Vote for Rabiya

CEBU, Philippines — In a new set of glam shots released yesterday, Rabiya Mateo is once again showing her sultry side as she strikes a pose and smizes in an animal print mini. “She will only roar louder from here,“ the social media accounts of Miss Universe Philippines captioned.

Rabiya and MUP are calling on Filipinos to help her secure a spot in the Top 21 of the 69th Miss Universe by voting for her using the Lazada app.

With 18 countries and territories (Germany, Angola, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Georgia, Guam, Kenya, Lithuania, Mongolia, Namibia, New Zealand, Nigeria, Saint Lucia, Sierra Leone, Sweden, Tanzania, Turkey, and the U.S. Virgin Islands) so far withdrawing their participation due to pandemic-related lockdown and travel restrictions, pageant-obsessed Pinoys view this as further upping Rabiya’s chances of placing high in the May 16 finals.
