Hello!
Okay please sit up straight.
I am right?
I’m up straight eh.
I am.
PD: Can I have your name and age please?
This never happens in any episode ever.
Hi I’m Wen Chuan.
Why is it so formal ah?
Why need name one?
Don’t know.
Hi I’m Charmaine.
PD: Sit straight.
I’m 20.
What is beauty to you?
I can only think of quote that like Fauzi keeps telling me.
Beauty is temporary, dumb is forever.
I think overall beauty is -
If a person is not ugly behavior wise.
Whatever is aesthetically pleasant.
Be it food, be it another human being.
Beauty is what -
it’s what’s on the inside.
I feel like beauty shines from within.
Therefore, stay golden.
PD: Please close your eyes.
Okay.
Why?
Oh my god what’s this?
Oh my god, put this out.
PD: Alright, okay open your eyes.
PD: Congratulations, you’ve been nominated to be part of TSL Beauty Pageant 2017!
Nice.
What?
What is this?
What there’s only two of us?
We’re the finalists!
Oh my god so cute!
I love it.
Wait, are we going to wear swimsuits?
PD: No, ew!
Oh my god, there’s money in this?
Wow nice!
I don’t care for $10.
Just want to wear a crown the entire day.
PD: Have you guys watched Miss Universe before?
Yes!
Every year!
Oh my god, you know it’s my favourite you know.
I love Miss Universe.
I watch it every year without fail.
Although I like it right, I just feel like we shouldn’t start young.
Like cause then you will become very spoilt.
Like you know Toddlers and Tiaras?
Ya ya ya yes.
I wanna be -
I’m rich and I have everything!
It’s vibrant, charismatic.
I have the confidence.
I’m cool, calm and collected.
I’m what you want to represent TSL, as the face.
My personality is bubbly.
And I think people -
when people meet me they would love to hang out with me.
I would like to spread a positive message,
through my personality and hopefully one day
people will be inspired by my story
and spread good word to everyone in the world.
Thank you.
Er...you know.
I - I - I - I
I’m not a very interesting person okay.
But what I can put to the table
is my honesty, my candidness.
I am that slap in the face
when you need someone to tell you the truth.
Yes.
And I love animals.
Thank you Q for the question.
PD: Don’t need that.
I see myself as a super outgoing person.
And I think that’s very important in life
Because how else are you gonna go out there.
You know because outgoing.
I will leave it up to you guys to decide how I am -
how am I as a person.
Thank you.
Well, I write articles for the news, for Must Share News.
So I’m able to inform every Singaporean
about what's going on right now.
Train breakdowns, do you all know what is happening?
You’re welcome.
You have saved us all.
You’re welcome.
I believe my greatest contribution to this earth when I leave,
will be showing my relatives' children that
this is not the person you want to grow up to be.
Personally, I like to eat I don’t waste food.
So there’s no food wastage.
And that I’m quite a messy person so umm…
Shh!
I’m quite a messy person and that will open up jobs to people
because I will employ people to help me umm...
clean my desk and my room.
So, more job opportunities in the community.
50% (of the money) I would save it.
And then a small portion, as cliche as this sounds
I will give it charity.
Like a orphanage or something.
And then a part of it I will give it to my parents.
And the rest, I will go shopping!
Thank you.
Honestly, I will give it all to my parents.
Because my parents have work so hard
to support me and my brother and I feel they deserve everything.
Okay half goes to -
half goes to the dolphins, because they need us.
And then I will -
I will open a shop for my mother
because she likes to cook and I also like to cook with her.
And then umm…
You left how many percent?
I want to buy a cinema.
Oh!
My heart is my favourite part of my body.
Er...because it keeps me alive.
What about my metaphorical heart.
Like how much compassion I have for everyone in the world.
Umm for the animals I take care of.
I have seven cats at home and they are all rescues.
My favourite part of my body is clearly the beard.
So I have two favourite parts of my body.
PD: I only asked for one.
If you can see this.
Can you see the definition of the forearm?
And another part is -
I’m not sure if you can get a good look of this.
PD: The tan line ah?
No not the tan line.
Aesthetic wise is my eyes.
There’s a reason why everyone keeps asking me whether I’m Chinese.
I think it’s because of my eyes.
I like my teeth.
Well she does have a beautiful set of teeth.
Thank you.
The upper set.
No la, I can’t tell.
Oh I see I see.
World peace, thank you.
My wish is to invent a pill that will allow you
to eat however much food you want
but you won’t get fat
and then you won’t get any heart or any health problems.
Thank you.
If there is one wish, I think
I wish everyone to be a little bit more happier in the world.
With positive energy or positive vibes,
people will be more tolerant of each other.
There would be no problems in this world.
Actually to be honest, human beings are the problems in this world.
Thank you.
Umm...
I didn’t.
I joined it for the $10.
Yes.
Let’s be honest,
no one wants to join this pageant.
The prize money is $10.
I can get $10 by selling curry puffs on the street.
*laughs hysterically*
Probably take the $10 and wave it to all the other contestants.
I would like to thank you guys for picking me,
because I don’t have to do work while I’m here.
$1.20 will go the uncle at my underpass.
The MRT underpass.
Xenia: That’s adorable Charmaine: And then I’ll be left with $7.80
So I got brains so I should win this pageant.
See I got brains.
$5 will go to my roast duck rice.
So I’m left with th- three -
No $2.20.
No $2.80!
It wasn't that bad la.
They are not difficult questions.
They’re questions that anyone could answer on a day to day basis.
I think it’s hard when you really try to impress somebody.
And knowing that like -
There’s $10 at stake.
Ya!
I think like what Sean talked about just now,
beauty is on the inside.
And it’s no use if Miss Universe is just a face.
If there wasn’t one of these parts right,
people will think they are stupid.
Because they are only about looks.
And I think for a beauty queen, you have to be well rounded.
Absolutely no!
I would because actions speak louder than words.
And what I can do to the universe -
You all will find out when I win this competition.
No but I feel like there are a lot more work
that is behind it that people don’t see.
People just like, ahh you beauty pageant, just like bimbo.
But there’s definitely a lot of training involved.
Like it’s not easy to just catwalk
And it’s not easy to just like deliver, a speech you know.
I will flip the table if I’m not in the top 3.
PD: The top 3...
PD: Sean Chan.
You’re not a nobody.
I’m somebody now Mum.
PD: The second person…
PD: Vanessa.
Fauzi: I am Team Vanessa all the way. Vanessa: Why am I so excited?
PD: Third person is...
Hold la, hold la!
Faster hold la!
PD: Chuan.
Oh my god are you serious?
Oh my god! It’s us! (MSN Department)
News department came through.
She’s so happy!
So unexpected.
PD: The winner is…
PD: Vanessa!
Isn’t she beautiful!
I want $10!
