MANILA, Philippines — The Philippines once again proved its supremacy in the field of beauty pageants when two Philippine representatives won consecutive international beauty titles on Sunday, August 30, 2026.
Margarette Briton, 26, won the inaugural edition of Miss International 2026 held in Bali, Indonesia.
Jamie Casiño, 28, was crowned Miss Equality World 2026 at the coronation ceremony held at MGI Hall in Bangkok, Thailand.
MISS INTERGLOBAL 2026
Nabila Fenelia of Indonesia was the first runner-up in Miss International 2026.
Second runner-up is Nicole Missios of Australia.
Dariya Toleukhan of Kazakhstan was the winner of the Mrs. Interglobal 2026 category winner.
Margarette was awarded four special awards at Miss International 2026: Star Connect Award, Social Impact Award, Dinner Dress Award, and National Costume Excellence Award.
MISS EQUALITY WORLD 2026
Miss Equality is an international beauty pageant for transgender women that kicked off in Bali, Indonesia, in 2022
"Gender equality and human rights" are the slogans promoted by Miss Equality World.
Jamie Casiño was the first Filipino to win the aforementioned crown and title.
There are thirteen official candidates for Miss Equality World 2026.
If Jamie hadn't won, Filipinos wouldn't have known that there was such a beauty pageant except for Miss International Queen.
Allana Cordero of Mexico was the first runner-up in Miss Equality World 2026 and Vi Ai Giang of Vietnam was the second runner-up.
In addition to being crowned Miss Equality World 2026, Jamie is the recipient of The Voice of Equality award.
Jamie showed off his intelligence with his winning answer to the question: “If you had to choose between strengthening anti-discrimination laws and investing directly in economic opportunities for transgender communities, which would you prioritize and why?"
She answered: “As a trans advocate, I would prioritize making gender-affirming care accessible to everyone because I do believe that if we give this gender-affirming care for transwomen, then we would be able to save lives, just like how we queens here do advocate for trans people.
“I am more than ready to be the voice of equality, and to work with the Miss Equality World Organization and remind trans people that they are not alone, so come join with me.
"Let’s save lives together for a better tomorrow.”
