Wynwyn Marquez’s background in dancing definitely came in handy as she, with fellow candidates, appeared in a Bolivian television program to show off their individual talents and charms.
Marquez, along with other pageant contestants, guested on the TV show “El Mañanero” as part of the pre-pageant activities of Reina Hispanoamericana 2017.
The country’s first-ever representative to the pageant performed the Singkil, a Muslim folk dance.
Moments later, Marquez shed her traditional costume for a latin ballroom-style dress and left the hosts and her fellow candidates in awe of her sultry dance performance.
In an Instagram post Tuesday, October 24, she thanked her fellow pageant hopefuls for helping translate the questions for her.
“Jumping from one shoot to another, guestings left and right and I’m enjoying every minute of it! Minsan struggle sa mga interviews pero ang swerte ko dahil sobrang babait lang ng candidates and they make sure may chance ako makapagsalita at tinatranslate nila yung mga tanong sa akin,” she said.
Pageant website Pageanthology 101 shared Marquez’s performance on Facebook.
The actress-turned-beauty queen is the first Filipina and Asian to compete in the 26-year-old beauty pageant celebrating Hispanic heritage and culture.
