  1. Aliaza’s white terno is such a breath of fresh air. So divine and perfect!

  2. I love Apriel Smith's overall look. Ganda ng terno. Lalo pang maganda ang contrast sa skin niya.

    Michelle Gumabao looks like a plus size woman. It's not a bad thing but she really stood out bec of her size.

    Miss Bohol's gown looks so stiff.

    1. Ms ilo ilo looks like a princess

    2. Agree with Apriel Smith. She looks like a chocolate skinned Barbie. Bumagay yung gown sa skin tone

    3. Agree with your observation re Michelle Gumabao, plus she looks like Ciara Sotto there.

    4. Michele only made it because of her fans. Wala naman talaga siyang dating

    5. Apriel Smith for me too! Ganda ng color ng skin! Pantay na pantay tapos shiny. Kung ganyan skin color at body ko araw araw akong naka bikini hehe

    6. Sayang si apriel. I like her too. Sana di nya masyado binakla. Pero galing nya lumakad.

    1. For me, either Miss Paranaque or Miss Ilo-ilo will make a great representative. They're beauty are both stand out and they are articulate.

    2. Si mg kasi... mga pormahan nya pang matrona na. Kulang ang speech para manalo.

  4. Galing ng styling kay Miss Davao

  5. Paranaque looks effortlessly sosyal!
    Mamahalin tingnan.
    Supermodel ang dating ni Alaiza in that gold gown.

    1. Eh anak mayaman naman talaga. Mother niya anak ni Marita Zobel (artista), Father niya kamag anak ng mga prominenteng old rich na mga Ysmael.

    2. Alaiza is in white. Baka you mean louis? Agree ako, very queenly si louis! She was my bet talaga, prepageant pa lang may dating na.

  6. I love Iloilo but the cape should go. It looks outdated tbh.

    1. Same here, mas maganda yung red gown without the cape i think

  7. The MUP Organization should have seen the winners of other countries. I am so sure na hibdi papasok si Rabiya sa top 20, nothing spectacular about her, very pageant patty, even magsalita. I think nagkamali sila for not choosing Bella Ysmael. The strength of Bella Ysmael are her extremely beautiful face na kakalibre ni Olivia Culpo (2012) and Demi Ligh Nel-Peters (2017) na khit maliit, yung beauty ng face ang nagdala AND her poise, class, exquisite charisma and ang super alta ng dating, no one could top that. Test of her super alta appeal: sa Miss Thailand, sa swimsuit, may nagoa ikot ukot dun pero ang cheap. Pero bakit nung si Bella amg umikot ikot, ang soshal. I don't know, mahihina yung nasa panel of judges, walang eye for alta and exquisite level ng beauty.

    1. yan tayo e. you lean towards someone kasi Alta, mayaman.
      face value alone, lamang si rabiya. if pageant patty for you ang sagot ni rabiya, ganun din naman si bella. you're just more forgiving sa kanya kasi nga alta altahan.

      Delete
    2. Agree with Bella. Parang everything na gawin nya ang sosyal. Yun yung mahirap i-achieve kapag wala ka talaga. She is the epitome of elegance among all the beauty queens in MUP2020

      Delete
    3. 11:28, I AGREE 101+% NA MAS MAY LABAN AT DESERVING MAGING MISS U SI YSABELLA. MAS MAGANDA, MAS MATANGKAD, MAS MAPUTI, AT MAS MAGALIING RUMAMPA, AT MAS CONFIDENT UM-ENGLISH. MY SECOND CHOICE IS MISS CAVITE. MAS BAGAY NA MAGING MISS UNIV INDIA SI RABIYA DAHIL SA BEAUTY AT SKIN COLOR NYA.

      Delete
    4. Ms. Parañaque is 5’7” maliit na ba yun for MU standards? Diba si Pia, ganon din ang height?

      Delete
    5. Agree super stunning sya,effortless, fierce, confident and magaling sumagot, I dunno why di nakita ng mga judges. I hope sasali sya ulit.

