Miss Philippines is crowned Miss International Queen 2015

Hurray to Miss Philippines Trixie Maristela for gaining back the crown of Miss International Queen which three years ago topped the lovely tresses of another Miss Philippines, Kevin Balot, Miss International Queen 2012. She was flanked by Miss Brazil, Valesca Dominik Ferraz and Miss Thailand, Sopida Siriwattananukoon who were named 1stand 2nd runners-up respectively.

Miss International Queen is the largest, most prestigious and spectacular transgender beauty pageant in the world. It officially kicked off on October 30, 2015 at Central World, Bangkok and culminated on November 6, 2015 with the coronation night at Tiffany Theater, Pattaya, Thailand. A total of 27 candidates from 17 countries competed in this year’s pageant which took on the theme “Inside Out.”

Trixie is a graduate of European Languages from the University of the Philippines. In May this year, she also won the title of Miss Gay Manila. Her answer to the final question “How do you compare beauty inside and beauty outside?” sealed her victory in the pageant.

“Beauty from the inside comes from the heart but beauty from the outside is just physical appearance. In the end, what matters is for beauty inside to radiate outside because a true queen does not just own a beautiful face and a golden crown but a true queen also possesses a golden heart.”
