The country’s hottest and most prestigious male pageant officially started as Misters of Filipinas 2016 presented to the media 27 desirable and dynamic candidates at One Canvas Events Place in Makati City recently.
The 27 aspirants who will vie for the seven titles at stake include Filipino overseas representatives Jam Acero of Australia, Franc Canson of Italy and Jeremiah Nicolas of Melbourne. The titles are Mister International Philippines, Manhunt International Philippines, Mister Globe Philippines, Man of the World Philippines, Man of the Year Philippines, Mister Southeast Asian Philippines and the newest addition Mister Supranational Philippines.

Misters of Filipinas seeks to find Filipino men who can bring honor to the country as well as to empower them by providing a platform for social responsibility.
PEPPS has so far succeeded in giving honor to the Philippines through June Macasaet and Neil Perez who brought home the Manhunt International and Mister International titles in 2012 and 2014, respectively, and the latest in Karan Singhdole winning at the Man of the Year 2016 pageant in Indonesia.
