That's totally TRUE...hahaha.

I’m not too sure about that. They might come off nice but they love gossip and judging behind your back!

@@kbert6398 not everyone is like this. I dont know about ur experience but definitely not same with ours

@@kbert6398 thats a very common attitude... of some people in all ethnicities, nationalities and race

@@kbert6398 it's a human nature not just filipinos

Lll

Not all are excited in the Philippines, I am one of them.

ako din di naman excited, pero kudos to her sa Filipiniana Design nya. Baka siguro pinapahalagahan nya rin talaga ang Filipino lineage nya...

@@oliverhora1821 I guess that's your problem.

@@erikmichael3493 Yes, it is my problem. Don't mention all of the Filipinos here. Wish all the best for her and her country America.

Yes sir. We definitely will root for her here in the states.

There are a lot non-pure filipinos, even in the philippines. Same with the US. Who among americans, can you really call "pure americans"? As to not being born in the philippines, there are something like 10M pinoys who live outside the PH, excluding those who are not counted for being illegal aliens. Add all that, isn't it obvious why many would claim other pinoys abroad as their own kababayan? Also, the surname gabriel is also prevalent here. It is only pronounced GAB-RIYEL - a spanish sounding name common to pinoys. So is it even hard to recognize ms. texas as pinoy? The only thing for me though is that, if the other do not recognize her ancestry, then we should not recognize her at all. Or if she is so far away from her lineage.

you bet!

I couldn't agree more.

TRUE....we are still proud of her.

she is representing the country that nurtured her and i do not see anything wrong or shameful with that. as a matter of fact, she and her family have lots to be thankful for. she will never have the same opportunities had she grown up in the Philippines. we should be happy for her and be thankful that "one Pilipino family" was able to reach their goals and dreams and become successful outside their own country.

How is she gorgeous in height to you?

@@VeNuS2910 , Miss R'Bonney Gabriel's dad, a Filipino, went to the US on a scholarship program, then, met a Texan (US citizen) who worked for an airline. That gave Miss Gabriel's opportunity to travel to 15 different countries with her parents. "Had she grown in the Philippines" ....she was not born poor!

Credit grabbers! She's represent USA not Philippines. You're so proud, yet your country's candidate always a HALF-BREED. why?? because Filipina's are ugly. 🤨

she's pretty and smart I'm happy for you miss USA filam misstexaz

Works for PC and Woke, but not for the average person. All my opportunities were taken away by greed and unfair practices and Politics.

It’s a blessing when opportunities are given but anyone who wants to succeed in life should look for and create the opportunities for themselves. No one should feel entitled to be given. It is a blessing and a privilege. But no one should expect nor demand for such opportunities from others to help them and get mad or feel victimized if such such opportunities sometimes don’t exist. We should create and be responsible for the life we want and be grateful if help is given you to help you succeed.

She just got crowned!!! Yeeeeeeeh!!

Yes Indeed😇

now shes miss universe 2022

She’s mix but pure Filipina wouldn’t be that look good😇

@@healingseeker896great combination 🥳❤️‍🩹🤗

@@healingseeker896 you racist

@@healingseeker896 ah thats your stupid opinion, go to the phils and you'll see beautiful and flawles filipina .. with out freckles on

I think Philippines has won Miss Universe before.

She's not our pride anymore it's USA her soil

@@almac9203 Ms Gloria Diaz 1969 ; Ms Margarita Moran 1973/74 Phil

@@giissa614 I think Philippines won in 2015 and 2018.

@@almac9203 yes, we have 4 Ms Universe not 2, Ms Gloria Diaz 1969, Margarita "Margie" Moran 1973 they were first 2...🇵🇭👍

Does this mean she just won Miss Universe..?

She just won MISS UNIVERSE 😃🥰

2022

She won Miss Universe! I was there in person as part of the official media. I was also the last person to ask her a question at her official press conference!❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Actually I think she would be the second Filam beauty to do so. Macel Wilson who won Miss USA 1962 is I believe a FilAm and was the first Asian American to win Miss USA.

manifested!

Unless the other states will also send a Filipino American, those that flee California and are currently jobless or sleeping in park benches would make very strong candidates because pageants love drama.

@@eduardochavacano i can see you comments everywhere. I can sense that you mother ate NEGATIVITY when she was pregnant with you? 😁

Wow If she wins Miss USA, and represent the US for Ms. UNIVERSE, The Philippines wil root for 2 candidates, she'll be an instant powerhouse since the Philippines traditionally is a Powerhouse in pageantry.

