Olivia Tisha de Carlos Silang (born November 6, 1975), more popularly known as Tisha Silang, was the Binibining Pilipinas Universe titleholder in 1998. She became a TV host and businesswoman later in her career. In the third season of The Amazing Race Asia, she partnered with her boyfriend Geoff Rodriguez and won 2nd place.
In 1998, Tisha was crowned as Binibining Pilipinas Universe titleholder. However, she resigned and gave up her crown because of questions on her citizenship.[2][3] The Binibining Pilipinas Charities which managed the contest had already earlier required that all winners must be holders of Philippine passport.[4] Jewel May Lobaton, the first runner-up, was selected as the Philippines' representative in the Miss Universe 1998 pageant that was held in Honolulu, Hawaii.[5]

After the Binibining Pilipinas, Tisha worked as a TV personality in several shows of GMA Network. She was included in the morning news and talk show Mornings @ GMA,[3] which was shown every morning. She also had some other hosting jobs and a modeling career.