      Delete
    6. I agree regarding Bella Ysmael, she’s so classy! I thought she would win.

    7. Sayang di kayo judge. Support nyo nlng winner.

    8. 12:28 di naman Ms Alta yung pageant eh at di naman criteria yung pagiging alta for winning.

      Delete
    9. I agree with you!!! Sobrang natural na lang talaga sa kanya yung pagka sosyal kaya hindi annoying tignan haha super love Bella!!! As you can see close din siya sa other candidates so kahit siya lang ang sosyalera dun eh marunong pa rin makibagay

      Delete
    10. Ay sorry, hindi sya kagandahan. Anong demi leigh? Mahiya naman oy. Kaganda ganda ni Demi. Jusko! Ang layooooo ng beauty nila. Kamukha nya si kylie Padilla!

    11. I agree with the two of you. Bella is the winner for me. Me off sa ngipin ni Rabiya pag nagsasalita siya.

    14. 9:14 yung totoo? Nagcomment ka pa talaga sa ipin ni Rabiya eh hindi mo man lang napansin ang oversized veneers ni Bella, the hypocrisy ahahah

    15. 3:32 magkaheight lang si Bella at Rabiya. MAS MAPUTI? eh ano kung mas maputi?! Di naman batayan ng kagandahan kung sino mas maputi, huling huli ka na sa balita ano ba

    16. Too bad tapos na ang pageant. No matter what you say social climbers, Rabiya is MUP 2020. Suck it up!

      Delete
    17. 9:14 hahahaha off din sa ngipin ni Bella na pa Soneyo na. Ang pangit ng veneers nya. Sobrang laki kaya mas disturbing. Kayong mga social climbers and alam nyo lang puro pa alta. Hindi nanalo manok nyo kasj sumemplang sa q n a. Sa sobrang gustong pahabain pa ang sagot nagkalat tuloy. Duh.

    1. I 100% agree. Sinong nanalong best in long gown? I also think ms cavite deserves it

  9. Alaiza's preliminary gown I thought is not a pageant gown. It's more like a red carpet gown. Ganun rin sa Finals gown nya.

  10. Type ko lahat, except yung gown #8. Just saying

    ReplyDelete
  11. Number 1 ko din yung prelims gown ni Parañaque

    ReplyDelete
  12. I agree with #s 1-3. But i think ms cavite's gown look waaay better than ms quezon's. I wouldn't even put ms QC on my top 10.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Ganda talaga nina paranaque, davao, and cavite!!! Stunning!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Parang napakacheap ng dating ni Alaisa Malinao During the prelim. But her finals looks gorgeous. Michelle Gumabao looks older than the rest of the candidates. Parang out of place.

    1. Napaghahalatang wala kang alam sa fashion hahahaha yung liquid gold dress lang naman nya ay very Versace duh

    3. 7:52 ikaw lang nagsabi nyan, palibhasa ikaw ang cheap wala kang alam. Tignan mo lahat ng fashion at pageant pages na nafeature siya lahat sila sinasabi na she looks expensive! Masyadong halatang wala kang alam gosh ang cheap mo!

      Delete
    4. OK 7:13 AM ganun pala ang tingin mo sa Versace. Try mo manood paminsan minsan ng runway shows, hindi puro singing contests lang as your point of fashion reference.

      Delete
    5. 3:12 mukhang ikaw mahilig sa singing contest dahil un lang alam mong sabihin. I was referring to the golden gowns designed by Donatella Versace para sa 2017 Milan Fashion Week na nirampa lang naman ng legendary supermodels na sila Carla Bruni, Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Helena Christensen. Ayan napaghalata nanaman na ikaw ang walang alam. Ang cheap mo ha.

      Delete
    6. My sincerest apologies 8:26 AM. Stupid typo. The singing contest comment was aimed at 7:52 PM. At least I am honest and humble enough to admit my mistake. Oh "cheap" pala ako. Let me show you my Vogue Paris (not America) subscriptions since 2015 as a sign of peace offering. Because I heart Emmanuelle Alt na close friend ni Carla Bruni na former First Lady of France. Ang dami kong alam no?

