Nakausap ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) ang beauty queen na si Gwendoline Ruais sa relaunch ng Equal low-calorie sweetener kahapon, March 5, sa ballroom ng Luxent Hotel sa Timog Avenue, Quezon City.

Panahon na naman ng beauty pageants, kaya ito ang una naming inusisa sa Miss World 2011 First Princess.

Tinanong namin si Gwendoline kung may bet na ba siya sa Binibining Pilipinas ngayong taon.

Sagot niya, “Well, actually, to be honest, hindi ko pa nakikita yung mga contestants.

“I’m not really sure what’s going on, medyo busy kasi ako ngayon.

“Pero... I mean, it’s a beauty pageant, siyempre everybody watches naman and will support that.

“Hindi ko pa nakikita ang mga candidates, so when I see, siyempre there’s always somebody who stands out.

“Of course, I’ll look for intelligence, talent, height, personality.

“Sana, kung may time ako, titingnan ko ‘yan.”

TALENT AGENCY. Maraming candidates ngayon sa Binibining Pilipinas na nanggaling sa Mercator Model & Artist Management, na pinanggalingan din ni Gwendoline.

Pero ayon kay Gwendoline, “Ah... I’m not aware. I’m not with Mercator kasi I’m with ALV [Talent Circuit].

“Yes, I’m with Arnold [Vegafria]—since last year, end of last year.”

Ano nangyari at nawala siya sa Mercator?

“Well, matagal na. I’m not with Mercator for a long time na... it’s been more than a year.

“Actually, I never signed with Mercator, really.

“And then, I just chose a management that I just preferred—somebody I really like.
