The Miss Cagayan de Oro 2019 finally concluded its spectacular season with the crowing of a new Queen, Cinderella Faye “Cindy” Obeñita last Saturday at the Limketkai, Atrium this city.
The twenty-three year-old event host, and now the Crowned Miss Cagayan de Oro Obeñita proudly represented Barangay Carmen as she bested 11 other hopefuls in this year’s prestigious beauty pageant. Not only was she the crowd favourite for this year’s pageant, she also garnered major corporate and special awards during the pocket events of Miss CDO. She is joined by Nicole Ramos (1st Runner-up), Pauline Pielago (2nd), Vincy Vacalares (3rd), and Souarthizae Violon.
Kicking off the event was a catwalk with the ladies wearing their Coco Cabaña swimwear from the SM Store, followed by another in their Mags casual attire and in their modern Filipiña Terno designed by the Oro Fashion Designers Guild in partnership with Gaisano.
Obeñita during the coronation night was the crowd favourite to win it all. Cheers echoed throughout the Atrium chanting her name as the night boiled down to just two candidates vying for the crown. With hands held tight she and Ramos were left standing vying for the coveted crown of Miss CDO.
The crowd suddenly became silence as the anxious of whom the next queen would be; as the hosts announced the first runner-up – Nicole Ramos. Cindy Obeñita’s supporters became ecstatic, bursting with joy as their bet became the new Miss CDO.
As the former Miss CDO 2018 Mary Chris Suico crowns her successor, emotions run-high for both lovely ladies as tears. It was indeed an emotional evening for both queens and their families. During an interview Cindy shared her advocacies and plans for her reign, if given the chance to accomplish it, she is pushing for cervical & breast cancer awareness and education, not only in this city, but also neighbouring provinces.
The coronation night was judged by Actor Ton-Ton Gutierrez, Rene Salud, Sharifa Akeel, Oliver Amoroso, Rodrigo Yabut (COBI), Jennifer Galo (BEAUTYWISE), Macky Amores ( LKK ), Fernell Murillo Feliciano (Globe), JCI National President, Domz Ramos, Mylene Sison ( Luxe Hotel), Symonn Dablo (Suport Zebra), and Emma Tiglao.
