Ibasco bested 85 other contestant in this beauty pageant that advocates the preservation of the earth. I think Ibasco has the best answer in the final Q&A though the answers were somewhat similar but Ibasco was able to construct the clearest answer.
Miss Earth - Air went to Miss Australia Nina Robertson who is half Filipino, Miss Earth - Fire was Miss Russia Lada Akimova and Miss Earth - Water was Miss Colombia Juliana Franco.
The other semifinalists in the Top 8 were contestants from Czech Republic, Netherlands, Thailand and Venezuela. The other girls making the first cut as Top 16 were the girls representing Angola, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cameroon, Guatemala, Switzerland, Tonga, USA and Vietnam.
This is the Philippines' fourth crown after the country won 2008 (Karla Henry), 2014 (Jamie Herrell) and 2015 (Angelia Ong).
I really hope this will be a good trigger of the Philippines getting more pageant crowns since almost all the pageants will be happening this month.
Congrats Karen!
