Binibining Pilipinas Winner, Miss Universe Runner-up Shamcey Supsup

A real beauty and brain combination is Shamcey Supsup, who became third runner-up to Leila Lopes of Angola in the Miss Universe 2011 pageant. She was born on May 16, 1986 in General Santos City (from the Philippine southern region of Mindanao).

Here is a photo of her with Anne Curtis for the September 2012 catalog for AVON Philippines.

She is really intelligent. She not only graduated as valedictorian of her grade school batch and as salutatorian in Makati High School (secondary). Shamcey also finished magna cum laude from the University of the Philippines – the country’s premiere tertiary institution. Miss Supsup even topped the 2010 Architect Licensure Examination.

On April 10, 2011, she won the Binibining Pilipinas pageant at the Araneta Coliseum (where the historic “Thrilla in Manila” bout between Ali and Frazier was fought).

At the Miss Universe pageant in Brazil on September 12, 2011, she topped the online poll for its question and answer portion. The gorgeous Supsup also placed second in the online ranking for the evening gown competition.

During the Miss Universe pageant's question and answer portion, judge Vivica A. Fox asked her the question: "Would you change your religious beliefs to marry the person that you love? Why or why not?"

To which, the Filipina beauty replied, "If I had to change my religious beliefs, I would not marry the person that I love because the first person I love is God, who created me. I have my faith and my principles, and this is what makes me who I am. And if that person loves me, he should love my God, too."

As of this writing, it has been announced that she is set to marry businessman Lloyd Lee.

Loveliest UAAP Season 75 College Basketball Courtside Reporters

Just recently, I turned my eye on these lovely students who moonlight as reporters of college basketball – particularly, on the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) not on its predecessor the National Collegiate Athletic Association or NCAA.

Lo and behold! There are new and fresh faces on the hardcourt! Yes, UAAP Season 75 features very beautiful Filipina non-showbiz girls who could give these pretty Pinay celebrities a run for their money.

You may regard this post as an “update” of an earlier post written five months ago about Jessica Mendoza (the cute courtside reporter from Ateneo who now is part of the PBA franchise).

So wear your college colors and cheer for your school’s courtside reporter, whether you are rooting for the Adamson Falcons, the Ateneo Blue Eagle, the De La Salle Green Archers, the FEU Tamaraws, the NU Bulldogs, UP Maroons, the UE Warriors, or the UST Tigers. Here they are… (drum roll).
