[@mary-otampon6982]

I love Yllana Marie Aduana complete package beautiful sexy and intelligent with a flawless skin.

[@angelicaloresto1559]

Mag babalik loob na naman akonsa MUPH and hopefully MU BECAUSE of Yllana. I will be cheering and voting and supporting her all the way 🇵🇭🤩💓👏

[@hoyjakey016]

your review to yllana is super true very well said.

[@laczsui882]

Support Yllana for MU international stage 👑

[@ejramos8246]

Me too I want her to miss u. ❤❤.favs also

[@iceceestudio]

8:24 Exactly...Yana is already a smart woman and that's undebatable. Luis is right, when we speak, we have to make sure that we are being understood by the listeners from all walks of life. It's not about big and fancy words, it's the thought and impactful message she wants to convey. Good luck, Yana! ❤

[@mary-otampon6982]

I'm from Iloilo City but I'm rooting for Yllana Marie Aduana.

[@dan.vincii]

Great points you’ve shared about the areas Yana needs to improve on to secure the MUPH 2025 title. Yana will no doubt do her assignment and will give a top-tier show. Support to her!

[@MjYosh]

Kinda glad Maureen isn’t joining this year because Yllana is THE ONE for me right now.

[@KianCalixtro]

Ulol

[@MarzanEspa]

Baka next year Cj and Maureen

[@angelicaloresto1559]

Same here… ang hirap pumili kung sumali din si Maureen

[@jonathanpalmes8859]

Si Bohol ang lakas din

[@sienong4484]

100% Agree 🌸

[@eMCizzle1]

It's going to be exciting with Yllana competing, and Katrina Llegado's return as MUP Taguig.

[@asmrjackunboxinggames4328]

Even her NAME is so ICONIC! YLLANA ADUANA She's a BRAND HERSELF like CATRIONA GRAY & PIA WURTZBACH

[@SweeetClarissa]

I will be watching the Miss Universe Philippines bc I know she will win and will make it to the top and snatch the crown for Miss universe 2025!

[@Andre.1966]

My goodness, she has a good figure! Perfectly proportioned. If she can speak as well as she looks, she's a winner.

[@OpalShowcasingVocals]

Oh, she's a deadly speaker. I just want her to notch it down with her use of words. She uses a lot of highfalutin words which makes sense because she is in the field of science. Her weaknesses are not really major. I think she needs to perform naturally with fluidity and without too many movements. Her facial expressions should also be fluid and natural. When it comes to styling, she has a good styling but I hope she won't use contact lenses because they are distracting. Nonetheless she can still improve as these are minor issues. I'd say Winwyn is a natural performer on stage but I don't think she can speak like Yllana.

[@renejaspe8112]

Rooting for her

[@SkylaPitharoulis]

i love her, not just beauty but brain too..❤❤❤

[@celinegarcia4158]

Wow. So forthright with that statement. Picking Yllana is probably a no brainer but also rubbing my hands in anticipation who else is joining Luis? You're always in the know. Any lady serious about pageants should subscribe to you. You're all sense & sensibility. And l totally agree with what you said. Being too verbose will boomerang & do you wrong. That's one big reason why l love listening to you. You KISS Luis & that's effective communication skills right there.

[@thewebsterschannel9995]

You got this right she just needs to know when to stop n end in a high note 🎉she will conquer if she follows ur concern

[@joshuaramirez2225]

I love love yllana aduana for MU this year 2025 shes gonna be an international MU

[@ElmerMonderin]

More of her ! 😍

[@pj.silverio]

She’s the epitome of a perfect beauty Queen, beautiful and sexy outside, Intelligent with kind inside.

[@hualian5339]

i love your set up now Luis just full commentary as if we are all just talking in a group chatting and having a discussion. hope you do it too to some of your topics in interest.

[@agathonytan6695]

Ohhhh so excited 😊🎉❤

[@basureronglaboy]

Yllana will be the face of MISS U PH this 2025.

[@edilbertosabandeja2769]

Miss Earth 2024 coronation

[@LakwatserongJM]

On point 👍

[@jeiff5264]

One thing I'm afraid of miss Yana is she might end up runners up❤❤

[@Vinalynn2023]

I want her to win. Gusto ko makita sya sa Miss U stage na makipagbardagulan sa mga rampadorang Latina. She has it all na talaga, hope the stars will align for her.

[@Nadineauron]

Go yllana Marie Aduana❤

[@marlonsalazar602]

ang saya q kc sasali xa ulit sa beauty pageant.....makikita q n xa ulit...sana manalo ka

[@AcremCass]

Yllana Marie has all what it takes to be the next Miss Universe 2025.❤❤❤

[@meteorgarden199]

Her answer in ME is so technical. Enough of general knowledge. Go Yllana

[@rogerquan5240]

Wow, love your feedback Luis. Always so analytical and diplomatic. Whilst I don't know much about her. Good luck to her. I guess when it comes to being so well known in the industry and having entered so many competitions, it appears that a lot of people know her credentials. In the corporate world they often say that that candidate is "over-qualified". I am not sure if this is such a thing in this industry? But let see how things play out.

