  1. She’s a fighter. I’m one of her supporters but her performance wasn’t that impressive. She looked undeniably stunning in that evening gown. There might be a nice reason why she wore that gown. However, the selection committee wouldn’t know why her team chose that gown, would they? Of course, they are looking for a beauty queen, not a Disney princess—-a spokesperson, an ambassador. A woman who stands out. Chelsea did not stand out in that evening gown. Those gowns that she wore in her photoshoots are far better than that blue ball gown.

    1. They say wala nang points sa EG during prelims. Kaya siguro yan ang sinuot nya, since they just let them stand in there. Sa umpisa pa nga they removed the EG segment kaso binash sila ng todo kaya tinuloy. But same story, bash pa rin coz pinatayo lang pala mga candidates.

    2. Kalma beh. Walang score ang EG ngayon.

      Delete
    3. Oo walang score pero yang mga unang performance nila syempre ang unang nakikita ng mga judges and from there nailista na nila kung sino ang mga babantayan nila sa finals

    4. Agree...parang a-attend lang sa JS

    5. Sana TIGILAN NA NG MGA DESIGNERS yung too personalized gowns na may meaning behind them. Hindi naman maiintindihan ng judges ang inspiration niyan. Hindi na sila natuto kay MMD. GAWIN NIYO YAN SA NATIONAL COSTUME. Ano yun, i-eexplain pa. Dapat prelims pa lang, laban na agad. Sayang ang opportunity.

      Delete
    6. 9:37 tama ka. Tumpak na tumpak! Kay Catriona lang gumana ang bertud ng personalized gown. Tapos ginaya na ng iba ayun ligwak. It doesn’t work all the time kasi di ba?

      Tsaka tama, prelims pa lang dapat laban na laban na. Tapos confident daw syang maiuuwi nya ang korona. HOW? Sa prelims pumili ng top 30 dzai. Ano pa ilalaban nya sa pageant night? Sayaw na lang ganon? Hahaha

    7. Huh, eh stand-out nga sya sa gown nya. Kahit ang simple style at walang sparkle. That color is so calming and ang ganda nung turns

    3. Nagulat ako na blue ang pinasuot sa kanya. She looks good in yellow, gold, red, hot pink and white. Kahit neon green bagay sa kanya but not blue.

      I still love her sana bawi sa sunod. Please dont let her wear white.

      Delete
    4. *blue. Don't let her wear blue. White is her best color.

  3. Maybe because they will just walk and stand there infront of the judges. They dont have a Chance to walk longer and project. She need to be seen

    2. 9:20 jf you watched the entire feed at the prelims yesterday, for sure nakita mo siyang nag twirl before their exit. Sway sway lang yung ginawa niya sa video above kasi sobrang short nung exposure time. She did what she had to. Buti nga siya gumalaw eh. Yung iba nakatayo lang.

      Delete
    3. True. There are 125 constestants. They went for a simple but big gown para mapansin. If they go with jewels baka mag blend lng sha with the other contestants. She did great with the gown, the sway and the twirl was so pretty. Even if you look like a Disney princess, you can still become a queen and represent.

    gown: dislike! its a meh! it made her look so short! and the color does not compliment her gorgeous skin!

    1. Bakit kaya ganon mga candidates lately. Si Pia and Cat lang talaga para sa akin ang makikita mung palaban na may ilalaban, total package ba hindi lang looks and confidence, yung di ka mapapahiya once they open their mouth. Ok din confidence ni Michelle kaya lang wala syang charm.

  10. I find her performance okay. It wasn’t that bad but it’s okay. Will she make it to the first cut? I’m not sure but I hope so.

