BAGUIO CITY – Wagi bilang Miss Ultra Continental 2022 ang Canada based Filipina beauty queen na si Jessica Mae Lancaon.
Ngunit dahil sa banta ng pandemya ay minabuting isagawa virtually o online ang pageant na dapat sana ay ginanap noon pang 2020 sa Ecuador.
Inamin naman ng 21-year-old esthetician beauty queen sa Star FM Baguio na naging sulit ang paghihintay niya dahil nakapag-uwi siya ng korona.
“It was amazing when I found out I won. It’s a very good opportunity. I’m glad I could be one of the few first individuals who could take part in a virtual pageant. I’m just so glad I could represent my country, my family, my community. It was of course a long journey but it was honestly was worth the wait.”
Nagpasalamat din naman ang newly-crowned beauty queen sa kanyang mga kababayan lalo sa kaniyang pamilya na sumuporta sa kanya at handa na rin itong simulan ang kanyang reign bilang Miss Ultra Continental 2022.
“Thank you to my wonderful Filipinos. You are amazing. I hope I could spread some inspiration you. I feel like it’s not just me who won this title but it’s me and my family who won this title. They’ve been supporting me through and through and I couldn’t thank them enough.”
Ipinanganak sa Canada si Lancaon habang mula naman sa Tarlac at Bicol Region ang kaniyang mga magulang
