    Thoughout the competition, Shamcey was among the top placers in NBC.com's Miss Universe fan voting poll.

    Last year, Ma. Venus Raj was named Miss Universe fourth runner-up.

      Yuck, there is nothing Filipino characteristics in shamcey supsup, Filipinos are always using mestizos to go to contest they don't show what the real filipino is, the characteristics of a real Filipino is Short, snub nose(Not a nose with high bridge or matangos), and etc.. The only filipino characteristics that shamcey has is tan skin & culture or way of living, filipinos always blame other races for their own demise

      Just as I thought, Ms Lea Salonga finally admitted that she did not vote for Shamcey to win.If it were because she honestly thought that she was not deserving of a higher ranking,much less win the crown,then I respect her decision.If it were for "delicadeza",then I would say that it's a misplaced sense of delicadeza for nobody would have complained if she voted for Shamcey to win because agreeably,Shamcey stood head and shoulders above the other 4 finalists.What bothers me,and i hope not, is if it was done out of crab mentality.That for me would be unforgivable. What if a more favorable vote from Lea could have turned the tide for Shamcey.Imagine the boost it would give our country's ailing tourism industry as well the morale of our people.Just thinking out loud and no intention to foment hatred here.

        It's not our of crab mentality, Leah's decision is right, Miss Angola deserves to win...An honorable man/woman accepts defeat...

        as we had expected, Lea Salonga as ever, wanted to shine out not only here in the Philippines but throughout the world. that snobbish "colonial" mentality woman never want that another Filipina will shine out with her. no wonder why we never liked her !!

      Oprah Winfrey say's via NBC News

      "I have reservations with the results. If the only basis is the Q and A portion, after having been trimmed down to 5, Ms. Philippines deserved to win. What made her different from the rest is that she had no seconds to rethink of her answer as she had no interpreter to break the ice. The rest had their interpreters and having breaks on seconds to think about their answers. Hands down, Ms. Philippines answered straight to the point."

        naks bilib pala si oprah kay supsup:) tama naman, yun din ang tingin ko kasi after ng tanong, sagot agad pero maganda pa rin ang sagot nya pero ung iba, daming time magisip dahil may interpreter e. after magtanong ng judge, kita naman ilang seconds pa nagiisip ung interpreter bago sabihin sa dialect ng contestant. after makapagtranslate, isip pa si candidate bago sumagot.

      I think Miss Philippines didn't won the pageant it's because of Ms. Lea Salonga question to Miss Angola (about her physical appearance). HUHUHUHUHU! I FEEL SO SAD! Parang may pabor pabor kasi.
      ;-(

      Congrats Shamcey. You should have placed higher or be the Miss universe. If you will listen to Miss Angola's answer. Copy Cat . She just repeat what other contestant says.
      Just watch it again and u will agree. May be Miss Angola is lucky that time that's why she won. Swerte Swerte lang.

      its everybody's game, Fair naman cguro kasi beforehand lahat may option gumamit nang interpreter and shamcey choose to speak english.. Its not a cheating.. shamcey can make it to 1st runner up but i think Angola is really good, the way she answer the question with charm and confidence and Angola's interpreter is really smart and energetic.. Gamit nalang tau next year nang interpreter, para ang selection of words bagay talaga

      MISS UNIVERSE BEAUTY CONTEST TEACHES THE WORLD HOW TO CHEAT

      The world found that Miss Angola was very fluent in the English language. The world knows she could answer the question straight to the point from judge Miss Lea Salonga but prefer her interpreter to ask question to her in their language where she could answer by beating around the bush before she could give her answer and this is a form of CHEATING.

      Why do she need an interpreter? The world understand that Miss Angola wants to buy time so she could think and organize and could be able to give the best answer for the question. Then this is a form of cheat with the approval of Miss Universe Organizer.

      The world also don’t know if the interpreter give her clue on what to say and this is a form of mistrust due to cheating observed?

      If Miss Angola answered the question directly from the judge then this cheating will be prevented and credibility on her winning could be achieved.
