Miss Philippines Earth 2018, has made all its finalists known. The Miss Philippines Earth pageant is another one of really popular pageants in the country, and a celebrated one too. Over 40 girls have been selected as the contestants from thousands of applications. These earth warriors will fight for the crown that currently belongs to Miss Earth Karen Ibasco, and a winner will be crowned at the finale of Miss Philippines Earth 2018 on 19th May 2018 at MOA Arena.
But before we the finale, it’s necessary to get to know the ladies fighting for the crown.
The representative of Taguig City is Lovely Lamptey. The beauty queen has been given the title of the Goddess of Crop and Cultivation. 22 years old, Lovely Lamptey is a Theater Performer. She stands tall at 5 feet 5 inches and measures 33 inches - 25 inches - 37 inches.
A bullying victim at a very early age, Lovely grew up shy, and introvert. Rather than spending her time outside, playing with kids her age, she would sit at home and study. It did pay off in the sense that she graduated high school very early.
A lesson that Lovely says she has learnt from her childhood, and would always stay with her, is that ‘you can never be defined but what others say or thinks of you, it is your perception of yourself that would always matter and that negative criticisms would eventually fuel you to improve and be the best version of yourself.’

Her most memorable moment is when she overcame one of her biggest fears, facing a crowd. Lovely won a pageant and overcame this fear.
She wants to be Miss Philippines Earth because she wants to infuse awareness, be a part of the environmental solution that this institution is aiming for, inspiring many people in changing their lifestyle into an eco-friendly living, and be a part of the sustainable change the planet needs.
Her advocacy is to promulgate more urban farms within cities and to inspire a greener lifestyle by #Going Green which means using green technology and combining nature and modernization together to create a harmonious urban setting.
With goals as clear as crystal, Gabrielle Camille Basiano will be walking the stage of Miss Philippines Earth 2018 on 19th May.
