Kisses umaming marami nang nagawang ‘pagkakamali’ sa edad 17
WINNER ang naging sagot ng young actress at aspiring beauty queen sa naganap na preliminary interviews para sa Miss Universe Philippines 2021 pageant.
Naganap ang paunang question and answer portion matapos ang pagrampa ng mga kandidata sa national costume competition nitong nagdaang Sept. 23.
Ang isang tanong kay Kisses, “If people truly learned from their mistakes, would they still advise a young person to keep making them?”
Dito inamin nga ng dalaga na sa murang edad ay marami-rami na raw siyang nagawang pagkakamali na naging daan para mas pagbutihin ang kanyang buhay at maabot ang mga pangarap.
Ang sagot ng young actress at dating “Pinoy Big Brother” housemate, “When I was 17 years old, I had made so many mistakes in my life. Just thinking about it right now makes me nervous.”
“But I think all those mistakes, like not trusting myself enough to love someone, all those mistakes will make me take more risks in the future. Which is why I take more risks now because I used not to,” pahayag ni Kisses.
Isa pang tanong, “If you have the power to do ONE of the following: Eliminate poverty and hunger, a government with no graft and corruption, or solve all environmental problems, which one would you choose?”
“I think the closest thing to my heart is eliminating hunger because coming from Masbate, there are a lot of places out there that really need… (have) children who need nourishment.
“And I think that that’s one of the biggest things that I need to focus on as a privileged person. I am not ashamed of my privilege but I think that I should do more in my whole life and especially, as a miracle baby,” aniya pa.
In fairness, bumilib ang mga supporters ng aktres sa naging answer niya. Anila, pinatunayan ni Kisses na may karapatan daw talaga itong manalo bilang bagong Miss Universe Philippines.
Nag-trending ang pangalan ni Kisses nitong nagdaang araw dahil sa kanyang Lapay-inspired national costume na gawa ni Polly Lagyap.
“LAPAY, Masbate’s most symbolic and culturally distinct bird. The white hovering seagull bird or great-billed heron, is one of the most typical and beautiful scenes in barangay Bantigue, Masbate,” ani Polly Lagyap sa kanyang Facebook post.
“The boats laden with abundant fish caught by small-scale fisher folks eagerly awaited by fish buyers and the LAPAYS makes an engaging portrait of the people’s everyday simple way of life,” sey pa nito.
Ibinandera ng mga Miss Universe PH 2021 candidates ang kanilang Carnival Queen-themed national costume sa isang virtual event na ipinalabas sa Empire Philippines’ YouTube channel.
Samantala, ngayong araw magpapatalbugan ang Top 30 finalists sa swimsuit and evening gown competition habang ang virtual fan voting naman ay extended hanggang Sept. 29.
Ang grand coronation night namam ay mangyayari sa Sept. 30 da Henann Resort Convention Center sa Panglao, Bohol.
