Caballero Universal 2022 Finals

Postby Prozac » Fri Dec 02, 2022 12:50 pm

    

The Caballero Universal 2022 is stretching now to its last leg (and is underway at Club Teatro Luisela Diaz in
Caracas, Capital District, Venezuela). and so far the men participating did not disappoint.

The show started with a musical number and the men responded by showing their terpsichorean skills. Not bad at
all. Then everybody introduced themselves in Spanish. I was more interested in Philippines Andre Cue and how he
will fare being placed side by side with Latin counterparts (he being boyish and only 5'9" and the rest more mature
candidates and six-footers at that)

Height is might in the modeling industry. He is 5′ 9″ alright much taller than other Filipinos, but most of the time
modeling agencies are looking for models taller than 5’9″ for unknown reasons.

More musical numbers were incorporated in an almost 3-hour show, so typical of Venezuelan pageants. Even Miss
and Mr. Venezuela is guilty of this as the org makes sure they invite who's who in the Latin music scene (they made
us feel we are watching ASAP and the swimwear and the Q and A are merely intermission numbers.)

Early special award winners were:
1. Mejor Sonrisa - Fabio Gomez -Dominican Republic - Best Smile
2. Caballero Interactivo - Pablo Estrada - Spain - Interactive Gentleman
3. Mejor Cuerpo - Andre Cue - Philippines - Best Physique or Best Body
4. Mejor Amigo -Juan Matthew - Haiti - Most Friendly

Andre Cue in the swimwear competition was like the little boy in the midst of giants. He looked diminutive and
unusually small. He was the youngest as the host explained he was only 18. He looked surprised when a presenter
kiss him, and she expected a kiss in return.

In the formal wear competition, Andre's smile lit the stage, and his chiseled jawline (not to mention his dimples
were magnified tenfold as the camera zoomed in on his face. A square face is typically seen as very masculine due
to its dominating features, such as a striking, angled jawline. Alas, his height became his Achilles heel. His formal
wear was made by Ryan Chris Baylen.

More special awards:
1. Caballero Pasarela - Carlos Palacio - Nicaragua - Best in Catwalk
2. Caballero Presa - Kendall Switzenberg -USA
3. Caballero Fotogenico -Roger Molina - Cuba - Most Photogenic
4. Caballero Elegancia - Kramikkumar Yadav -India Most Elegant

The announcement of the ten finalists followed and they were:
1. Puerto Rico
2. Spain
3. Cuba
4. Mexico
5. Dominican Republic
6. Panama
7. Philippines
8. Nicaragua
9. India
10. USA

In the announcement of the ten finalists, Andre tried to speak Spanish to my surprised ... which is a good
try.

The announcement of the six finalists followed:
1. India
2. Puerto Rico
3. Cuba
4. Spain
5. USA
6. Nicaragua

And the winners are;
Fourth Runner-Up - Roger Molina Cuba
Third Runner-Up - Angel Rosado- Puerto Rico
Second Runner-Up -Kramikkumar Yadav - India -
First Runner-Up - Pablo Estrada 0 Spain
Virrey Caballero Universal 2022- Carlos Palacio - Nicaragua
Caballero Universal 2022- USA = Kendall Switzenberg

Emmanuel Manu Franco Mr. International 2022 from the Dominican Republic was one of the judges.

Caballero Universal 2021 Christian Narango Gomez of Spain and Virrey Luis Bermudez of Venezuela crowned
the winners. They looked like Petronas Twin Tower in Kuala Lumpur ... so tall and so towering.

Mister International Philippines should take the cue from there. One has to be tall to be competitive ...
not to belittle the Top Ten finish of Andre Cue. Had he been taller ... with his good looks and good physique
... we can always dream ... can't we?

One has to be tall to be competitive? Are you serious? Andre was a good representative. A lot of the guys were obviously stronger than him since this is a Latino pageant.

Enough with the boring Sam Ajdani, Kirk Bondad and John Spainhour template models who are bland vanilla who can't even talk about anything about the Philippines.

I have been singing hosanna in Andre Cue's name. As a matter of fact, this thread was written to follow him and
his journey. Actually the line "One has to be tall to be competitive ..." was uttered by a Latino who was present
at the time we watched CU finale. We believe what she said because she had been exposed to her country's selection
process of their representatives before coming to America and by Latino standards height is a plus factor. Not all
the time ... but it is an element that gave them an advantage.

Did you see last year's winners of Caballero Universal Christian Narango Gomez of Spain and Luis Bermudez of Vene-
zuela? Aside from being stunning and striking, both were leggy Towers of Power. By Filipino standards maybe being
good-looking is enough, but we are talking about Latin taste here.

If Spain was not the winner last year, this year Pablo Estrada was the tallest and the most handsome making him too
hard to ignore. He was the first runner-up.

My Puerto Rican friend even said. Definitely, Andre is more handsome than say India or Puerto Rico so what prevented
him from advancing? Could it be his height ... or his age perhaps.

And he even said this advice: in Miss International, we are sending the prototype that they wanted ... of course, we
can always send anybody ... but it is a tall order if they didn't match the stringent Japanese taste. Same with Miss
Earth. So if we feel beauty and height are Caballero Universal template ... it would be foolish while wading in their
pageant water to go against the tide or the current.
