Emma Tiglao returns to pageantry as Miss Grand Pampanga

Emma Tiglao is having a grand return to pageantry!

The Filipina beauty queen shared the exciting news on Facebook by reposting a video of herself confidently strutting in a green gown for the Miss Grand Philippines 2025 pageant, where she will proudly represent her hometown of Pampanga.

“Pampanga, misan pa!! Para keka at para kekayung lulugud kaku. (Pampanga, isa pa! Para sa’yo, at para sa mga nagmamahal sa akin)” Emma wrote. 

Emma previously competed in the Miss Intercontinental 2019 in Egypt where she finished as a top 20 semifinalist. 

The reigning Miss Grand International queen is CJ Opiaza from the Philippines.

She was officially crowned Miss Grand International 2024 early this month after India's Rachel Gupta resigned and relinquished her crown.
