Kinoronahan bilang Miss Intercontinental 2021 ang pambato ng Pilipinas na si Cinderella Faye Obeñita, Biyernes ng gabi sa Egypt (madaling araw ng Sabado, Manila Time)
Nasungkit ni Obeñita ang korona dahil sakanyang makahulugan at malamang sagot matapos tanungin kung ang kakayahan sa pagsasalita ng wikang Ingles ay mahalaga para sa isang Miss Intercontinental .
Ayon sakanya: “As an ambassador, I don’t think that speaking a specific language is very important here in Miss Intercontinental or any pageant at all. As long as that woman is a woman of power and grace, commitment, and intelligence;
No matter what language she speaks, and that woman is actually a woman of style and substance, then she can win any pageant or any endeavor she is into. Also, it’s very important, I have learned actually here in Miss Intercontinental, that a woman should possess power of substance;
And I believe I am that woman because that is the essence of a modern-day Miss Intercontinental — that we are living in a world that’s very hard to survive. And as a Miss Intercontinental, I would like to be that source of hope, that source of inspiration on the true power of beauty and that is felt on the kindness of our hearts and definitely on the sincerity of our loving actions,”
Ito na ang ikawalang pagkakataon na nasungkit ng Pilipinas ang korona sa nasabing international pageant makaraang maiuwi rin ito ni Karen Gallman, noong 2018. ### JUMEL DELA ROSA
