miss earth latest news: uncover

one of the most unique feature and something miss earth created is the no make up prejudging. this is a breakthrough in pageantry , as traditionally beauty pageants are always associated with full production ;from hair , make up, dresses, accesories the whole works. but miss earth shattered that tradition by uncovering the beauty of the girls to its most bare and most natural. miss earth has always been an innovator, it always pushes the limit and dares to be different and legendary. that is why it is called the most relevant pageant, always copied, always imitated by minor pageants even the older pageants have picked up some of its concepts and copied a lot of its ideas.

here are my top 18 choices for beauty of face and poise, i scored them separately and then totalled the 2 scores and then averaged.there were lots of scores tied , so i had to choose between which girl to include in the top 18.

something that is always unique with miss earth is the fact that during the pageant the girls travel all over the philippines visiting the different islands and provinces. spreading the message of environmental protection as well as showcasing the beautiful eco tourism sites of these destinations. the philippines is blessed with the most beautiful nature that are mostly undiscovered by most tourists. these ecotourism tours by the miss earth candidates will give these places a chance to show to the world what they can offer and that they deserve a share in the burgeoning tourism pie of the philippines.misses cyprus, ukraine ,paraguay,egypt ,tonga and cambodia had the privilege of visiting the island of romblon, the marble capital of the philippines. romplon has some of the most ebautiful islands that you can see only in your dreams and a lot of them are uninhabited.

the ladies experienced the best of romblon as they were taken to the famous bonbon beach with crystal clear blue waters and fine white sand. they did a school tour where they were treated like royalty and like true rockstars with hundreds of screaming schoolchildren wanting to get a glimpse of the queens.they visited several ecotourism sites and even ziplined from one island to another, experiences no other pageant offers. experiences that are priceless,timeless and no amount of hd photos can capture. because what miss earth offers are experiences that remain in the hearts of the candidates , that during the pageant they felt they have made a difference, felt that they inspired children and most of all experience real culture , real community, real happiness an the unique hospitality only filipinos can truly tender into each visitor.

next on the list is the organic city of bislig in surigao del sur which advocates for organic farming to promote well being as well as provide jobs to the local people. mindanao has long been shunned by most tourists due to bad press, but little does everyone knows it has some of the most virgin beaches, virgin islands, virgin forests and natural wonders that would take your breath away. one of this is the pride of bislig, the stunning TINUY-AN falls.the ladies gushed in delight upon seeing mother natures wonderful creation. an eco tour would not be complete without the ladies treated like esteemed guests, with schoolchildren lining up the streets waving their flags , much like a president of a country on an official visit. the miss earth queens really do feel loved, admired, thats why even if its hardwork it fuels them to go on because the love and respect they receive in their provincial tours is nothing short of spectacular. misses mexico, new zealand,malta,liberia,serbia and guyana were the lucky ones to visit this fantastic place in mindanao.

now for some tidbits of information, g force will be the official choreographer for the finals night , so expect some steamy hot opening as well as exciting segments.

the criteria for judging will be 60% beauty of face, fitness and poise , 40% intelligence ,environmental knowledge and attitude for the 16 semifinalists, the 17th spot will be the best eco video which will be decided by a special panel of judges. the 18th spot will be the eco -media award where it will be a combination of peoples choice via facebook and instagram with the glam shots being the photo to be voted on. the eco warrior award will be decided by another set of special judges where they will evaluate the candidates work before and during the pageant in promoting the environmental message of miss earth accross all social media.i am very happy that this was the final decision, initially the eco warrior and peoples choice via the glaamshots was supposed to be the two spots.after suggestions, meeting and consultations it was finally decided to recognize the efforts done by the candidate and her organization to come up with amazing eco videos which really is a powerful medium to convey the message of beauties for a cause to everyone. carousel has listened to all the fans suggestions, the only one that really needs to be done is choose a globally acceptable goddess to win. i hope the judges this year will have the foresight for the goddess of beauty VENUS to prevail and become the ultimate earth goddess of 2018. goddess of knowledge athena please take a rest for 2018 , we have had enough of your antics and tactics, it wasnt as good as the judges thought it was.......
