This is a live-blogging entry of the Miss Philippines Earth competition aired on May 11, 2008 from Crowne Regency Galleria, through ABS-CBN. (Production number had a special participation of the Bellestar Dancers! Bongga!)
(NOTE: There will be a lot of typos and grammar lapses in this post. Please bear with me, I will edit them tomorrow. Thanks!)
Opening Production Number is fast-paced, lively and not boring, kinda similar to Miss Universe 2007.
Most of the girls are surprisingly pretty! Some are just surprising.
