    Our Top 12 Favorites for Miss Universe 2016


    We do not usually pick our top favorites in every pageant because we are not a pageant reviewing site and we are not beauty pageant experts. We are a pageant ranking blog that deals in tallying and ranking of country's performances. 

    And because Miss Universe fever is on its peak, we are (for the first time) presenting to you our Top 12 favorites who can possibly wear the Miss Universe crown. 

    Note: Hot picks or Top favorites will be applied only for Miss Universe pageant in our blog site.     

     
    Our Top 12 in alphabetical order: Brazil, Colombia, Curaçao, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Mexico, Panama, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Thailand, United States of America (USA) and Venezuela


    Delegates from Germany, Costa Rica and Aruba made it also to our list but this year's edition will only have 12 candidates for the semifinals and will be cut to 9 candidates after the swimsuit round. Then they will choose 6 ladies after the evening gown competition. The top 6 will continue for the final question and only 3 women will advance for the final walk and final look. Then a new queen will be selected.
