After gaining attention for her acting performance opposite Jericho Rosales in the film “Basurero” and winning the award for the Best Global Film at last year’s Auntyland Film Festival in New York, Filipina actress Althea Vega has embarked on another international venture. This time, she’s not participating as an actress but as a model.
With over a decade of experience in the industry and having appeared in more than 30 films and television shows, Vega achieved another feat by securing the Director’s Award at the Miss Swimsuit USA International Model Search 2023.
Representing Metro Manila, Philippines, the actress took to Instagram and expressed her gratitude for the recognition. Her caption reads, “What an incredible adventure to be on stage in Mexico, and thank you to all the beautiful new people that I met here. I hope we continue collaborating, and I am excited and driven for the new journey.”
Moreover, she elaborated on her motivation for entering the pageant, stating that she aims to “achieve more significant opportunities and constantly improve myself.”
“Being awarded the Director’s Choice award was a huge honor and just the icing on the cake. I am TRULY grateful for that,” she continued.
The Miss Swimsuit USA International Model Search 2023, held on Nov. 5, celebrated the beauty, grace, and confidence of 49 global finalists, with Keslyn Hart of Florida bagging the title.
