Confirmed: Kisses Delavin, Maureen Wroblewitz among Top 100 vying for Miss Universe Philippines crown
It’s official! Actress Kisses Delavin and Asia’s Next Top Model Season 5 winner Maureen Wroblewitz are among the top 100 beauties in the running for the Miss Universe Philippines 2021 crown.
The official list of Miss Universe Philippines 2021 candidates was posted on the official MUP Facebook page on Monday, July 19. Delavin and Wroblewitz are among the last batch of candidates who were revealed.
The Masbate-born Delavin is no stranger to beauty pageants, as she won the Miss Teen Masbate 2013 and Miss Kaogma 2016 crowns before entering showbiz.
The actress also revealed in a 2018 interview with ABS-CBN News that she’s open to joining national pageants.
Filipina-German Wroblewitz is best known for being the first Filipina to win Asia’s Next Top Model in 2017. She also had a short hosting stint on the GMA-7 noontime show Eat Bulaga.
During a “Star Magic” press conference in June 2021, Wroblewitz admitted that she “always considered joining pageants.”
Among the familiar faces in the top 100 include returning Miss Universe Philippines 2020 candidate Christelle Abello, Miss Globe 2019 second runner-up Leren Bautista, and Miss Supranational 2018 first runner-up Katrina Dimaranan.
The top 100 candidates will compete in the next round of eliminations, through various preliminary rounds, to determine the final 30.
The final 30 will then compete in the coronation night on Sept. 25 in a yet-to-be-announced venue.