[@nganga4999]

Yllana for the crown ❤

[@nikkoadeser9524]

everything is on point. this yr is another blood bath competition. cant wait

[@victormejia888]

Goodluck to Yllana we know that MUP likes the underdog Queens to win. Honest opinion only ty

[@ayocasaljayopeniano]

Salamt summarize sya

[@marivicgabrielakatsuka8922]

Luis Portelles is the only pageant vlogger who really makes sense and is always honest with his thoughts-so watching him is not a waste of time.

[@joshuaramirez2225]

Also I love Luis pageantly vlogger

[@ahmedquiballo1990]

I'm supporting Yllana Marie Aduana for miss Universe Philippines.I'm sure she will give a good fight.

[@PAGEANTSPOTLIGHT-t4o]

this is what I waiting for, your reaction video about this one.

[@soledadcalanada4916]

Hello Luis..Godbless.❤

[@renatocastro3267]

I agree with you with the communication skills of Yllana. Effectiveness of communication and intelligence is not measured with so complicated or technical words. Yllana is intelligent and its a fact the effectiveness of communication and intelligence is now measured on how she effectively convey the message to all most specially to those who are not so blessed with intelligence or language Yllana use. And I also hope that Yllana will take it positively, coz if she does, sure crown for her

[@lidsc5100]

Exactly! ❤

[@NadinealexisLacson]

I love yllana Kasi Yung ideas nya s pag explained pra syang extemporenous s school bagay s kanya sumalu dya s miss universe KSI kahit msg explain sy Ng malalim n ideas pwidi Yan at Ganda Ng kamyang content s pag explained

[@skyhart9926]

mas prefer ko na hindi siya masyadong mala-academic mag-answer. iwasan ang highfalutin language.

[@danielito3766]

Yllana is our BEST rep in M.U

[@saritamohantysingh6356]

Hi, sending lot's of love from India. Big fan man. Just a request, can you make a video about the money and prizes expected in male pageants (Mister Supranational, Mr. World, Mr. International, etc.), just like the video you made for female pageantry? Thank You.

[@LuisPortelles]

I love the idea! I’ll definitely look into it. Big hug all the way from Canada

[@OliverRojas-h3d]

Me to yllana is my idol

[@Mimi-sb4ex]

Yllana should be in MGI Best shot for the crown 👑

[@eMCizzle1]

I'm excited, though I think she'd be equally great for MGI Philippines. I think she needs steer away that "MGI Look" and work on being (and looking) more graceful/classy.

[@MarisCacayan]

Yllana is the one to beat! I like those newcomers too but they are lack of confidence and conviction when they speak. I love candidates that have no template answers. Spontaniety in talking is the key.And that's Yllana.Very spontaneous. Rehearsed answers are kinda off .

[@tagacbuko]

A smart woman

[@jvbright3065]

top 3, she is a threat to the front runners but not a sure win, some of her answers are too good to be true.

[@janjosie177]

She's total package

[@bernadetteoneill7014]

Hope she takes the MU Phils crown this year Luis then off to MU stage.👑 👸 🇵🇭

[@aliciaalicia1130]

Sa talino at gsling niya.. Sure win na yan sa MUPH. 2025

[@DavidSantos-q1c]

Will you be watching MUPH25 live Luis???

[@badseyer13]

Whoever between yllana and wynwin i dont mind couz im preety sure instant top10 in MU

[@aquamarine7705]

Dont underestimate the NEWBIES they are all Amazing

[@purehappiness265]

3 representatives from Laguna

[@skyhart9926]

magaling at maganda si Yllana. Pero sana lang tone down niya ang highfalutin language niya. Also focus less on gimmicks. more on the causes she believes in and better natural communication, hindi yung masyadong pabibo na mala-thesis highfalutin mag-answer sa Q&A.

[@ANGsplendor]

Hi Luis, which vlog camera are you using? You look so perfect and fresh in this vlog.

[@Mimi-sb4ex]

For me Pauleen should be in miss universe

[@doloresyorks8797]

Hi Luis from Calgary Alberta

[@arnoldnaval8842]

lets see… w the faith of returning queens on MUPH ..

[@monstercrave615]

True Luis, we need a reelatable queen. Her over confidence and not concise thoughts will surely complicate things and her fate to snatch the MUP crown...

[@carey18ph]

I like her. We had non-veteran winner last year so the Org might select a seasoned queen this time.

