Georgian model Ani Stepanishvili has won the international beauty pageant Miss Asia Global 2026. Held in Malaysia, the competition featured contestants from 37 countries and regions. Five of them advanced to the final stage, from among whom the winner was selected.
Commenting on her victory on social media, the Georgian model thanked everyone who supported her and contributed to her success:
“When I heard Georgia called out on stage and realized that I had won, my very first thought was not that I, Ani Stepanishvili, had won the pageant… My primary emotion was the realization that I had brought honor to my homeland, secured another victory for my country, and achieved my goal.”
Miss Asia Global is an international beauty and talent pageant bringing together contestants from Asia, Europe, and other parts of the world. Organized by Pegasus Global, the event aims to promote cultural diversity, women’s talents, and intercultural dialogue.
Unlike conventional beauty pageants, contestants are evaluated not only on physical appearance, but also on intellect, personality, artistic abilities, and knowledge of their cultural heritage.
