Metro Manila, Philippines – The Philippines is sending Fuschia Anne Ravena, a transgender woman titleholder, to vie for the first-ever Miss Grand International All Stars crown early next year.
The international pageant announced Ravena as the country’s delegate in a social media post on Thursday, Dec. 18.
Ravena was crowned Miss International Queen in 2022 after outshining international bets in the competition touted as the biggest beauty pageant for transgender women
The 30-year-old beauty advocates for compassion, inclusion, and equality.
“A powerful voice for LGBTQ+ rights and gender equality, she is also a successful beauty industry entrepreneur and the owner of a premier aesthetic clinic—redefining beauty through purpose, leadership, and lasting impact,” MGI said in its post.
The pageant organization early in December announced the All Stars edition of the Miss Grand International franchise, opening the beauty competition to all women and transwomen who have competed in other global pageants.
As Philippine bet, Ravena will join travel missions, photoshoots, fashion shows, and other activities and challenges for the pageant starting January 26 to February 7.
