The third time is a
charm, as the proverbial saying goes. And it did “wonders’ for Jehza Mae Huelar
after winning Bb. Pilipinas Supranational 2018.
Huelar and Miss
Universe 2015 Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach have the same fate when Pia joined thrice
the national pageant before claiming the crown and rightfully representing the
Philippines in the world renowned beauty tilt.
According to Jehza,
Pia is her role model. They were runners-up during their first try, and then
they were part of the Top 15 in their second attempt.
However, this year’s
Bb. Pilipinas Universe Catriona Gray is a crossover beauty who won Miss World
Philippines in 2016 and ended in the Top 5 at the Miss World finals and really
deserves to win.
But when asked by
inquirer.net, “wouldn’t it be better if titleholders from Bb. Pilipinas were
barred from joining Miss World Philippines, and vice versa?”
“This should be done
to give other candidates, especially the first-timers, a fighting chance,”
replied Huelar.
Meanwhile, Jehza is
preparing everything for the Miss Supranational pageant on 7 December 2018 at
the mountain resort of Krynica-Zdroj in Poland in time for its 10th edition.
She is getting information about the organization’s background and the people
behind it which according to her is the most important part of her groundwork.
Jehza added that the
best part of being a beauty queen is being an influencer while the toughest
part is to be consistent in influencing others in a positive way. The beauty
queen from Davao revealed that if she failed to win this year, she’s definitely
not joining in 2019.
Jehza is now engaged
to PBA star PJ Simon who according to her is very supportive of her passion.
They prefer intimate garden wedding, or one at a beach.
Back in November
2017, these writers had a chat with Jehza’s aunt Carmela Huelar at the Sofitel
Hotel and informed her that Miss Supranational crown is more than fitting to
her niece – which she’s justly carrying and aiming to win. Mutya Johanna Datul
is the first Filipina to win the crown in 2013.
