Many people didn't like the order of the announcement. As you can see, the Top 15 were announced based on their ordinal numbers and not in random. (If I were Numbers 1 to 5, I should have walked out already in the middle of the announcement.)

Newly uploaded video: Top 15 Announcement


Mykiru correctly predicted only 9 of the Top 15 semi-finalists.

But the Top 15 results are generally favorable as all of them were included in Mykiru's Top 25, except for one. Yeah, there's a surprising inclusion of one candidate. She's only 29th on my list. But it's okay, not a major disappointment.

If you notice, three former ABS-CBN talents (Kapamilya Deal Or No Deal 26k member Chloe McCully, PBB Celebrity Edition 2 ex-housemate Zara Aldana and ABS-CBN Dagupan's Ara Hanesh) all failed to enter the semis.

Binibining Pilipinas 2011 Parade of Beauties and Pageant Primer today, April 3

Binibining Pilipinas 2011 Grand Coronation Night is happening exactly a week from now and definitely the 40 Binibining Pilipinas 2011 candidates are all set and ready to vie for the three titles at stake.

Who will be the next Bb. Pilipinas 2011 titleholders?

But before that tense-filled pageant finale which will be aired on ABS-CBN this April 10, big things are happening first today, April 3, 2011.

First is the Parade of Beauties at 4PM, which is the pageant's way of officially welcoming the Summer.

It's your chance to see the beautiful candidates in their swimsuits as they ride in festive floats and tour around the Araneta Center.

The parade starts at Balay Expo in EDSA corner Gen. MacArthur Avenue then ends at the Gateway Pavillion.

For your guide, here's a map of the route for today's Parade of Beauties:

Also happening today is the telecast of the pageant primer which was taped last week at the Republiq.

The Binibining Pilipinas 2011 Road to the Crown pre-pageant primer will be airing tonight on ABS-CBN's Sunday's Best right after The Sharon Cuneta Specials.

It's hosted by Binibining Pilipinas-Universe 2010 Maria Venus Raj, TV host/reporter TJ Manotoc and his brother, model Borgy Manotoc.

Included in the primer is the National Costume Competition which was won by Candidate #2 Elizabeth Clenci.

Binibining Pilipinas 2011 Press Presentation: 3 more candidates added to the official list

The Binibining Pilipinas 2011 candidates were presented to the press yesterday, March 8, at the Sofitel Philippine Plaza Hotel.

There were still 40 Binibining Pilipinas 2011 candidates who paraded in front of the media despite removal of Grendel Alvardo, Jen Olivar and Roxanne Cabañero from the roster of candidates days ago.

It turned out that they added 3 new candidates to replace the above-mentioned names.

The three new official Binibining Pilipinas 2011 candidates are:

Candidate #9 Bernadette Aguirre from Bulacan


Candidate #17 Gerlie Lero from Catanduanes


Candidate #40 Monique Teruelle Manuel from Bataan

Monique is most familiar to pageant fans as candidate of Miss Philippines-Earth 2009 where she was among the Top 10 finalists. Remember her chicken pox admission during the interview portion?

Some of the candidates of Binibining Pilipinas 2011 are reportedly
unhappy with the addition of 3 more candidates.

It's understandable 'coz they've already participated in various pageant activities since January 29, more than a month ahead of the
three new candidates.

Jane Hidalgo was supposed to be among the 3 new candidates, but she's already set to join Miss Philippines Earth 2011.
