Philippines: Four-Peat Placement At The Miss Universe 2013

Philippines claimed it's fourth placement at the Miss Universe beauty pageant competition. Last 09-NOV-2013, Ms. Ariella Arida, 24 years old from the Philippines proclaimed as the Third Runner Up for this year's competition which was held in Moscow, Russia.

For the last four years, four modern, beautiful Filipinas have left an outstanding impression on the Miss Universe stage.

Maria Venus Raj - MU 2010 Fourth Runner Up
Shamcey Supsup - MU 2011 Third Runner Up
Marie Janine Tugonon - MU 2012 First Runner Up
Ariella Arida - MU 2013 Third Runner Up

Personally, these four ladies are have her own unique beauty and they appeal differently, see side-by-side-by-side-by-side photos of these women during the competition.

The big question is, 'Will the Philippines continue to place next year'? It all depends if the country will ever find someone who's got the height body and grace of Venus, the precious smile, charm and likeability of Shamcey, the elegance, wit and intelligence of Janine and the appeal, determination and gutsiness of Ariella.

We'll standby and wait until next year, for the meantime watch and enjoy the video playlist featuring ladies' overall performances during their competition below.
