(Araneta Coliseum, Quezon City) General Santos City-born Shamcey Supsup, the 2010 architecture board topnotcher, was named the 2011 Binibining Pilipinas Universe during the pageant coronation night on Sunday, April 10 at the Araneta Coliseum.
         A surprised yet ecstatic Shamcey, who also graduated magna cum laude from the University of the Philippines Diliman, will represent the country in the Miss Universe Pageant in Sao Paolo, Brazil.
         "I still can't believe it. Parang panaginip. Kanina nung nag announce na sabi ko it's God's will. If it's for you, it's for you. You just have to believe it," Shamcey said in an interview after the pageant. "Whatever happens, it happens for a reason and God has a plan for every one of us... Ang dami talagang magaganda. Ang dami talagang magagaling. Feeling ko the judges had a hard time choosing the winner for the year."
          Asked if she's now feeling the pressure of accomplishing the feat of Venus Raj, who won fourth runner up in the Miss Universe pageant in Las Vegas last year, Shamcey said:
          "I'm not pressured at all kasi I believe I was here for a reason and whatever my destiny is, I'll do my best. I'm just gonna give it my all and I hope that whatever I'm gonna do there [Brazil] yun ang hinahanap nila at kung para talaga sa 'yo para talaga sa 'yo," Shamcey said.
          Shamcey bested 39 other candidates in the pageant. Aside from winning the major title, she also won three special awards: Miss Cream Silk, Ambassador of Philippine Airlines, and Miss Talent.
Meanwhile, Iriga native Dianne Necio bagged the Binibining Pilipinas International title and Pasig City resident Isabella Manjon was crowned Binibining Pilipinas Tourism.
          For Dianne, it is a dream come true after winning the first runner up plum last year."Last year, I joined and I ended up as first runner up and it was talagang pinagdasal ko. Kanina I'm not expecting anything. Sabi ko lang, 'Lord ibigay mo kung ano yung gusto mo ibigay.' So I'm just thankful na I will have the chance to compete in an international title... Talagang pag di mo tinigilan yung dream mo, maaabot mo siya and keep on praying," Dianne said in an interview.
          Isabella, on the other hand, could not contain her joy in winning the Tourism crown. "I'm so overwhelmed right now. Sobrang I feel blank. I'm so happy," she said.
         Other winners are First Runner Up Janine Tugonon and Second Runner Up Mary Jean Lastimosa.
         Rouding up the 15 semifinalists were: Candidate No. 6 Patricia Tumulak, Candidate No. 8 Marie Kristina May Marasigan, Candidate No. 11 Diana Arevalo, Candidate No. 13 Queenierich Rehman, Candidate No. 16 Sabrinne Al-Tawil, Candidate No. 19 Wendy Lucas, Candidate No. 23 Luzelle Felipe, Candidate No. 30 Kathleen Subijano, Candidate No. 32 Jenn Roe Gubat and Candidate No. 37 Sarah Clenci.

            I am very happy with the winning of Shamcey Supsup and Isabella Manjon and actually I am teary eyed by what had transpired. First from the impressive performance of the ladies, second to the beauties who have gone by and most especially fitting tributes to Maria Venus Raj, Krista Kleiner and Czarina Gatbonton. But most of all I am very happy for Shamcey Supsup competing for Miss Universe, for Isabella Manjon who will compete in Miss Tourism Queen International but I thought Manjon could've place better competing in Miss International but still happy for her and finally for Dianne Necio finally after competing again she finally got a title she wants and compete in Miss International. Although her answer last night were less potent and powerful than her answer a year earlier and the other top 15 semifinalists answers were more eloquent, persuasive and strong that deserves her spot, I am still happy for her and hopes three of them will prepare well for their respective competitions. For the runners up, Tugonon and Lastimosa congratulations as well and if you want a title please do compete next year or other national pageant competitions like Miss World Philippines and Miss Earth Philippines.I am happy as well for special award winners like Samantha Purvor and Angelia Ong, truly a memorable evening for them. For the rest, either who made it in the top 15 semifinalists or missed the cut most especially my favorites, please please please grant my favor to join again next year in the Binibining Pilipinas or join other other national pageant competitions like Miss World Philippines and Miss Earth Philippines because you deserves to compete internationally. If needed, I will ask a battalion of pageant followers to sign petitions for these lovely ladies to join the national pageant sending delegates internationally. If still not convince I will push these lovely ladies LITERALLY to force them to join. Really have mercy ladies, please do join next year or other beauty pageants! Congratulations to all the winners, may you make our dear country Philippines proud and bring home the crown and to all who made this event astounding successful and a moment to last a lifetime, thank you very much! Until the next beauty pageant this year and succeeding years to come. May a fruitful blessing from God will be upon us!
