Michelle Dee, naiinggit ba sa beauty pageant success ng pinsang si Winwyn Marquez?
Sumalang sa "Legit Lie Detector Test" si Miss Universe Philippines 2023 Michelle Dee para sa YouTube video ni Bea Alonzo, na in-upload niya noong Biyernes, September 9.
Isa sa mga napag-usapan dito ang relasyon ni Michelle sa kanyang pinsang si Winwyn Marquez, na itinanghal na Reina Hispanoamericana 2017.
Tanong ni Bea, "Was there a time na nagselos siya sa success ng kanyang pinsan?"
"No," ang mabilis na sagot ni Michelle na pumasa sa polygraph test.
Sundot na tanong ni Bea, "Are you guys close?"
Paliwanag ni Michelle, wala silang childhood moments together dahil lumaki siya sa Amerika. Pero naging close daw sila nang magkatrabaho sila ni Wyn sa GMA News TV lifestyle informative show na Glow Up, kung saan co-host din nila si Thia Thomalla.
Ani Michelle, "I grew up in the States so I never really got to grow up with her but the time that we did that we became close when we hosted a show together, it was Glow Up. It was a GMA show, so that's when we actually became very close cousins."
Maraming raw pagkakapareho sina Michelle at Wyn, at isa rito ang pagiging beauty queen.
Sa katunayan, humihingi raw ng advice si Michelle sa kanyang pinsan nang sumali siya sa Miss World Philippines 2019, kung saan itinanghal siyang panalo.
"It was during Glow Up, that show, that I decided to join Miss World Philippines after so in between tapings, it between shots, I would actually ask advice from her and see how her journey was and it was very helpful."
Naging malaking bahagi raw si Wyn ng kanyang pagkapanalo sa Miss World Philippines 2019 matapos itong magbigay ng isang helpful tip bago siya sumalang sa stage.
Bahagi ni Michelle, "Actually, the last person I saw, my first salang on stage for Miss World Philippines, Wnwyn was the ghost of the pageant so she went out first before I came out.
"And then I was so nervous and I couldn't see because I have contacts on and she was like, 'girl, trust me, take it off.' Tinanggal ko contacts ko like 10 seconds before I walk the stage because I'm actually legally blind in my right eye.
"So when you put in gradeless contacts, everything is really blurry. So she was like, 'the most important thing is that you know where to stop, you can see everything that's going so just take it off.'"
