Miss Sta. Cruz Aliya Rohilla has emerged victorious in the Miss Manila 2024 pageant, which held its coronation tonight at the Metropolitan Theater.
Aliya won over the judges with her response in the question and answer portion.
To the question “What is truly worthy of a woman's time?” Aliya had this response: “Something that is truly of a woman's time would be her purpose. I think living a purposeful life means having that sort of destination to your journey in this lifetime. Because without purpose, it's like sailing a ship without an anchor."
Miss Tayuman Daniella Mosutafa ended her pageant journey as second runner-up. Meanwhile, Miss España Jubilee Acosta ended her pageant journey as first runner-up. Miss Manila Chairty went to Miss Sta. Ana Xena Ramos, while Miss Manila Tourism went to Miss Manuguit Leean Jame Santos.
The Miss Manila pageant was hosted by Kapuso star Gabbi Garcia, Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray, and Miss Universe 2022 R'Bonney Gabriel.
Among those to judge the competition are GMA Network Senior Vice President Atty. Annette Gozon-Valdes, ABS-CBN Board Member Charo Santos Concio, and current reigning Miss Universe Philippines Chelsea Manalo.
Audiences can relive the pageant highlights during the broadcast on GMA Network tomorrow, June 23, 2024, 2 p.m., after All-Out Sundays. It will also be streamed online through Kapuso Stream.
