Janina San Miguel quits as Bb Pilipinas-World


MANILA, Philippines - Beauty queen Janina San Miguel has resigned as the country’s official representative to the 2008 Miss World beauty pageant. A statement from the Binibining Pilipinas Charities Inc. (BPCI) said San Miguel cited as reason for her decision the recent death of his grandfather. “The untimely demise of her grandfather, among other personal reasons, has caused her undue stress, thus hindering her from fulfilling her duties for the said title," the BPCI statement read. “BPCI wishes to express its gratitude to Ms. San Miguel for this act of graciousness and concern for the country. They also wish her well in her future endeavors," it added. In accordance with BCPI’s rules and regulations, 1st Runner-Up Danielle Castaño will replace San Miguel as the official Philippine representative who will vie for the Ms. World 2008 plum in Johannesburg. - GMANews.TV
