So after a suspenseful event last night at Quirino Grandstand, Manila. At the other end of the world an event is happening. Most of us know that the Ms. Universe Pageant, the most prestigious beauty pageant in the world is currently airing and the Philippines' very own Maria Venus Raj has managed to enter into to the top 5 with a phenomenal answer to a question that is... "Major Major"
During the Miss Universe question and answer portion, Raj was asked by American actor William Baldwin about the biggest mistake that she made in her life and what she did to make it right.
She replied, "You know what, sir, in my 22 years of existence, I can say that there's nothing major major problem that I've done in my life because I'm very confident with my family, with the love that they are giving to me. So thank you so much that I'm here. Thank you, thank you so much!" ("Venus Raj's answer in Filipino: 'Wala po akong naging problema sa buhay ko na bonggang bongga! (major major)," As translated by a twitter user.
She ended up being the 4th runner up in the competition and it is no easy feat as being in the top 5 is already a notable achievement in such a prestigious event.
Yes, Major Major became a sensational hit throughout the internet. It is the 7th trending topic in twitter and rumours has it that it may become the word of the year in the Philippines right after "Jejemon" and is being cited as one of Maria Venus Raj's Legacy... But did you know that Major Major is also the name of an actual indie-rock band in the UK. Eitherway she still managed to pull off an amusing answer that would be talked about in the future...
Indeed, after a dark atmosphere that surrounded the Philippines the night before, Ms. Universe 4th runner up Maria Venus Raj managed to bring a light amidst the shame and condemnation that the Philippines suffered after a complete fiasco of last night's incident. . .
