeleteand pwede ba, hindi lang q and a problem nya. walang dating and di striking and regal hichura nya.
pero sige para pampalubagbloob, papasok sya sa mga top... para sa abala at gastos natin as host... pero wala naman kakaba kaba, parang kay pacquiao, di nakaka nerbiyos ang bakbakan, ang nakaka takot eh pag interview na after fight... ganun din kay maxene, pag umabot ng q and a... lagot na...
CRINGE to the MAXene!
Keri lang bes, for sure naman ligwak ka eh. Clapper ka lang this year.
ReplyDeletemaganda sya sa thumbnail ..
ReplyDeletePara nga nman may basehan pag natalo sya.. hindi kc sya prepared kuno.. kayo nman!
ReplyDeleteHer win was an obvious favoritism, she did not do well in the Q&A portion, di bale sna if sha un pnka-stand out pagdating sa looks, kaso marami pa mas mgnda sa knya during the pageant. I dont think she'll ever be ready for Ms. Universe
ReplyDeletemy god puro nega mga comment. mga pinoy tlga ang lalakas ng loob manglait at mangbash dhl hnd kita mga mukha nyo na kahit cguro singit ni maxine walang wala kayo at sa Q and A ang problema nyo? juicekolord hnd po madali magsalita sa harap ng maraming tao lalo na sa mga kapwa pinoy na feeling perfect! kaya nga may training na tinatawag. baka pwd ilugar nyo muna yang mga panglalait nyo. hnd pa kayo natuto from venus hanggang kay pia na puro kayo lait nganga nmn kayo nung nagka place na.