[@allanada8878]

Sana hinde muna sumali si wynwin gusto ko talaga makita si yllana mag miss Universe at si wynwin din😢

[@ArenMerck]

Yllana should back out now. She is more suited for MGI because of her looks, moves, and attitude on the stage. Miss Laguna Eloisa will be the MUP 2025. She has a lot of potential. 5'10' tall, long limbs, great body, gorgeous face, perfect shoulders and neck, elegant, great pasarela, and charming smile. A psychology graduate and international model..which means she knows how to talk and walk

[@teamooti]

Ano ngayon

[@InfiniteGoodness]

Oh my God Luis, is that body, is that Yllana's body for real!??? Oh my God the hips and the waistline, my God it's a killer like an hourglass and she is indeed beautiful and easy to get along with. My gosh I can't wait for you to cover all of it from start to finish. The 2025 MissU candidates are all frontrunners, very very sttong. So hard to pick. That one who just previously won Miss Laguna, my gosh their director was able to break the code of MissU Baguio hidden strategies and techniques. MissU Laguna Jaoud is another frontrunner. My gosh so hard to pickm

[@ericafigueroa2296]

First!❤️‍🔥

[@AsianBoyTV]

THERE IS NO MORE HYPE OR INTEREST ANYMORE... WE ALL KNOW THE WINNER FOR 2025 WILL BE ANOTHER DARK HORSE. PHILIPPINES TRIED IT FOR 2024 AND WE ALL KNOW HOW THAT WENT.

[@janjosie177]

Total package

[@RaquleArcega.0915]

I was disappointed when she did not win Miss Earth 😢

[@DAN-lo7fz]

I thought Peepees keep saying MU is a cooking show. What’s with this obsession and desperation for winning this “cooking show”??? Very very disingenuous people and soooooore looooosers. They cannot stop insulting other contestants and crying foul whenever they lose.

[@NongJerome]

Tapos napunta sa Cookmo ano? Eh ang hinahanap nila do'n mukhang paa at hindi maboka, kasi "we don't talk, we walk" daw HAHAHAHA But this is really interesting. Will it be a frontrunner like Yllana this year or dark horse na naman? Feeling ko rin kasi sasayangin lang siya ni Halu. Hindi pa tayo mananalo anytime soon, not under the current owners.

[@KalingapRabOfficiaI]

I LOVE YOUR ADVICE LUIS. YOU ROBBED FILIPINO HEARTS AGAIN. TSSSKK i still remember your story from the last vlog haha you were robbed in the Philippines.?

[@Shironggo]

Wyn Wyn for me. Very beauty-queen marerial. Yllana is so much hype. She's so much bold, too much showing of skin, too much sexy moves. She's more of a sexy actress for me

[@renejaspe8112]

Yes Luis I already saw the 5fth crown in her head haha

[@anlim4066]

❤❤❤ HER. HOPE SHE WILL NOT BRING PLATE AND TARANTULA

[@Fuldarky]

Miss earth Australia also join and represent miss universe Australia i think 😅

[@SamRosalin-or2zm]

Mas exciting ako sa bardagulan sa MUPH 2025 keysa sa MU 2025 hanggat andyan c halu ewan kulang mananalo p ang pins kahit alam nmn natin na malakas ang kndidata n pinapadala ntin😂

[@LizCvss]

Hirap kaaway si yllana kc need mo pang mag search sa google ng mga words nya

[@skyhart9926]

she needs to tone down highfalutin terminologies. parang mala-college thesis siyang sumagot. nababawasan yung sincerity ng sagot niya when she uses highfalutin words. she needs to remember she’s competing in a pageant, not defending a college thesis.

[@basureronglaboy]

Mabobo ako kapag siya ang kausap ko sa English! Potek na iyan... well versed talaga siya. Ang choices of words niya, nakakapilay. Hahahaha.

[@mosesjoshuaatega8437]

I wanted her for MISS GRAND.... not too strong for a Miss Universe crown, the highest will be a runner-up again.....

[@ohkusinaph1404]

I agree with you.

[@hernandoling5661]

I like her too.. but my no.1 list Miss Bohol

[@arturomisagrande920]

Yllana is not the prototype of MU in this era of Halu, and the more her way of speaking which is more of a trick for a fancy words in collaboration with beating around the bush in rapid firing of words to sound like having the fluency in English language but in reality without concrete ideas to relay to the listeners. Filipino fans can be bluff but she cannot fool the native English speakers not Halu nor Raul. BUT, if her beauty would trigger or ignite Raul's carnal desire, where she would be summoned directly to his office and not the MU2025 pageant finals venue, then she is a sure winner. Besides, I believe the so called Europe-Africa nations win to promote MU in those area. So Philippines, goodbye if the franchise holder is not good in the flesh market.✌️

[@vicfortela]

yes ,agree esp she is not the prototype of what osmel, rocha an jkn are looking for

[@mary-otampon6982]

The next MUPH complete package beautiful sexy and intelligent with a flawless skin.

[@bluewolf4789]

I think yllana's target crown is cosmo not universe😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Macbasil]

Luis bebeh are you ever gonna go home here again?

[@inthenow6701]

Ylanna is like chatgpt very rehearsed answering not natural.

[@vicfortela]

yllana is very pretty but will she pass the taste of osmel, mr rocha and jkn?..i dont think so because her beauty is chaneling indochinese like viet,thai or cambodia..thailand can easily find someone prettier if they send esp a mestiza..the likes of tyra goldman, eloisa jaoud, rowena ortega,miss sindangan have a more universal beauty and these girls are taller

[@Ram-q5q]

It will be another heartbreak again if a newbie takes the crown.
