Manila eyed to host Miss Universe anew





Pageant fanatics say that Miss Philippines Universe 2017 Rachel Peters has a strong chance of replicating Pia Wurtzbach’s success as the country’s third Miss Universe. But what if the Miss Universe pageant is held in the country again, will her being a hometown girl solidify her chances?
That’s an interesting question to answer since Department of Tourism (DOT) chair Wanda Teo revealed that the country has been offered the hosting rights to the next edition of the Miss Universe pageant this November.

According to Teo, the organizers were happy with the event that was held in Philippines in January, when Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach crowned France’s Iris Mittenaere. The pageant, she said, even overshadowed the pre-events of the recent Super Bowl, which is one of the biggest sporting events in the US.
If the Philippines does host the pageant again, Teo said that they want the DOT to have more control over the event and, as before, they would have to look for sponsors to shoulder the costs.
