Thirty-eight (38) confidently beautiful women from different parts of the country vied for the Miss Universe Philippines 2023 crown. The MUPH’s coronation night was held on Saturday, May 13, at the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City.
The event commenced with a simple production number, with dancers waving orange cloth banners and dashing lads appearing onstage as the candidates paraded in black ensembles in various silhouettes and busted some of their hidden grooves. They were divided into two batches and were introduced one-by-one through their pre-recorded voiceovers.
It was hosted by Asia’s Multimedia Star Alden Richards and Chinito Heartthrob Xian Lim, along with Miss Universe 2019 and longest reigning queen Zozibini Tunzi as their guest co-host. Serving as backstage correspondents were Tim Yap and Miss Globe 2021 Maureen Montagne.
