Cebuana Beauty Queens vying for Miss Universe Philippines 2020

In an annual countdown, a number of beauty pageants happen across the country. Each event would never be complete without representatives from the country’s pageant powerhouse – Cebu. One of the most anticipated events of all this year is the Miss Universe Philippines, it is a national pageant which aims to select a representative to compete in the prestigious international pageant – Miss Universe.

Last 2019, Philippines was represented by Ms. Gazini Ganados, a confidently proud Cebuana, in the Miss Universe 2019 in Atlanta, Georgia. This year, three strong, smart, and beautiful Cebuanas, namely Tracy Maureen Perez, Apriel Smith, and Lou Dominique Piczon, are on the run to becoming the country’s next representative in the grandest international pageant after having been selected as official candidates for the first edition of Miss Universe Philippines.

Let’s get to know more about Cebu’s three gorgeous representatives.

Piczon, a 24-year old Cebuana diva, has racked several titles before being crowned as Binibining Cebu Heritage 2018 and also becoming an official candidate on this year’s Miss Universe Philippines. She was USJR’s Ms. Intramural 2014, Reyna ng Aliwan 2016, Ms. Summer Queen 2013 first runner-up, and many more

She was Binibining Cebu Charity 2018, and placed 2nd runner-up during Miss Cebu in 2016, and was also one of the Top 12 in Miss World 2019.
