Career
editIn 1973, the 23rd annual Miss World pageant was held at the Royal Albert Hall in England. Fifty four delegates vied for the crown, with Miss United States Marjorie Wallace emerging as the winner and 16-year-old Pascual as first runner-up. However, Wallace had to be fired from her duties as Miss World; pageant organizers extended an offer to Pascual to carry out the duties of Miss World for the remainder of the year without being officially granted the title; Pascual had already signed a movie contract and turned down the Miss World offer, which was then accepted by second runner-up Miss Jamaica Patsy Yuen.[1]
She did movies at age 18, playing lead roles with Fernando Poe, Jr. in Ang Pangalan: Mediavillo (1974), and Ramon Zamora in The Game Of Death (1974) and The Dragon Force Connection (1974). She starred also in Mission: Get The Mastermind (1975) with Roberto Gonzales, The Exit (1975) with Tony Ferrer, and Golden Chaku with Rey Malonzo.

She hosts a long-running radio show on DWIZ 882 called Echoes of the Heart, where she does radio counselling on the matters of love and life. She is also an artist, her paintings became part of exhibits and were sold both in the Philippines and abroad.[2]
