Miss Universe 2021’s Top 30 is out, and there are familiar names in the lineup!

Organizers of the Miss Universe Philippines unveiled on Wednesday evening, September 1, the “final 30” candidates who will be advancing to this year’s pageant in-person coronation.

Of the 30 vying to represent the country, 27 Miss Universes-to-be were chosen from a panel of judges. So, their performance in the previous challenges factored into judges’ decisions. 

Fan vote dominated when it came to picking the remaining three contestants. Maureen Wroblewitz, Kirsten Danielle “Kisses” Delavin, and Steffi Rose Aberasturi, as fan favourites, advanced without issue. Although these ladies gained their place via fan votes, this doesn’t make them any less than their judge-selected counterparts.

A YouTube livestream hosted by Billie Hakenson and Nico Locco revealed the list of 30 finalists for the contest. Here they are:

1. Grace Charmaine Banua Vendiola

2. Vincy Labadan Vacalares

3. Noelyn Rose Mabuhay Campos
