5th runner-up Philippines: The right type of replacement, no longer being looked down on, now even the clothes are not worn?

After landing in Thailand for two weeks, Top 10 Miss Grand International is still busy "running the show" in the first days of her term. After the Victoria's Secret style night, the queens continued to take pictures with partner units. However, unlike the other 9 people, the 5th runner-up from the Philippines made beauty fans "shake their heads" at the outfit that the organizers prepared for her.

Specifically, 10 beauties were prepared in white uniforms, but all attention was on the "less beautiful" dress of 5th runner-up Roberta Tamondong from the Philippines. All other sisters' skirts are exquisitely designed, hugging the body to easily show off their curves. Only the 19-year-old beauty's dress is baggy with loose fabric, "outdated" off-shoulder design.

This is probably the only time beauty fans witnessed Roberta Tamondong down in style in her dress style when on screen.

The whole process of participating in Miss Grand International or when participating in a domestic beauty contest, the 19-year-old beauty always knows how to invest in the appearance of her personal page and in reality.

Roberta Angela Tamondong was born in 2002, 1.75 m tall, sharp face. She was famous as an actress and model before entering the beauty arena. The beauty studied at the University of San Beda.

Tamondong's personal page only has nearly 170,000 followers. However, each photo and sharing line of the beauty received great interaction from the public, especially around the time she competed at Miss International Peace 2022.

It is known that before becoming the 5th runner-up of Miss Peace International 2022, Tamondong is also a familiar name of many domestic beauty contests, having been crowned Miss Eco Teen Philippines 2020, won the title of Binibining Pilipinas Grand International. 2022. She represents this country in Miss Grand International 2022 and is always considered a strong candidate.

In the final night of Miss International Peace 2022 taking place in Indonesia, Roberta Angela Tamondong only stopped in the top 20, making beauty fans regret. She was once expected to extend the achievement of the Philippines at Miss Grand International. Before that, the Asian beauty powerhouse was twice named in the 1st runner-up position (in 2016 and 2020).

However, on the evening of October 30, two days after Yuvna Rinishta (Mauritius) was forced to return the title, the Miss Grand International organizers announced Roberta Angela Tamondong (Philippines) as the 5th runner-up instead. Thus, from the final top 20 position, Roberta Angela Tamondong was promoted directly to the top 10.

In the notice, the organizer did not specify which criteria or evaluation table to choose Roberta Angela Tamondong on. Therefore, besides congratulation, beauty fans argue why they represent the Philippines and not other countries.

A large number of other viewers commented that Miss Grand's awarding was cluttered, unprofessional, and felt like a game of chance. Normally, in most contests, when the beauty queen or runner-up is stripped of the crown, the person standing next to the bottom will be chosen instead. It is a clear, undisputed result.

But with Miss Grand, it is different, for the first time in its 10-year history, the organizers awarded up to five 5th runner-up titles. Thus, including 1st runner-up, 2nd runner-up, 3rd runner-up and 4th runner-up, they have a total of 9 runner-ups - an unusual number in this field ever. Moreover, all runner-ups must sign a one-year binding contract with the organizers, ie all activities and work must follow the schedule arranged by Mr. Nawat.

A network member questioned Mr. Nawat: "Why the Philippines but not Nigeria, Curacao or Vietnam? What score do you use to choose the runner-up. The contest is unprofessional." Another account shared the same opinion: "Roberta Angela Tamondong is not unworthy. But I still wonder why she was chosen, whether Mr. Nawat wants to please the Filipino audience to increase his followers".

"I really hope Roberta does not accept this title. Why do you need more runner-up when there are already 4 runner-up 5? Hope Roberta is not taken advantage of by this organization," a net member from the Philippines left. comment.
