“I’m very ready. For me, it’s not naman giving up your crown, but passing it on. I’m also excited for the winners, kung ano ang magiging journey nila. It’s time for other girls to have their crown,” Shamcey told the press at the launch of this year’s Bb. Pilipinas search held at Gateway Suites last Thursday, Feb. 2.
Same pressure
Shamcey shared that she also experienced the same pressure as her predecessor Bb. Pilipinas-Universe Venus Raj, who ranked fourth in the 2010 Miss Universe.
“Last year, it was also the same thing for me. Venus ranked fourth place. Sa akin, nung time na yun, I don’t think it’s pressure. It’s inspiration,” she said.
What’s her advice to this year’s candidates?
Shamcey replied that they should be themselves and work hard, even as there is really “no formula in winning.”
No formula
“Laging sinasabi sa akin ni Venus, sasabihin ko rin sa mga ibang candidates na my experience might not be the same as theirs. There’s no formula on how to win. It’s up to yourself and be proud of yourself. Wala talagang formula,” she said.
Shamcey added: “It’s still the girls’ effort. I also believe in destiny na if it’s for you, it’s for you. But, you also have to be prepared, hard work.”
Is she now willing to enter showbiz?
“Depende po kung may offers,” Shamcey replied.
She shared that she’s more open to shows since she more comfortable talking rather than acting on TV in the movies.
“Siguro, when it comes to talking and expressing myself, pwede kong pasukan. Pero when it comes to acting, I’m not really into it,” she said.
Target: Hosting
Shamcey also revealed that Kris Aquino advised her to try hosting. The magna cum laude graduate of architecture from the University of the Philippines and a board topnotcher said that she is interested to do a show about homes and architectural designs.
“Ms. Kris Aquino told me na you need to have passion if you’re an actress. Kung wala sa loob mo, mahihirapan ka. Kase you have to be dedicated sa job mo. So sabi nya, why not try hosting daw,” Shamcey revealed.

Also present at the launch were Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. (BCPI) chair Stella Marquez Araneta and other Bb. Pilipinas title holders Dianne Necio (Bb. Pilipinas-International) and Isabella Manjon (Bb. Pilipinas Tourism Queen International).
