Heavy favorite Sandra Inez Surravilla Seifert was disqualified from Bb. Pilipinas 2009 because the management discovered that she posed for FHM magazine in the past.

25-year-old Sandra Inez, born in Taiwan, is a Filipino-German registered nurse and a top model. She appeared in various tv commercials.

She can fluently speak English, German, Tagalog, French and Ilonggo. She is also learning to speak Spanish and Italian.

Sandra is a 5’8″ stunner and she’s candidate no. 13 in Bb. Pilipinas 2009. But 13 proved to be an unlucky number for her because two days before the coronation night, she received a disqualification notice from the Bb. Pilipinas management. The reason for the said disqualification is her sexy pictorial for the men’s magazine FHM last October 2007.

Too bad because pageant experts believe Sandra has “it” to end the drought of the Philippines in the Miss Universe pageant. The last time we placed in the prestigious pageant was a decade ago courtesy of Miriam Quiambao.

The coronation night of Bb. Pilipinas 2009 is happening tonight at the Araneta Coliseum.

Here’s the FHM photo of Sandra:
