Switching camps is nothing new in local pageantry. And I don’t see major issues in it for as long as the individuals involved went through the right process of asking permission from the camp to be left in favor of a new one. Just like in the TV network wars, the practice of talents seeking greener pasture somewhere else should no longer be a big professional problem. Once contracts have been served, they should be free to go where the offers are more lucrative or the projects a sustenance of income.

Take for example third-time joiner Toni Alyessa Hipolito (previously of Aces & Queens) and MWP2012 4th Princess Brenna Cassandra Gamboa (previously of Kagandahang Flores). Just in time for preparations prior to Bb. Pilipinas 2015 screenings, these two ladies decided that it was high time to move on, considering that this edition should be their last eligible years to participate. Permissions were properly granted, albeit with a heavy heart which is just expected.

And now that they are in the arms of handlers who were previously on the other side of the fence, my only wish is for them to find what they are looking for.

Toni now for KF. Brenna now for A&Q.

Best of luck to you, ladies! :-)
