Kimverlyn Suiza and Hannah Ruth Sison were two of the strongest candidates at the recent 2015 Binibining Pilipinas beauty pageant, so when they were called as runners-up (Kimverlyn as 2nd runner-up and Hannah as 1st runner-up), a lot of people were shocked and disappointed.
Hannah shared with Celso de Guzman Caparas on Philippine Star that when her name was called, she was really sad because it was her last chance to compete internationally. “I am overaged and I want to continue to fight for my dreams.” Kimverlyn, on the other hand felt nothing but happiness. “I was really grateful considering that I didn’t even make it to the semi-finals last year.”
Hannah added that she was aiming for the chance to represent the country in Miss Universe. “It’s the only crown I’m qualified for to compete internationally.” Kimverlyn was honest enough to say that while her mind wants the same crown, her heart shouts for Miss International.
Just like Hannah, you won’t be seeing Kimverlyn in pageants anymore. She said, “This is my last year, my graduation in the pageant arena and I am happy to say that I have no regrets and I’ll make this one of the most memorable and best years of my life.”
The two are also very open to doing hosting gigs.
