Beauty queen and actress Kylie Verzosa is back in pageantry, not as a beauty queen, but as an adviser to candidates of a national pageant in a Middle Eastern country that just recently joined the Miss Universe organization. | diyarista
Yugen, the organization’s national director, said Verzosa immediately agreed when he offered her the position. “Kylie is super accommodating, she’d help all the girls. She’s one of the humblest celebrities that I know,” he said.
Verzosa said Yugen approached her last year. “I was so excited. I was able to train some of the girls, even Evlin, especially with my experience in the pageant, proper mindset, [have] more confidence, how to prepare for a pageant. I feel so lucky, so honored and so blessed. And I would love to help other girls achieve their dreams,” shared the 2016 Miss International titleholder, the sixth Filipino woman to snag the crown.
For his third year as national director, Yugen will employ the reality show format to choose the winner. Similar to “America’s Next Top Model,” the Miss Universe Bahrain contest will gather a group of ladies who will undergo a series of challenges to help determine who the best is among them. Over 100 applicants have signified their intention to take part in the competition, Yugen said.
From the pool of applicants, the organization will narrow them down to the top 20 aspirants. Only the eight best contenders will move on to the reality show phase of the competition. Yugen said the ladies will be flown to the Philippines where the entire filming will take place. The winner will be determined in July.
The next Miss Universe Bahrain will represent the Middle-Eastern country in the 72nd Miss Universe pageant in El Salvador later this year, and will try to inherit the crown from Filipino-American queen R’Bonney Gabriel, the ninth delegate from the United States to capture the title.
