Jiro Shirakawa on getting top plum
|
Filipino-Japanese youngster Jiro Shirakawa wins top male division honors at the recently concluded Mossimo Bikini Summit 2009 which was held at the Skydome, SM North EDSA last night. Although not an early favorite, he bested nine other equally promising male hopefuls for the much-coveted title. This is the first major modeling competition won by theĀ 5′11″-tall Philippine School of Business Administration (PSBA) student-turned model who has become one of the favorite male mannequins of many a fashion designer today. Angelo Cacciatore took home the first runner up prize. Pics from the competition to follow very soon. Photo credits: Folded and Hung and Ian Ong |

i spoke with lemuel the other day. he shared this with me. last friday, may 29, a small private party was held at the mossimo main office in san juan. the party was thrown for the winners of mossimo, sinabay sa bday party ng isa sa mga boss ng mossimo. the winners were present except for angelo. what was surprising was this: sally, the coordinator for candidates of the competition made a special announcement that the production staff made a mistake in the tallying of votes on the finals night, thus, pronouncing geron as part of the top three. by the way, geron was at the party. maybe he already knew about the announcement. since angelo wasn’t there, could it mean that angelo was stripped off his 1st runner-up award? i just find this stupid because such an announcement is too major to be kept from the public. something this serious should be announced publicly. another thing, no offense to the coordinator, an announcement like that should be officially delivered by someone in authority like the producer or head of mossimo. why is this kept private? baka nga totoo na pinangakuan si geron ng pagkapanalo kaya ito nangyari!

Opsss!! well I agree sa comment mo markova..dahil hindi pa nag pupunta ang mga finalist sa boracay ay ugong-ugong na ang tsismis na si geron daw ang papapanalunin? naku mabuti na lang at di sumang ayon ang board of judges? at nanalo ang dapat na manalo at hindi naging lutuan? eto pa? tingnan nyo ang magiging billboard?!! yakk!!! nakakaloka!! ewan ko ba sa mossimo bakit sinisira ang image nila? nakakataas ng kilay? bakit umeksena sa photo shoot ng billboard ang geron?!! naku masyado na halata? kawawa naman yun iba? wag nyo kasi ipilit pa lalo lang nahahalata! yan lang ang payo ko..alisin sa billboard ang makakasira ng image sa mossimo 3 guys and 3 ladies lang ang alam ko na dapat ilagay at ipakita sa billboard at wag mag lagay ng isang extra pa..
