Miss Grand International All Stars unveils judges, scoring system

Miss Grand International All Stars revealed its panel of judges and pageant scoring system at the Welcome "All the Stars" to Bangkok event on Tuesday.

The judges are: beauty pageant icon Osmel Sousa; Miss Universe 2005 Natalie Glebova; Miss Grand International 2022 Isabella Menin; Miss Grand International 2020 Abena Akuaba; world-renowned pianist and composer Omar Harfouch; Miss Universe 1991 Lupita Jones; president and CEO of Jojo Bragais Shoes Jojo Bragais; and environmental activist Psi Samut Scott.

Among the judges, two made headlines last year in connection with the Miss Universe 2025 pageant held in Thailand: Omar and Natalie.

It can be remembered that Omar publicly resigned from the Miss Universe 2025 panel of judges and alleged that the results were rigged.

Natalie also released a statement saying that she won't return to the Miss Universe as a judge until the old tradition of the auditor with sealed results coming up on stage is reinstated.

Miss Grand International Public Company Limited (MGI PCL) is the license holder of the Miss Universe Thailand franchise and the host organization of Miss Universe 2025. Fatima Bosch of Mexico won the crown.

Meanwhile, the scoring system for MGI All Stars was also unveiled.

In every round, the judges will score in real time, and audiences at home will be able to see the scores instantly. The judges' scores will account for 70 percent of the total score.

At the same time, viewers from all around the world can vote in every round, and their votes will account for the remaining 30 percent. The votes will be calculated based on a key system scoring to ensure fairness for all the contestants, and it does not mean the contestant with the highest number of votes will receive the full 30 percent.

The scores will be different for every round and will be set back to zero each round.

Voting will be on missgrandinternational.com.

Filipinas Gazini Ganados, Fuschia Ravena, Imelda Schweighart, Keylyn Trajano, and Alexia Nunez are all competing for the crown.

The upcoming pageant is open to all women and trans women aged 20 to 40 who have previously competed in any international pageant.

The coronation night will be held on May 30 in Bangkok, Thailand. —Nika Roque/MGP, GMA News
