Philippine bet Mutya Johanna Datul bagged the Miss Supranational 2013 crown Friday night in Minsk, Belarus, besting 82 other candidates from all over the world.
Earlier, the 21-year-old, 5’8″ beauty from Isabela was declared a strong contender for the title after being named Miss Personality.
Now on its fifth year, the Miss Supranational pageant is considered the fifth biggest international beauty contest in the world, after Miss Universe, Miss International, Miss World, and Miss Earth.

Datul is the first Filipina — the first Asian, in fact — to be named Miss Supranational, which came with a $25,000 cash prize. Last year’s Philippine representative, Elaine Kay Moll, won third runner up in the pageant held in Warsaw, Poland.
Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc., the local franchise holder for Miss Supranational, announced in a statement that Datul will come home “to a rousing welcome” on Monday, September 9.
Miss Mexico was named 1st runner-up, Miss Turkey 2nd runner-up, Miss Indonesia 3rd runner-up, and Miss US Virgin Islands 4th runner-up.
