Pageant
[edit]Format
[edit]The competition consisted of several rounds with all delegates participating in the swimwear and formal wear segments. The segments, the close-door and casual interviews, and fan voting via the "Universe Choice", determined the Top 7 semifinalists, a reduction from the initially planned Top 10 due to the lower number of delegates. The Top 7 then underwent a pre-interview round with the judges, which selected the Final 4, and ultimately concluded with a question-and-answer round, where the winner and his runners-up were announced.[5]
