This is the first time that the Bahamas will be hosting the Ms. Universe Beauty Pageant and the Philippine candidate, Ms. Philippines Pamela Bianca Manalo, received a cordial welcome from more than 500 Filipinos residing in the country. She feels quite comfortable staying in the host nation where she and her fellow Ms. Universe candidates have been staying for more than a month.
Ms. Manalo was happy when the Pinoys showed her their support as they cheered for her to win in this remarkable event. This is the 58th year of the pageant and it will be held at the Atlantis Resort Paradise Island. On the previous year, Vietnam hosted the event where Ms. Venezuela was crowned the title. Two years back, it was held at Mexico and Ms. Japan won as Ms. Universe.
The audience already has their favorites among the contenders and these are namely (not in particular order), Ms. Philippines, Ms. Iceland, Ms. Ecuador, Ms. Russia, Ms. Canada, Ms. Puerto Rico, Ms. USA, Ms. Mexico, Ms. Dominican Republic, Ms. Venezuela, and Ms. Sweden.
The 2009 Miss Universe Beauty Pageant will be aired live via satellite by ABS-CBN on August 24, 2009 at 9:30 AM and the primetime telecast can be viewed at Velvet (Channel 53 of SkyCable) at 8:00 PM.