  11. Ang ganda ng dress pero she ran away with the princess concept. Sana mas fierce sa awrahan.

    2. Wag pumalakpak.

    3. 3:00 Agree with you! Si Pia and Catriona may winning aura na agad sa prelims pa lang. You’ll know the winning aura once you see one talaga

    4. Teh pinagsasabi mo? Pia and Cat pasabog agad sa prelims eh. Lalo na si Cat yng slow mo turn nya haist sayang si Chelsea ang lamya ng walk sobrang layo sa MUPH performance nya

      Delete
    5. 3:00 true!! Grabe nun kay Cat at Pia prelims palang

      Delete
    6. Si Pia nag shine siya noong evening gown with her smize look + swimsuit with her jiggly bombs. While si Cat naman yung slowmo turn niya ang talagang naging trademark and gold standard sa catwalk. So far si Chelsea wala pang mark…bukod sa pagiging Princess Tatiana

  14. Aside sa performance nya, hindi na nag stand out yung beauty nya nya nung naitabi na sa ibang candidates.

  15. Wala talaga siyang dating. Ang lamya at baduy pa styling niya. Sash Factor lng reason kaya mkaka penetrate siya sa finals.

  16. Rooting for her kaso ang inaabangan ko na walk yung fierce walk niya during the muph finals, ang ganda nun eh laban na laban. Ok naman din yung ngayon kaso parang madaming ikot, strides, nawala na yung essence ng signature walk niya more of Parang katulad na lang rin sa iba

  18. Kulang sa impact. I mean, if you want to get that crown so bad, I’m quite sure you’d do your best and would try to impress sa selection committee, right? Mexico, Dominican Republic, Chile and Peru were very consistent. Another Celeste ito. May laban na pero nakampante at hindi napanindigan ang energy.

  20. Kelan kaya marerealize ng mga kandidata natin na malaking bagay din ang prelims para makapasok sa semi-finals? Parang ang laging pangako nila at ng team ay lalaban sa pageant night mismo. Buti sana kung sa pageant night lang mismo sila binibigyan ng score hane?

  22. This edition is for Peru. Ibigay na natin at yun ang obvious, sya talaga ang consistent. Walang tapon kay Peru. Para bang last minute pinanghinaan na si Chelsea dahil ang lakas ng cheer kay Peru pero sa kanya wala masyado.

  23. Nakakatawa yung nababasa ko sa facebook na inilaban daw ni Chelsea ang pagiging woman of colour nya sa Miss Universe. Teka lang naman, hindi lang naman siya ang woman of colour doon. Wag nyo naman gawing bayani si Chelsea. 😂

  24. Sabi ng team ni Chelsea, “believe in her.” We did. We still do. Pero alam naman nating lahat na lahat ng ginagawa ni Chelsea ay turo ng team nya at ng MUPH. Baka “know when to peak” case nanaman ito. Mama Jonas, she might have lost her moment because of your principle. Lol

  34. Anyare? She was so good during MUPH eh ☹️

  35. Yung beginning pose niya creative naman kaso may superhero vibes ng slight ang datingan. Costume-y ba. Nakataas kasi yung kamay at cape. Di bale sana kung napanindigan yung creativity until the very end kaso ang nangyari parang di na siya naging sure kung ano ang magiging poses niya sa middle, front and pagexit., parang naging last minute or afterthought na lang yung mga galaw niya. Parang sige eto na lang ganito na lang ang gagawin ko. Sayang lang. hindi rin ganon ka sultry ba. Hindi ko siya binabash, siguro nagexpect lang talaga ko more of her. Was actually rooting for her kaya siguro nag expect ako ng malala. Sana manggulat na lang siya sa finals

    Very strong performances during Ms. Philippines pero pagdating sa Ms. Universe, biglang nawala ang fierceness and fighting spirit.
    Naging pabebe 😶

  45. Why would MU Organization get a candidate that looks like a Disney princess? That's wrong branding. MUPH kelangan talaga i fire na at ibalik sa Binibini. Wrong choice parati, for the sake of maiba lang. Until now, wala pa kayo napapanalo to think na naka concentrate lang kayo sa isang pageant.

  64. Lame performance, wrong choice of gown and color. That blue ball gown was too plain and it made her look shorter and didn’t give justice to her beauty. Yellow or white gown could have been better. Kung ganyan kahinhin ang galaw, sana sa Miss International sumali. Miss Universe is looking for an empowered woman—a transformational beauty. Not “sleeping” beauty, not a Disney princess. Jonas Gaffud’s ways are so 2000 and late.

