Miss Globe 2026: Vietnam wins crown, PH ends journey in Top 11

Vietnam won the Miss Globe 2026 pageant in Thailand on Friday, November 6. 

Chayathanus Saradatta passed her crown to Nguyen Thu Thao at the end of the competition, which was held at Siam Niramit Phuket and streamed live to viewers across the globe.

Suttida Aiadpu of Thailand was named first runner-up, nearly scoring a back-to-back victory and a homecourt win. 

The other runners-up include Mariia Zheliaskova of Ukraine, Sybel Hoekman of Netherlands, and Pilar Macias of Argentina.

The Philippines’ representative, Sasha Lacuna, got off to a strong start as she was the first to secure a Top 21 slot. 

She entered the semi-finals as the winner of the Social Media Award, which is based on both engagements and new followers.

After the swimsuit competition, where she graced the stage in a sparkly pink bikini, Lacuna was included in the Top 11. 

Looking like a golden girl during the evening gown competition, the Filipina beauty queen went on to end her journey in the Top 11.

Lacuna was hoping to follow in the footsteps of Ann Colis and Maureen Montagne, who won the Miss Globe crown for the Philippines in 2015 and 2021, respectively.

Aside from the Social Media Award, she also made it to the Top 6 of the national costume competition as she brought the story of her home province of Tarlac.