  15. Bet ko si Alaiza!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Hubby and I thought that Alaiza should have gotten the crown. She is queenly. Her stance reminded us of Ms Margie Moran. Next bet namin is Ms Cavite. Iba rin ang dating. Daring and courageous of her to admit her sexuality. She would have made a difference in the Ms Universe. The world is ready for a beauty queen like her. Maybe May nakitang potential si Gaffud kay Rabiya. Her beauty though is not as stunning as Catriona and Pia. Among a line up of the world’s Ms Universe candidates she might not stand out until she speaks. Articulate sya. She needs to polish her speaking voice though and the angles of posing for the camera. Pwede pa mahasa under a rigorous training from Gaffud.

  21. Sobrang natuwa ako sa mga girls na naggown na walang slit. For me mas classy ang ganun gowns. After Cat lahat na lang may slit. Honestly yung lava gown nun maganda naman, hindi lang ako natuwa sa slit na kita na yung underwear sa loob. Sana bumalik na sa wlaang slit ang trend.

    ReplyDelete
  22. That gold gown is beautiful ❤️
    I can picture Naomi Campbell or Heidi Klum wearing it.
    My only critique is gusot ang inner fabric, sana nasteam para walang wrinkles.

    ReplyDelete
  23. My personal opinion, there are other girls more deserving than Rabiya. At first, I find her really pretty, but when I saw her IG, seems like there's really a reason why the other candidates were questioning the HMUA issue. Sobrang layo ng hitsura nya nung Finals night and from her recent pics sa IG. 2nd, she answered just ok sa q&a. She was confident at that time but when we watched the prelims q&as and her interviews, I think there are other candidates who are more articulate than her. Parang if di mapractice yung questions, mahihirapan na sya sumagot.

    1. Kaya nya yan,narelax na kc sya, when competition time comes for ms.universe palaban yan.
      Magaganda nmn pic nya sa ig.

      No perfect beauty nman in our past Phil. winners sa Ms. Universe lahat nman not perfect beauty pero they exudes the aura of Ms. Universe.

      Ms.Gloria is not perfect pero confident at regal looking,iba yong ganda nya.talino talaga nagdala ng husto kay Ms.Glo.

      Ms.Margie very queenly,tall,regal looking,
      matalino sya like ms. Glo,hindi aral yong sagot,up to now dala pa rin nya Ms.Universe aura.
      Gusto q yong voice nya noong pageant.

      Si Pia is destined to be Ms.Universe,not regal looking but now kering keri na nya.magaling din yong walk nya.more on pinay beauty yong aura.
      Makikita kay Pia yong determination and patience at quiet sya,hindi mareklamo.
      she knows how to accept defeat and tried again.
      God is good she got what she yearned for.

      Ms. Cat got the audience w her gown and walk,matalino rin,tall, pero i think her beauty is common.

    2. Mas mataas pa pala standards mo kesa kina Venus Raj and Janine Tugonon. Patingin nga mukha mo.

      Delete
    3. Bakit kailangan mo makita mukha ko? Kapag irereprsent ba ng bansa natin for a pageant, di na bawal mataas standard? I am just saying na mas may ibang deserving. If you read the comments, even the others have their own bets and they also believe na may mas maganda at magaling pa. So not reply to comments with personal attacks. Chill ka lang.

  25. Generic at gasgas ang mga sagot ni Parañaque, elegante syang tingnan pero nung nagsalita na parang walang lalim. Yun ang rason kaya di sya nanalo. Si Rabiya naman andun yung hunger at conviction sa kilos at salita nya, siguro dahil na din sa mga pinagdaanan nya sa buhay. She is raw and smart but she needs to practice how to exude elegance and grace. Michelle Gumabao didnt look her real self on stage. Parang more on projection ginagawa nya. Yung sagot nya about the bible didnt come across as sincere, parang lumabas lang sa ilong nya.

