T.A.R.A.
2006.11.10Last night, I was able to watch the opening episode for The Amazing Race Asia - a branch off of The Amazing Race, Asian style. There was about a minute or two that I thought to myself why I didn’t audition(?) for the race. Then again, I probably wouldn’t make it through the first leg of the race anyway.
‘Getting to know’ the contestants is always a given during these premiere episodes and so I was shown the array of, uhh, well, contestants (duh!). Then, this team flashed on screen.

Hmm, such familiar fac…holy s***! It’s that chick whose boobies bumpers I saw in a movie a few years back. She goes by the name Aubrey Sandel in this show. Whoa! I hope they make the Philippines proud this time and not be stereotyped as beauty-but-no-brains. Good luck.
Well, should those beautiful-slash-erotic-slash-vain women fail, there’s always another team to root for.

The Lopez team (Jeena to Malaysian cab driver: You drive fast ha!?. Pinoy talaga). Ahhh, Pinoys are always so competitive. I just hope that the crab mentality trait we all (Pinoys) are associated with be set aside in this one.
Go Team(s) Philippines!!! Mabuhay Pilipinas! Whatever…hehehe.
Photos taken from the website linked in the The Amazing Race Asia link in the post. Go figure.

Saw that episode, too, though I wasn’t able to see it from the start. :) In TAR I can choose which team to root for, but in TARA I have to root for Team Philippines. Hehe… The Philippine beauties fared well in the first leg, or at least better than I had expected. Team Lopez, though, looked fit and I was kinda hoping they’ll win the first leg.

carlmans: Yup, the Philippine beauties did fare well on the first leg.
snglguy: I believe the title of the movie where I saw her boobies was Prosti. I’m not sure though, that was a really long time ago.
almaritchel: I hope one of the two Philippine teams win.
nobe: Uhmmm…okay.