@@eduardochavacano you again, a person full of negativity..🤮

She is also eloquent, composed, smart & a dream speaker! Reminds me of MU 2018 Catriona

She is already american...was born there

@@puritaparis2906 , she's not pure American as her dad is Filipino.

We will support our Filipina queens not an American

What? We will our own candidate not her

We, Filipinos will not support her(American). But we will support an Italian.😁😂🤣

@@gardogodinez6621 yung Italian sya ang representative ng pasay sya yung nanalo pumunta sya ng Pinas para sumali at nanalo sya yan miss Texas yan pag manalo America i re represent nya hnd pilipinas so we need to support our miss universe PH🇵🇭

TWISTED THINKING. Being Filipino is NOT a race, it's a culture. It's about having one of our kind being represented in other countries, and showing the world the good stuff we're made of - that would give us both pride and honor. If you can't support her, then at least, give her the gratitude and respect she deserves.

Born and raised in the US. She represents USA period.

She's from the u.s even tho she's half Filipino how she's gonna represent Philippines i think your out of your mind

She's representing the United States of America !! Don't try to recruit her. We know a majority of the international beauty contestants of the Philippines are half Filipino, some raised in other countries, like the current one now who is half Italian. She is proud to represent Texas and the USA, and says so. BRAVA!! I'm Filipina, US citizen, and proudly rooting for her!!

@@matriksist yeah tell them! 🤣🤣

Please stop. I am ashamed reading your comment and the other comments of other filipinos. Masyado kayong madikit sa pagka pinay nya, just say congratulations thats all, no need to say sh*t things just like your comment.

She represents Texas not the Filipino community. I'm a Filipino-American.

@@miguelmendiola4088 we are glad she's a filipina representing texas☺️😏

@@miguelmendiola4088 true..texas all way...

@@miguelmendiola4088 She’ll be more elated with confidence when millions of Filipinos will chant her name while walking on the stage! That is called the Filipino power!

@@famf6234 not anymore it's USA flag will be chanted she's no longer a Filipino

Super Centrum!!

@@PritpalSingh-ys6ol she will!!

She still has to compete for miss USA and win before she can shine in Miss U

@@PritpalSingh-ys6ol I bet, she will have the chance my dear

@TitaLaGCash Why Centrum?

No arrogance

Did she spend most of her time in the Philippines or did she even once ? Just because she has Filipina blood she's automatically qualified to be Ms Philippines .

mm no

Can’t trade her, this isn’t the Olympics.

@@MRPOPOY-xl1mj Jus sanguinis (right of blood) which is the legal principle that, at birth, an individual acquires the nationality of his/her natural parent/s. The Philippines adheres to this principle, that's why she is qualified. do some research first. think before you click. lol

Proud lamb&dear Well, even Filipinos who only flip burgers in Vermount or milk cows in Kansas can become Miss Universe Philippines if they can say that they have a teaspoon of Filipino blood.

So beautiful look a like jlo

But she doesnt look asian at all so i dont think this makes her a good representation of asian community. We shouldnt idealized white features...its a bad stereotype.

@@sew_gal7340 So just because she doesn’t look the most asian she doesn’t count and doesn’t deserve support? What kind of backward mindset do you have? With you saying that, you’re pretty much only admitting that her white side is more dominant than her Asian side which is completely false. If it weren’t for her Asian side, she wouldn’t be the whole person she is today.

@@xfinity319 Yes. And i don't need your permission to have whatever mindset i need to have. Skin bleaching and worshiping of colonialist ideals is a major problem in places like the philipines and other developing countries. I wasnt assaulting who she is, im just saying as a society we need to move past the "west is superior" mindset. You have subtle racism....you need to stop

@@sew_gal7340 Subtle racism?? Are you joking? Or are you seriously idiotic? Where in my comment did it have a HINT of racism??? Tanga ka?? Nobody here wants your stupidity and toxicity. If showing support to a fellow Asian-American to you is about skin bleaching and worshipping colonialist, then you have something completely wrong with you. Ang tanga tanga mo, so toxic, nakakahiya ka!

@@sew_gal7340 What does Asian look like?

Olivia Rodrigo, Nicole Scherzinger & etc. there is plenty of others too

Dave Batista the wrestler his father is filipino

shes MISS USA 2022 now!!!

Too much Filipino Pride will seal her fate as TYG- Thank You Girls.
