A couple of weeks ago, we have already heard about the possibility of having the Miss Universe pageant held earlier than the usual November-December schedule. Well we already have talked about that last December 2nd.
In fact Sashes&Scripts was the first to dish on this before everyone had heard of it. In that blogpost, I have also written that there is a possibility to move it to summer and that means summer in the US (which falls until August moving to September). And yes, the possibility to host it in Manila is about 90% sure that is according to our moles. Unlike the previous hosting, the negotiations for the 4th hosting in Manila has coasted along more smoothly. It is said that only the President’s approval was needed around January of this year and everything will be finalized before the month of May (before the Sangguniang Kabataan elections). The Philippines cannot to host the pageant in 2019 as it will be a conflict with the coming Senatorial elections as mentioned by our sources.
As for China hosting the pageant, it is still a bid to host but it isn’t necessarily sure for which year. Our moles have said that the presence of MUO officials in China doesn’t necessarily mean that the hosting was already a done deal. It is speculated that the visit there has more to do about a possible Miss Universe sponsorship or endorsement. Hangzhou is a major tea producer of China and it may have to do about that.
According to our insider moles, the Philippine hosting committee is asking that it be set earlier (probably between the months of late September to early November). The pageant will be a 3 1/2 week long celebration as girls will be going around tourist spots in the country that were not yet featured in the 2016 pageant. There already were talks between the Miss Universe org with Miss Universe local hosting committee. While businessman Chavit Singson is rumored to be footing a hefty amount of the bill, the Department of Tourism will have to come up with an estimated half of the budget through other sponsors. We don’t have new updates if Mall of Asia Arena will still be the venue for the pageant as the Araneta Coliseum was also speculated to be in the talks.
That is what we know so far, most likely there will be new developments happening in the next few weeks. Nothing is yet written in stone as Miss Universe national directors haven’t yet received any type of memo on when or where the pageant will be held as a confirmation.

I would rather have Manila, The Philippines as the venue for Miss Universe 2018 than Las Vegas, Nevada because I know for sure that whenever the Philippines hosts a pageant, it'd surely be a very festive, elaborate celebration and candidates are being treated like major celebrities and real beauty queens. I am also certain that the judging of the upcoming Miss Universe pageant in Manila will be fair and candidates will enjoy their pageant experience just like their predecessors in 1974, 1994 and 2016.

If Miss Universe takes place in Las Vegas this year, I'm sure the girls will have a boring time languishing in their hotel rooms. And remember that cheap venue where they held the Preliminary Competition last year??? At least in Manila, the representatives will get the attention they deserved, instead in some countries where beauty pageants are ignored most of the time.
There are some case of hometown decisions in the past editions of The Miss Universe pageant. Good example are:
1. Denise Quinones' victory in Puerto Rico, in 2001. 2. Olivia Culpos' victory in Las Vegas, 2012. That's only two cases I can remember.
But most of the time, the host country only reaches the semifinals, or worse, did not even made it ( Puerto Rico 1972, Australia 1979,Panama 1986,Taiwan 1988, Thailand 1992 & 2005, Mexico 1993, Namibia 1995, Trinidad & Tobago 1999, Bahamas 2009,USA 2010, Russia 2013).
That makes Miss Universe a galaxy apart from Miss World where hometown decisions are a common spectacle ( China won 2 blue crowns in their own soil ).
Catriona is probably one of the Philippines' most strongest reps in the history of Miss Universe, and one of the early favorites upon winning MUP. I don't see anything wrong if she deserve to win the Mikimoto crown, Gloria Diaz be damned.
Still waiting for the reps of countries from USA, Colombia, Canada, Jamaica, Brazil, Thailand, India, Spain, Russia, Mexico & China.

Not interested in any of them, especially if my country sends an overrated, ugly girl again (what is it this time, a fake doctor after the fake nuclear scientist bombed last year?
). Lets do the Miss Universe and crown Catriona now!

My goodness gracious! If Miss Universe pageant be held in Manila in September-November it is during these period of time when South-West monsoon season is at its peak. Meaning continuous downpour is likely to happen in most parts of the archiphelago.
The best time of the year that Miss Universe pageant is to be held in the Islands Philippines will be from March to May. It is during these time of the year when the islands have mostly sunny days with blue skies for it is the summer season of the Philippines.
