This is a great year for the Miss Universe Philippines fans because the lineup is absolutely stellar and while there has already been an elimination and another one is pending in the new format, certain favourites are holding steady and some fresh faces are making a great impact.  The introduction videos were interesting because it was hard to tell if the candidates had to follow a set of directives or if they were given freedom.
