Pinoys in Pageants: 13 Major Sucesses in 2013—Philippines Hailed Country of the Year

Posted on December 19, 2013 | 3:56 PM

The beauty kings and queens of the year 2013 from the PhilippinesThe year 2013 has been a very successful one for the Philippines in the field of beauty pageants and now considered the best year the country has ever had in terms of pageantry. Without any doubt, the Philippines is country of the year when it comes to beauty competitions.

This year, our representatives to both male and female pageants did very well, bringing home five crowns, six runner-up trophies, and two semifinals honors in major pageants as well as in a handful of other pageants overseas. A history was also made this year as the Philippines became the first and only country in the world to have won all six major titles—Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss Earth, Miss International, Miss Supranational and Miss Tourism Queen International.
Here's a run-down of the beauty kings and queens that made the Philippines proud in 2013:


Megan Young


1. Megan Young, winner, 63rd Miss World
Megan made history as the very first Filipina to win the Miss World crown which has been elusive to a Filipina for the past six decades. Megan, who is the favorite to win the title, bested over 120 delegates all over the world at the 63rd edition of the pageant held on September 28 in Bali, Indonesia.  




Bea Rose Santiago


2. Bea Rose Santiago, winner, 53rd Miss International
Bea Rose is the fifth Filipina to win the title of Miss International. The Pinay beauty from Masbate beat 66 others in the finals held on December 17 in Tokyo, Japan. Bea’s success in Miss International finally sealed the Philippines’ status as country of the year 2013 in world pageantry.




Mutya Datul


3. Mutya Datul, winner, 5th Miss Supranational
Mutya started the country’s winning streak in international pageants this year with her victory in the Miss Supranational pageant held on September 6 in Minsk, Belarus. The Filipina is the first Asian to win the 5-year-old grand slam pageant. The beauty from Santa Maria, Isabela also won the Miss Personality award

4. Amber Delos Reyes, winner, Miss Teen Expoworld Universe
The 14-year-old Amber was crowned Miss Teen Expoworld Universe 2013 at a pageant held in Guatemala last November 21. The pageant is part of Guatemala’s Festival de Belleza ExpoWorld 2013, which also includes six other beauty contests. She also won Miss Photogenic.

Marisse, a 19-year-old management senior from San Beda College, beat other student-delegates across Asia at the Miss Campus World 2013-14 which promotes student empowerment. The pageant was held on December 5 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.




William De Dios


6. Roland William De Dios, first runner up, Mister Campus World

Alvin De Joya


7. Alvin De Joya, second runner up, ATV Mr. Asia
Former Mr. Philippines World 2010, Alvin De Joya, secured a 2nd runner up placement at the Asia Television Limited Mr. Asia Contest 2013 held last November 15 in Hong Kong. Zhong Hao of China emerged as the winner.




Ariella Arida


8. Ariella Arida, third runner up, 62nd Miss Universe
Ara may not have won the most-coveted Miss Universe crown but her exemplary performance in 62nd edition of the pageant earned her another top 5 placement for the Philippines, duplicating Shamcey Supsup’s 3rd runner up finish in 2011. Gabriela Isler of Venezuela took home the crown.




Ali Forbes


9. Annalie Forbes, third runner up, 1st Miss Grand International
Bb. Pilipinas 2012 2nd runner up Ali Forbes was able to clinch a third runner up placement the at the inaugural Miss Grand International pageant held November 19 in Bangkok, Thailand. Miss Puerto Rico, Janelee Chaparro won the crown.

After winning Mutya ng Pilipinas Asia Pacific International, Koreen Medina earned her ticket to the 2013 Miss Intercontinental pageant held December 14 in Magdeburg, Germany. The Star Magic talent won 3rd runner up and was hailed Queen of Asia and Oceania.




Gil Wagas


11. Gil Wagas, fourth runner up, 8th Mister International
This Cebuano model has once again proven that Filipinos are also a force to reckon with when it comes to male pageants. Gil’s 4th runner up finish in Mister International 2013 held in Jakarta, Indonesia is the Philippines best placement in the pageant’s history while eventual winner, Jose Anmer Paredes of Venezuela also made history as his country’s first winner.




Angelee Delos Reyes


12. Angelee Delos Reyes, Top 8, 13th Miss Earth
Angelee is one of the early favorites to win the Miss Earth 2013 crown but did not snatch even an elemental crown, just like her predecessors. This pageant veteran, however, managed to slip into the Top 8 of the pageant held December 7 in Manila, Philippines. Miss Venezuela, Alyz Henrich bagged the second Miss Earth title for her country.




Cindy Miranda


13. Cindy Miranda, Top 10, 8th Miss Tourism Queen International
Cindy fortunately had the chance to represent the Philippines abroad in the Miss Tourism Queen International 2013 after the pageant was cancelled the year before. She entered the top 10 of the said pageant while Latvia’s Alisa Miskovska was hailed winner.


Also welcome additions to the list is the recent first runner up finish of Christine Paula Love Bernasor in the Miss Scuba International 2013 held in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia last December 21 and the Top 15 placement of Czarina Rosales in Miss Asia Pacific World held in South Korea last October.
