The Miss Universe Philippines Organization continues its successful partnership with Lazada, a leading E-commerce platform in the country, as the official voting platform for the upcoming Miss Universe Philippines 2021 pageant.

The Fan Vote function was also exclusively available on the Lazada platform during the Miss Universe Philippines 2020 and the 69th Miss Universe pageants. The finalist from Biliran, Skelly Ivy Florida, was last year’s Lazada Fan Vote Winner and earned a spot in the Top 16.

In 2013, Miss Universe Philippines Ariella Arida emerged as the Fan Vote Winner to secure her place in the Top 16 finalists, eventually clinching 3rd Runner-up in the final pageant contest based on her merits and talents. In 2017, Miss Universe Thailand, Chalita Suansane, also made it into the semifinals with the strong support from voting fans, and went on to win the judging panel over with her confident performance that saw her take a spot in the Top 6.

From September 13 to 24, beauty pageant fans will once again be able to support the pageant journey of their favorite finalists through the Fan Vote feature available exclusively on the Lazada app. The finalist who receives the most votes through the Fan Vote system on Lazada will earn a spot in the pageant’s Top 16, bringing her one step closer to the most coveted crown!

“At Lazada, we are committed to innovating and delivering new digital experiences that integrate e-commerce and entertainment through our platform’s reach and technology. We are honored to be a trusted partner of the Miss Universe Philippines Organization for the second consecutive year as the official voting platform in the country, and bring Filipinos closer together as they show their support for the 30 finalists,” shares Neil Trinidad, Chief Marketing Officer of Lazada Philippines.

Last September 1, Miss Universe Philippines announced the Final 30 finalist who move on to the final stretch of the competition. These phenomenal women battled it out in the Headshot, Introduction Video, Runway Video, Casting Video and Interview Challenges to earn the coveted spot. Three contestants were chosen by fans to automatically advance in The Final 30, namely, Cebu Province (Steffi Aberasturi), Masbate (Kirsten Danielle Delavin) and Pangasinan (Maureen Wroblewitz).

Will these three women continue to dominate voting and earn a spot in the Top 16 via fan vote? Will a new finalist emerge as a semifinalist through the Lazada Fan Vote? We will find out soon at the Miss Universe Philippines 2021 Finals on September 25.
