MANILA, Philippines – What does Miss World 2013 and now GMA 7 artist Megan Young think of Binibining Pilipinas 2015 candidate and fellow Kapuso Wynwyn Marquez?
In an interview with reporters during her contract signing with GMA 7, Tuesday, March 31, Megan said she’s met Wynwyn before, describing her as very determined and persevering.
Asked how she would feel if Wynwyn were ever to join Miss World, Megan said: “Why not? I mean, Wynwyn is a very nice girl. I met her kasi under Aces and Queens din siya, the camp that trained me, and she is a very very determined lady and if she wants to, why not? I say go for it, but only if she wants kasi dapat nasa puso mo iyan na sasali ka talaga (because it has to be in your heart, that you really want to join) especially for her since because it’s another time again,” Megan said.
Wynwyn, daughter of actor Joey Marquez and ex-wife Alma Moreno, joined the recently concluded Binibining Pilipinas pageant, where she won several awards, but failed to win a title after making it to the top 15.
Although she did not win a crown, Wynwyn said she was grateful for the love and support given to her by her family and followers. (READ: Wynwyn Marquez on Bb Pilipinas loss: I’m happy even with no crown)
On Lauren
Meanwhile, Megan said that her younger sister, actress Lauren Young, is not interested in joining any beauty pageants.
“No, kahit sino mag-encourage sa kanya, aayaw siya. Ayaw niya,” Megan laughed. (No matter who encourages her, she will definitely say no. She does not want to.)
As for celebrities who are interested to give pageants a go, Megan shared her own experiences about struggling with the decision: “Bago ako sumali, I weighed out, what if I lose, ‘di ba? At that time, may work ako pero on and off ang work ko noon so, what if I lose? Magkakaroon pa kaya ako ng work kasi ako yung talunan? And it was very hard for me kasi ako yung laging pinupush na ‘oh sali ka ng pageant, sali ka ng pageant.’ Tapos bigla madidisappoint sila if I lose. So iyon yung risk.
(Before I joined, I weighed it out – what if I lost? At that time, I had work, but it was on and off. Will I still have work after I lose? And it was very hard for me because I was always being encouraged to join pageants – and they would be disappointed if I lost. So that was the risk for me.)
“But I took it because inisip ko rin what if I won? Kahit yung local pageant there would be so many good things happening around me kahit hindi ko alam iyon. Alam ko maganda yung outcome if ever [I could be] a winner in the local pageant.”
(But I took it because I also thought, ‘What if I won?’ Even just the local pageant, there would be so many good things happening around me even, even if I didn’t know it. I know there will be a good outcome if ever I could be a winner in the local pageant.)
Megan went on to win the title in 2013. Valerie Weigmann, a model and TV host, was Miss World Philippines 2014. – Rappler.com