  65. Hindi bagay sa kanya ang blue

  67. She's giving us variety of colors but the fierceness, smize in her eyes isn't there. She comes out weak tuloy, not standing out. Magkamukha pa sila ni Turks & Caicos

    ReplyDelete
  68. I think even if she did her fierce walk, marami pa ring hindi makuntento. Si Pia nuon super bash talaga ng mga Pinoy, kahit si Bea binash rin during prelims because of her performance. Yung kay Celeste sobrang praises binigay dahil aside na maganda, magaling din rumampa but anong nangyari?!
    Aside from their beauty and performance, importante pa rin ang 'brains' at character. The org will make sure of that coz they will work together for a year.

    Just enjoy Chelsea. If it’s destiny it will happen. If not move on.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Ok lang yan at least kasama ang Philippines sa opening prod. Let’s face it, we don’t stand a chance this edition. Maganda si Chelsea and nothing’s wrong with her height and color. The problem is wala syang ganong confidence and charisma na hinahanap sa Miss Universe. I still don’t understand kung bakit sya nanalo sa MUPH to be honest kasi even sa MUPH lame ang performance nya. Yung tampisaw walk lang ata nagpapanalo sa kanya. A lot of you will disagree pero yan ang point of view ko. She shouldn’t be in MU in the first place.

    ReplyDelete
  75. I think MUPH should hire new breed of coaches and stylists. Kasi baka may bago silang insights na makakatulong kasi nagbabago ang taste ng MU. Hindi na uso yung matagal na sa pageantry ang mga head ng MUPH kaya they know better. It doesn’t work that way all the time.

    Additionally, ang galing ng Pilipinas sa mga pasabog sa social media pero pag nasa stage na ang weak na ng candidate natin. Sana mas magfocus next time sa pagbuild up ng confidence. Hindi naman pictures kasi ang inilalaban sa Miss Universe di ba mga ante? Noon wala masyadong pasabog nung time nina Venus Raj, Janine Tugonon, Shamcey Supsup, Ariella Arida, and Pia Wurtzbach pero nailaban di ba? Pasok sa banga. And then come Catriona’s time, iba na ang landscape ng pageantry. Dapat day 1 pa lang palaban na. You see? Iba na ang panahon ngayon. Paiba-iba ang hinahanap nila. Sure ba ang MUPH na mga pasabog na photoshoots ang labanan? It seems like doon na lang magaling ang MUPH.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Nakakamiss ang peak pageant era ng Pilipinas - the streak that Venus started, ngayon parang nawala na sa atin ang kinang. :(

  77. Let’s face the fact that we cannot always win the crown. BUT, PH’s candidate should have all the attributes that Miss Universe Org is looking for. Hindi na gagana ang pagiging pabebe at malamya. Brand ambassador ang hinahanap nila, yung pag nasa harap ng crown all eyes and ears are on her. Anong pake ng Miss Universe sa backstory ng gown? Dapat Day 1 pa lang ng competition handa ang candidate. Laban kung laban. Hindi yung panay salita. Tignan mo si Rabiya at Celeste. Nasobrahan sa yabang at confidence, pagdating sa stage nawala. So paano ka pupuntusan ng judges? Sa personal na kwento mg suot mo o sa performance mo? Tell us, MUPH. Galing mo Mama Jonas di ba? Hahaha

    ReplyDelete
  78. Madalas mas marunong pa talaga ang mga nagcocomment dito at ang viewers kaysa sa mga nasa MUPH sa totoo lang. Sa dami ba naman nating PH candidates na napanood at sinuportahan, sa dami nating panalo at talo at sa daming kandidata from other countries na napanood nating magagaling, for sure alam na nating kung ano dapat at hindi dapat. Sana magbasa ng comments ang MUPH dito. Ang daming opinions and comments na tama naman talaga.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Ganyan din ba walk nya sa MUPH? I hope magaling siya sa behind the scenes else waley.
