Balak ko pong mag-sideline bilang impersonator.

Tulungan ‘nyo po akong mag-decide kung sino ang mas kawangis ko.

Thank you so much, ma’am, for that wonderful comment. Good evening, Washington, DC! *smile*

Yes, I’m also proud of our own Ms. Raj, dear, but let’s not go overboard here. I think I’ll pass on hailing the queen of all creations hehe

And yes, I’ve also read, heard at nasuka na sa mga comments sa “major, major”. Hundreds of them sa You Tube, blog and forum threads, etc. I’m wondering why the know-it-all crowd didn’t latch on the “thank you, thank you” sa last part ng sagot niya. Echo-ish din yon ah.

What never ceases to amaze me, though, is the fact that kapwa natin Pinoy ang nanlilibak sa kanya calling her tanga at boba. When I check their nicks, hindi naman Gloria Diaz o Margie Moran ang pangalan nila.

Silang dalawa lang ang may karapatang manlait, sa totoo lang, because they’ve worn that elusive crown many years ago. But of course, these classy ladies will never go there. Hay, mga talangka nga naman, ang titigas na ng mukha, ang titibay pa ng sikmura

A stupid question deserves a stupid answer. Yun lang ‘yon. She’s only 22 and making mistakes is part of growing up. Pangaraw-araw na pangyayari sa buhay ng isang bata, just like eating or going to school. And there are no big or small mistakes. if you are able to fix them, good for you.

And what’s the big deal? The question was a non-question to begin with. Napakababaw na tanong. It’s like asking, hey girl, what did you have for lunch today? And how did you digest it? No earth-shaking intelligent opinion needed. Ibulatlat sa mundo ang dirty linen mo and you’re done.

Hindi kataka-takang mababaw din ang sagot ni Ms. Raj. Pasalamat siya, sinagot pa siya nang maayos with an ear-to-ear smile. Siguro kung ako ang tatanungin ng ganoon, in front of the whole world, ito lang ang sagot ko…duh?? Or ganito:

Ella: Hmmm….mistakes, huh? Lemme see…When I was 5, I kicked my bother’s balls in. When I was 9, nagka-crush ako sa kaklase kong bading. At 15, I got my tongue pierced. When I turned 16, I punched 20 more holes in my earlobes.

At huwag laitin ang mga “mistakes” na yon. They were not only big at that time, they were freakin’ life-changing for me! May 20 butas ako ngayon sa tenga! You try fixing that.

And I imagine they would have to drag me out of that stage dahil parang teleseryeng walang katapusan ang mga big mistakes ko. Wala pa doon ‘yung fixing ‘em part

Ease up, guys. Obvious naman, sobrang happy at excited lang ang kandidata natin dahil nadala niya ang ating bansa hanggang sa top 5. Out of 83 candidates yun ha. And it’s no mean feat either. She was a crowd-pleaser and I guess pati siya na-overwhelm at hindi niya expected ‘yon.

She was dethroned as Bb. Pilipinas Universe earlier but against all odds, she fought for her crown. You may want to read a good write-up here.

Yup, Ms. Raj is one major, major, tough brown cookie. And she did our country proud.

And just to make a point…(thanks gailsky)

Addendum:

Haha Nakakaaliw ‘to. Hindi nga niya nakuha ang korona, nakuha naman niya ang atensyon ng buong mundo. Mas sumikat pa yata siya sa Miss Universe. Kakaiba. Major, major cool.

Bakit nga walang tamang sagot sa kalokohang tanong na ‘yon? Maybe that type of question is the height of tackiness. Too personal and leaning towards the negative. As if someone you just met suddenly asked you an impertinent question which infringes on your privacy. Wala sa hulog na tanong. Masyadong feelingero. Hellow, close ba kayo?

Mga sagot sa ganoong uri ng tanong:

Parang ang tagal ng buffering sa You Tube ngayon. Pagtiyagaan ‘nyo na. At saka medyo malakas ang sound pero natawa ako dito, pramis

Ah, I love ‘em guys…gurls?
