Binibini 17 Brenna Cassandra Gamboa and Binibini 19 Christi Lynn McGarry are two of the best speakers in this year’s batch
You can’t deny the fact that oral fluency in English can always make a Binibini stand out. True, we are now encouraging pure Tagalog communicators to make use of a translator during their Q&As. But still, anyone who can take on the universal language by the horns can always accumulate extra points for being articulate and easily understood by an international panel.
Binibini 17 Brenna Cassandra Gamboa is a motivational speaker by profession. Her English facility is commendable. It also comes with the territory to think on her feet. And I can be a sucker for ladies who speak their mind in unrehearsed mode.
English is the first language of Binibini 19 Christi Lynn McGarry. Having grown in the US, she doesn’t have any problems expressing her thoughts in the said tongue. While she tries to pepper her answers with short Filipino phrases here and there, the American twang will always be evident.
They’re good English speakers no doubt. But will that significantly help them secure spots during the Bb. Pilipinas 2015 finals?
And based on beauty merits alone, I think they’re already on the upswing. Now if they can combine all of their strengths to an impressive whole, then the judges will definitely keep a watchful eye and pencil them grades appropriate to what they can offer as potential winners. ;-)
