Mister Pilipinas Worldwide is crowning its 2025 kings this month, to be the country’s representatives in various international male pageants.

Since its inception two years ago, Mister Pilipinas Worldwide already has 1 international crown and several runner-up placements under its name.

MPW 2024 winners’ international placements

Dom Corilla won Mister Global 2024, the Philippines’ first ever win in the said pageant.

Brandon Espiritu was named second runner-up in Mister Supranational 2024. The same placement was achieved by Kenneth Stromsnes in Manhunt International last year, while Justine Ong was among the top six finalists of the Thailand-based Mister International 2024.

MPW first batch of winners

Mister Pilipinas Worldwide’s first batch of winners, on the other hand, also did well in the international pageant scene.

The highest placement was achieved by Ivan Ignacio who was named second runner-up in Mister Cosmopolitan 2023.

Jeff Bunney was able to get into the top 10 of Mister International 2023 (Thailand-based).

John Tanting was among the top 15 finalists of Mister Global 2023, while Johannes Rissler managed to get into Mister Supranational 2023’s top 20.

MPW 2025 Hot Picks

Many familiar faces are competing this year, as well as new ones that are worthy of our attention.

Kirk | Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (FB)

Baguio City’s Kirk Bondad is the strongest contestant, IMO. He was Century Tuna Superbods 2022 and the appointed Mister World Philippines 2024. He, however, only made the Top 20 when he competed internationally in Mister World.

Jether | Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (FB)

Next is Taguig’s Jether Palomo who is the current Century Tuna Superbods title holder. He also placed first runner-up in Mister Tourism World 2023.

Joshua | Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (FB)

Professional model Joshua Daj Lawrence of Antique is also a strong candidate with his caucasian looks.

Kenneth Cabungcal | Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (FB)

Meanwhile, Dumaguete City’s Kenneth Vincent Cabungcal is serving hotness with his Pinoy looks. He placed first runner-up in last year’s edition of Man of the World.

Kenneth Marcelino | Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (FB)

Laguna’s Kenneth Marcelino is a fresh face in pageantry, but he has a big potential given that he’s young, also very Pinoy looking, and can do his own make-up. Yes, he’s a make-up artist who has worked with no less than Chelsea Manalo.

Hamed | Mister Pilipinas Worldwide (FB)

Last in my hot picks list is Australia’s Hamed Cabrera. His recent photos, however, show him gaining some weight, but I think there’s still time to shed those since the finals is still 18 days away. Just think about the diet as a sacrifice since it’s the Holy Week (assuming that he’s Christian).
