Beauty pageant enthusiasts were surprised that reigning Miss Universe Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach was in Bohol province on Monday. Wurtzbach arrived at the Tagbilaran Airport around 10 a.m., along with Miss Universe organizers and plus-size model Ashley Graham, backstage host of the pageant.
Unlike their visits in the cities of Baguio and Cebu, the crowd was missing when the Miss Universe candidates arrived here Thursday afternoon. This is partly because the Francisco Bangoy International Airport, where the private jets that brought the candidates from Manila landed, is far from the downtown area.
Twelve of the 86 Miss Universe candidates visited SM Seaside City Cebu at the South Road Properties (SRP) in Cebu City, on Tuesday afternoon. These were delegates from Argentina, the Bahamas, Czech Republic, Georgia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Namibia, Romania, Singapore, Slovak Republic and Venezuela.
