It is a walk back in time tonight in "The Debutante" as the
remaining girls take a tour in the historic Intramuros to
showcase their sense of pride and heritage as true Filipinas.
However, it will not be a leisurely sightseeing for the girls
for they need to endure the summer heat while listening
attentively and performing the tasks assigned to them.
To complete the total Filipina look, the girls will be asked
to wear a Filipiniana or a Terno, wherein they need to choose
the right dress for them and endure the fabric under the heat of
the unforgiving sun. Their bakya or wooden slipper will
also add to their suffering as they need to wear these all the
time during the tour.
The girls will be taking a brief tour and rundown of history
with the very animated and famous Carlos Celdran – with his
trademark non-stop and fast talking sure to challenge the girls
to be more attentive.
But the main challenge, however, is for the girls to become
tour guides themselves. They will be grouped into pairs and
together, they must look for some foreign tourists in the area
whom they can tour around and give a memorable tour. They need
to rely on their basic knowledge about the Philippines and from
what they will learn from Carlos.
During the entire day, the girls will be observed and judged
by Carlos and Abby Arenas. Aside from giving her advice and
comments, Abby will be with the girls most of the time to
support them like a big sister. What the girls don’t know is
that Abby will be taking notes even during off-challenges.
Find out tonight who among the remaining girls will shine in
this challenge. "The Debutante" airs every Monday, 7:15 p.m. on
Q-11.
