'Pinoy Pride' beauty queens grace Mega magazine's June cover
"Pinoy Pride" beauty queens who have brought home crowns to the country are gracing the cover of Mega magazine's June issue.
Titled "The State of Influence," the fashion magazine's upcoming issue will feature Miss World 2013 Megan Young, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach and Miss International 2016 Kylie Verzosa.
The magazine chose the beauty queens for its June issue to tackle on "what it means to be influential in this day and age, and consequently, pin it side by side with the bigger cause for celebration, pride."
On its Instagram account, Mega magazine said they are giving Miss World Megan Young the title "Beauty with Hope."
It said Megan Young "still reigns on in our hearts. Taking purpose well after the crown, she continues on with her advocacy, making sure every life is well accounted for. This is where true purpose begins."
"You cannot talk of beauty without Pia Wurtzbach," Mega wrote on the caption of one of its Instagram posts. The magazine gave Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach the title "Beauty with Love."
"A celebrated Miss Universe of her time, she talks to us about life after the crown and how she plans to take life from here on out.?? A stronghold of the magazine, the Pinoy Pride awards takes a sharp turn to the thriving forces that are sending steady ripples of change in society today," Mega wrote on its Instagram post.
Mega magazine, meanwhile, tagged Miss International 2016 Kylie Verzosa as "Beauty with Courage," saying the beauty queen "steps up to the plate to make sure her reign matters." —ALG, GMA News
