Who Will Be Miss Global 2016?

Miss Global 2016 officially kicked off last September 14 with the Press Presentation held at the Crowne Plaza Galeria. Getting the nod of the media as Darling of the Press was host delegate Miss Philippines Camille CJ Hirro with Caitlynn Henry of Australia and Linnea Johansson of Sweden as 1^st and 2^nd Runners Up respectively.

The girls who impresses and wows the discriminating media during the press presentation usually take the lead from the get- go and all the way to the coronation night. Of course, a lot of factors can come into play as some of the hot favorites may fall by the wayside and some of the dark horses might gain momentum leading to the grand coronation night.

In the ongoing Miss Global 2016 Pageant currently hosted by the Philippines for the second straight year, the favorites of the press are leading the pack in the various pre- pageant activities.

If the results of two of the three important preliminary events are used to predict who will take it all on the grand coronation night, looks like we have three girls who are locked in for the big win!

Just two nights ago, the same three girls also bagged the top three places in the Swimsuit Competition held at the Henann Resort in Panglao, Bohol. Miss Ecuador outshone the field of 38 girls while Philippines and Australia placed second and third respectively.

Tomorrow night, a grand fashion show and the Evening Gown Competition sponsored by he Fashion Designers Association of the Philippines will conclude the preliminary events.

Who will be the epitome of class and elegance and be declared Best in Evening Gown? Will the same three girls get the top three spots? Or will another delegate spring a pleasant surprise?
