AT A GLANCE
With over 44 films on her resume as an actress, Vega’s top three most memorable films are General Commander, Metro Manila, and No Way Out
One of the biggest annual events in Mexico is the Swimsuit USA International Model Search World Finals. Last year, Althea Vega received the Director’s Choice Award at the 2023 Swimsuit USA International Model Search.
This year, I got an overseas call from the award-winning indie actress, and she told me the good news that the competition directors chose her to judge this year’s event, the now New York-based actress and model told Gossip Girl.
“As a candidate last year, I did my best despite the pressure and challenges. At the same time, I saw it as an opportunity to push myself to greatness to the best of my capabilities and to thrive even more. I was grateful for the support I got from fans, family, and friends; though they were not with me physically, their support and encouragement helped me keep going. But now that I am a judge, it is much different as a judge when tasked with choosing and contributing. People rely on their extensive experience and expertise in worldwide modeling, beauty pageants, fitness, and the show business industry. I feel honored to have been invited to serve as one of the esteemed Judges for the 2024 World Finals of Swimsuit USA International. It is flattering when people recognize my characteristics of being responsible, punctual, helpful, and always having a positive attitude, demonstrating my keen eye and ability to evaluate.”
I asked the female star of the award-winning indie film Metro Manila what the criteria for judging and what quality she was looking for from candidates.
“Joining beauty pageants and judging beauty pageants is not new to me. I am looking for the whole package: stage presence, charisma, intelligence, personality, and advocacy. Still, I also follow, apply, and respect whatever rules the beauty pageant organization gives. Most candidates who join the Swimsuit USA International competitions are aspiring models, women who want to enhance their confidence, or those who want to experience sisterhood. But among these women, there will always be someone who will excel above the rest. I have an eye to spot that queen.”
With over 44 films on her resume as an actress, Vega’s top three most memorable films are General Commander, Metro Manila, and No Way Out. You can check the rest on imdb.com.
