WATCH: Meet the Bb. Pilipinas 2014 candidates

The 40 candidates of Bb. Pilipinas 2014 were officially presented to the public in a glittery media presentation at the Sofitel Philippine Plaza Manila. The beauty pageant contestants paraded before the audience in swimsuits in bright summer colors. Pageant observers noted that this year's batch of candidates are more curvaceous compared to the slimmer candidates from previous batches such as Ara Arida, Venus Raj and Shamcey Supsup. Organizers said anyone of the 40 candidates can cinch the coveted titles. For the full story, watch Mario Dumaual's report on TV Patrol, Feb. 19, 2014 beginning 6:30pm.
