Miss Universe Philippines has always delivered iconic moments—from pasarela turns to unforgettable Q&A answers. But this year, there’s a new twist: fans now have a real say in who takes the crown.
Maya, the #1 Digital Bank in the Philippines and Official Voting Partner of Miss Universe Philippines (MUPh) 2026, collaborates with Dogshow Divas’ Baus Rufo and Macoy Dubs to launch KEMELEC, a witty, pageant-meets-politics spin on how Filipinos can now take part in choosing the next queen.
The KEMELEC introduces Baus and Macoy as the official Kemessioners—your go-to authorities for MUPh updates and voting paandar—guiding fans on how to turn their support into actual votes.
