Philippine bet Mutya Johanna Datul won Miss Supranational Personality at the sidelines of a pre-pageant event of the Miss Supranational 2013 pageant held at the National Beauty School in Minsk, Belarus.
According to reports, Mutya Datul shined in the event where all the candidates paraded in swimsuits and cocktail dresses. Mutya's jovial personality and undeniable charm captivated the judges which voted for her to win the Miss Personality sash.
"Miss Philippines charm, smile and charisma were hard to match in tonight's competition. She truly owned the stage and conquered the judges and the audience in Belarus," popular pageant website Global Beauties described Mutya during the said presentation.
Aside from Mutya Datul, three other ladies won special awards that night. Miss Supranational Elegance award went to Sally Lindrgen of Sweden while Miss Supranational Top Model sash fitted very much on Valeria Donu of Moldova. Meanwhile, photographers gave Desirée Del Rio of Puerto Rico the Miss Photogenic award.
Mutya's roommate, Nancy Markus of Malaysia also won a special award being hailed as Miss Supranational Talent, with Miss Cameroon and Miss US Virgin Islands completing the top 3 in the talent competition.
The special award will surely boost Mutya Datul's spirit in the pageant which will culminate on September 6 at the Sport's Palace in Belarus. Ekaterina Buraya, the reigning Miss Supranational from Belarus will crown her successor at the end of the event.
Let's hope it's our very own Mutya Datul.
