Miss Philippines Air 2014 Diane Carmela Querrer (Photo credit: Melvin Sia)
Diane Carmela Querrer was personally devastated when – due to actual on-the-spot height measurement – she was disqualified from Bb. Pilipinas 2014 less than 24 hours after the forty (40) Official Candidates (which originally included her) were announced. But whan can she do? There were strict rules to be followed and she got the axe as fast as she received a rose for inclusion.
From that point, she took stock of her remaining options. At 25, she had limited pageant routes to take. So from Bb. Pilipinas, she immediately moved to Miss Philippines Earth where she was received as an Official Candidate without issues about how tall she is. The jump from Aces & Queens to KF was also made.
And last night, she achieved the peak of her beauty contest-joining career when she did well in the final Q&A and sealed a Top 5 finish that even placed her so close to the big title by finishing Miss Philippines Air 2014 or 1st Runner-Up if we are to arrange the ranks based on the importance of honor.
Diane must be happy and relieved that she can finally put a sparkling finish to her quest for a crown. 2nd in a field of 49 is no mean achievement. And she is more than ready to serve as the country’s (clean) Air Ambassador for 2014. ;-)
