THE inaugural Miss Transgender Global Queen

The event added another colour and
excitement to the Fiesta. The pageant’s
objective of establishing a platform for
transgender women to express their self-
identity and to showcase their talent and
individuality was positively acknowledged by
the crowd.
The coveted crown was won by Lianne
Domingo in a very close and tight contest, so
tight that the judges were asked to reconvene
to make the final decision as the two candidates
were tied for the top spot.
First runner-up was Shantz Chamos.
Special awards went to Iyana Francisco as
Ms Congeniality and Best In Swimsuit; Shantz
Chamos as Ms Popularity and Best In National
Costume; Liane Domingo as Ms Photogenic,
Best In Talent, Best In Evening Gown.
