If rumours are to be believed, Gail Ventic who is also known as Gail Doraine Ventic has replaced Janelle Olafson as Binibinis #1. Janelle was recently eliminated from the Binibining Pilipinas 2016 contest supposedly over racy photo shoots she has done in the past.
Gail Ventic is a native of Angeles, Pampanga and studied BS Medical Technology from Angeles University Foundation. The Filipino carries a perpetual passion for singing, and wants to make a strong career in the same field. Apart from the singing passion, she loves to travel around Philipinnes.
However, the BPCI (Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc) is yet to issue a statement on the replacement update.
According Janelle Olafson the “racy photo, ” she took was for a breast cancer awareness campaign.
