That said, she did meet a few genuinely nice and inspirational contestants there who were championing good causes.
My friend said that overall it was an eye-opening experience, she's glad she did it but would never participate in something like that again. Oh and she said she was starving the whole time, there was basically no food available for the ladies, they had to sneak out to eat!

Yeah that pageant sounds really shady. It was held a week ago in Cebu, Philippines and I can't find who won.
