CGiii Comment

The film tells a funny story about three fantastic and fearless female friends. Karen (Joyce Jimenez) is the smart and fashionable one among the three. She works for a girls magazine, and later catches her boyfriend, Artie (Rafael Rosell), in bed with another woman, Greta (Jenny Miller). Love (Assunta De Rossi) is the cousin of Karen. She works in the cosmetics section of a department store, and dreams of becoming a beauty queen someday, thus, making her a regular contestant of beauty competitions. Yolly (Ai Ai de las Alas) is the businesswoman of the group. She is into the buy and sell business, wherein she buys clothes from ukay-ukay only to sell them as brand new and original.

The story runs when Love joins the Diyosa ng Kagandahan 2003 contest, where they find out that her roommate, Greta, is the new girlfriend of Karen's philandering boyfriend, Artie, and the kinakapatid of Yolly's boyfriend policeman, SPO Pablito (Carlos Agassi), who dumped her. They also see this girl cuddling up with one of the judges of the contest, George Collins (Carlo Maceda). Karen, Love and Yolly tire out all their efforts for Love to win the contest and teach their ex-boyfriends a valuable lesson.
