Chelsea Manalo was an absolute headturner during the swimsuit competition of the Miss Universe 2024 preliminaries.
The Philippine bet showcased her glowing beauty on stage in a purple two-piece swimwear layered with a sheer gold cape, which she matched with high heels in metallic silver.
The beauty queen opted to wear her hair down as she completed her look with smoky makeup.
The Miss Universe 2024 preliminaries are taking place on Friday, Nov. 15 (PH time).
The coronation night will be held on Nov. 17 (PH time) in Arena CDMX, Mexico, with Manalo vying to take home the fifth Miss Universe crown for the Philippines after Catriona Gray (2018), Pia Wurtzbach (2015), Margie Moran (1973), and Gloria Diaz (1969).
Manalo was crowned Miss Universe Philippines in May, making history as the first Filipina of African descent to win the crown.
