Another gem added to the crown of Philippine beauty pageant as Ms. Kris Tiffany Janson brought honor to the country in the 43rd Miss Intercontinental pageant which was held in Magdeburg Germany earlier this morning, December 5, (December 4, 8 PM Germany Time) clutching the 2nd Runner Up title.
She also garnered special awards, Miss Intercontinental Asia and Oceania and Miss Photogenic.
Kris also shined in the swimsuit and evening gown competition and wowed judges in the question and answer portion.
She was asked, “If you would meet a famous person celebrity no matter still alive or dead, who would you like to meet and why?”
To which she answered, “If I were to meet a famous person, I would want to meet Malalai Yousafzai – She’s a kid who fought for her right for education. I may not be able to jump into a bulletin to fight for my right, but I do have a voice. And if if would be lucky enough to bring home the crown, I would have a louder voice and be the voice of the voiceless and use this to help more people and bring happiness and joy to other people. Daankishen. “
In a statement, the Binibining Pilipinas Charities Inc. shared: “We would like to congratulate Ms. Kris Tiffany Janson for clutching the Miss Intercontinental 2014 Second Runner-up title and sweeping 2 special awards, Miss Intercontinental Asia and Oceania and Miss Photogenic in the Miss Intercontinental pageant last December 4 at Maritim Hotel, Magdeburg Germany. The special recognition illustrates worldwide acclaim and appreciation for Filipina beauty, grace and substance, and we are proud of Kris’ accomplishment.
Congratulations Kris, and the Filipino people are proud to welcome you home.
