The news came out 2 months ago that our very own Toni Alyessa Hipolito was announced and chosen by Mr. Rasim Aydim CEO of Miss Globe International pageant as Miss Globe International 2016. She was proclaimed the 90th winner of the pageant.
The 2016 edition was scrapped due to the issue of war and terrorism in the middle-east. But the organizers of the pageant decided to name Miss Philippines Toni Hipolito as the eventual winner of 2016 because of her popularity and unprecedented number of likes in their official website and other social network sites.
A rousing press conferences was finally held last November 23 at the Scatter MNL Bar and Restaurant along Aguirre St., BF Homes, Paranaque City to honor the second Miss Globe International of our country ( Maricar Balagtas won the title way back in 2001 also in Turkey).
Toni told the media who attended the event that she is very grateful to the organizers of the pageant for considering her effort and dedication with regards to her preparation for the pageant. She says that she was so disappointed last year when the news came that the pageant was cancelled. She was more than prepared to compete last year with everything from trainings to costume and other wardrobes that she will be wearing for the entire pageant. She will be crown in a ceremony in Turkey before relinquishing the title to the new queen in December.
Also present during the press conference are the big wigs of Kagandahang Flores beauty camp led by Rodgil Flores and Gio Flores.
