Fresh from the live-streamed finals at the Shinagawa Prince Hall in Tokyo, a new Miss International has been crowned and she is none other than our very own Bea Rose Santiago! She is now the country’s 5th Miss International. And the whole country is rejoicing as she dedicated the win to all Filipinos during her first interview after the announcement.
She defeated 66 other contenders for the title and will now be the proud wearer of the Mikimoto crown. Her court includes 1st Runner-Up Nathalie den Dekker of the Netherlands and 2nd Runner-Up Casey Radley of New Zealand. All three ladies happen to be the best of friends in Tokyo during the entirety of the pageant.
The delegates from Hungary and Colombia completed the Top 5.
Special awardees include New Zealand for Miss Friendship, Macau for Miss Internet, Aruba for Miss National Costume and Lithuania for Miss Photogenic.
Congratulations and Mabuhay Ka, Bea Rose Santiago! Mission accomplished!
Our Christmas in the Philippines will be the merriest!
