Filipino Teens Compete In Mr. And Ms. Teen Tourism Universe In Guatemala


Two teenagers will represent the country in the Mr. and Miss Teen Tourism Universe contest in Guatemala on October 2, 2012.
Rohama Rearte and Aljohn Lucas earned the right to represent the Philippines in the contest after they won the Mr. and Ms. Olive-C Campus Model held at the Ynares Sports Complex in Pasig City on Jan. 28, 2012. Both are high school students.
Rearte, 16, who stands 5’7” tall, studies at Hillcrest School in Antipolo City. Lucas, also 16, is a student at the Taytay United Methodist Christian School in Taytay. He stands 5’8” tall. Both teenagers received P25,000 cash, one-year-supply of Olive-C soap, and P100,000 guaranteed modeling contracts as Olive-C image models. Their faces will soon appear in billboards nationwide.

Lucas said that he dreams of becoming an actor. “Gusto kong maging artista at naniniwala ako na ang pagkapanalo ko ay magiging stepping stone ko para makapasok sa show business.”
Same goes with Rearte who also want to join show business. “I really want to become an actress but at first I dream of joining another beauty pageant.” She said that her idol among beauty queens is 2011 Miss Universe-Philippines Shamcey Supsup.
In a press conference held in Quezon City recently, the two were introduced to the media by Jaime Acosta, President of Psalmstre Enterprises, Inc.
International pageant organizer Obet Ricalde said the Guatemala pageant is the usual pageant that we see. “Kaya nga lang, hindi ito palakihan ng katawan or pagandahan ng katawan. It’s for teenagers talaga.”
Psalmstre earlier sponsored a candidate in the international pageant, Look of the Year in Italy where Jea-Ann Finuliar represented the Philippines.