    1. Thats because she says whats on her mind in that moment hindi yung pinraktis na paulit ulit sa harap ng salamin

    2. It is because her question was how will you explain to a child what is a beauty queen, syempre simpleng sagot lang kelangan

      Delete
    3. Pinilit nya pa kasi pahabain yung sagot nya kaya nagkalat. Nawalan tuloy ng impact. Kulang din xa sa charm kahit maganda at elegante xa. Prang walang interesting sa kanya. Hindi pag uusapan ng fans world wide.

      Delete
    4. 8:05 ha? Sigurado kang generic kay Parañaque? Mas generic at pageant patty nga sagot ni Ilo Ilo eh. Nadaan lang sa Miriam Defensor ang sagot kaya nanalo. Pero kung tutuusin, mas rehearsed pakinggan sumagot yung nanalo.

      5:02 kung charm lang din naman ang paguusapan, mas walang kacharm-charm si Rabiya. Ang lamya2 niya sa stage. Nanalo lang kasi 3 judges ba naman pabor na pabor sa kanya eh! Maganda siya oo, pero charm? Mas lamang si Parañaque.

    4. Dear 10:52 AM, Bella has Caucasian and Arab blood. To expound further 1:21 PM's research:

      Bella's grandmother Marita Zobel (real name Mary Ann Blanch i Respall) is an Ilongga with Spanish blood.

      Her aunt Margie Moran's grandmother is a McIlvain - Spanish mixed with American and an ancestry of West African blood.

      On Bella's Ysmael side - The Ysmaels came from a line of Lebanese immigrants who had settled in the Philippines. The family matriarch was Doña Magdalena Hashim Ysmael-Hemady who made her fortune buying up land. Doña Hemady Street in Quezon City was named in her honor.

  29. Rabiya is pang Ms.Universe talaga.
    Magaling magdala ng gown si ysmael even alysa, pero Ms. Universe aura talaga si rabiya.
    Ang gaganda ng gown ng mga kandidata ngayon sayang at may pandemic,tapos magaganda rin contestants pang beauty contest talaga.

    Sana wala ng intrigue,michelle and sandra should move on coz if theyre meant to be Ms. Universe sana stand out na sila noon pa.
    Dko na makilala si michelle pero strong mukha ngayon compared noon,athletic build sya.
    Sandra strong din yong beauty nya.

    Kaya buti nakita ngayon yong difference ng beauties nila.

    1. Paano naging panalo sa q n a hindi nga nya nasagot yung tanong. Baka na amaze ka lang sa tone and delivery nya. Pakinggab mo ulit di nya nasagot kaya 4th lang siya.

      Delete
    2. IMO, she dodged a bullet. Political ang tinanong kay Miss Cavite kaya matipid ang sagot niya. It's one of those pageant questions meant to throw the candidate off. Controversial. Kumbaga, hindi siya tanong na pang-pageant. Naitawid naman niya ang tanong. Sana sumali siya ulit.

      If MUP wants to throw in a few political questions, they shouldn't invite two political trolls to judge. Pero mukhang galing sa isa sa kanila yun.

      Delete
    3. 9:55, doon mo makikita if a candidate speaks from the heart. A person with conviction does not care for a politically-correct answer. He/she will say what he/she believes is true.

      I really thought Iloilo lost her chance to win when she said Miriam was the best president we never had, especially since the presidential spokesperson was in the panel of judges. But I guess the judges saw the sincerity in her answer.

      Delete
  33. Ysabella's gown is gorgeous! Pang international red carpet. I'm not a fan of Rabiya's overall look, is it just me or does she look like a mini-Shamcey Supsup? I didn't watch the pageant but Alaiza also looks amazing in her white Filipiniana inspired gown.

  34. in fairness, magaganda ang gown and magagaling din mga candidate. kung di nagkapandemic, ganda siguro ng plan nila.

  35. yan ang talent ng Pinoy designers. buti na lang walang pinaglaruan this year. yun nga lang, the results forgot that ms. u is all about elegance and standing out. in other words, ano ang X-factor ng candidate. sana rabiya will do justice.
