Top 4: Miss Earth & Elemental Court
The eight candidates tested their knowledge as they chose a random word to expound on within the 30-second timer. From there on, only half moved to the Final Four.
From the 78 queens, only four survived and came closer to the crown: Thailand, Iceland, Vietnam, and the Czech Republic.
With this result, the hosting country also concluded its journey to the coveted title, as the Philippines was one slot shy of securing a spot in the Top 4. Despite this, fans in the crowd poured their support for Miss Philippines-Earth, Joy Barcoma, for putting up a good fight representing the country and making the nation proud with her wit and humor that captured the hearts of the Filipinos.
In the final question and answer round, the four queens vie for the elemental crowns, and moments later, Earth announced its new queen.
- Miss Earth Fire – Thailand
- Miss Earth Water – Vietnam
- Miss Earth Air – Iceland
This means, Natálie Puškinová of the Czech Republic is Miss Earth 2025. The then-reigning Miss Earth, Jessica Lane of Australia, passed the crown to her successor. With the Czech Republic’s triumph, alongside the elemental courts, she carries 25 years of legacy, upholding beauty and purpose for championing Mother Earth. Congratulations!
