5 Pinay beautifuls are in Guangxi, China to represent the Philippines in the 3rd Asia Supermodel Contest to be held from May 16 to 25.

The five Pinay beautifuls who will compete in the said model search are young actress Rhian Ramos from GMA Network; Bb. Pilipinas 2007 1st runner-up Abigail Cruz; StarStruck graduates Arci Muñoz and Rhea Nakpil, and newcomer Steph Henares. Steph is the daughter of Artist Center head Ida Henares and the first cousin of Rhian.

The Asia Supermodel Contest is sponsored by the Chinese Fashion Association, Guangxi TV station, in cooperation with China Bentley Culture Development Company.

The five Philippine representatives will model the creations of fashion designer Ramon Sabella. They’ll be competing with models from China, Japan, Korea, India, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam. Each of these countries will also send five models—all expenses paid.

Steph Henares said she and the other four girls were chosen by the Chinese Fashion Association to represent the Philippines. The selection process was done through photos sent to the organizers of the contest. From these photos, the Chinese Fashion Association made their choices.

As for Abigail Cruz, she is keeping her fingers crossed that their team will win in China. “I’m celebrating my 24th birthday on May 30 and we’ll be back here in time for it. My birthday wish is for us to bring honors to the country.”

The Asian Super Models Contest aims to promote Asia’s top models and to help organize the Asian Model Economic Alliance.

Goodluck to our Pinay Beautifuls!
