The long wait was finally concluded. After rounding up different cities in the Philippines and trimming down the finalist from thousands to twenty. Markus Paterson (Baguio) and Nicole Grimalt (Metro Manila) was finally hailed as the next BNY’s NextGen Ambassadors 2016.
The main event was created to look for the next ambassadors that they can line up along with their main endorsers that includes Joshua Garcia, Michelle Vito, Jake Vargas and Barbie Forteza.
The Grand Finals was held at the KIA theater last December 4, 2016 and was attended by media, bloggers plus hundreds of fans and supporters of all the candidates and celebrity performers.
The event was opened by introducing all the 20 finalist along with an opening number presenting BNY Jeans Ambassadors.
Former BNY Jeans Endorser, Ms. Gelli De Belen was also spotted as one of the judges of the event. Along with her are other notable personalities like TV 100’s Michael Carandang, Photographer Xander Angeles (Check out Xander’s Resto – Runners Kitchen), and Model/BNY Ambassador Runway mentor Wilma Doesnt-Bondoc, to name a few.
Another highlight of the event was the presentation of the finalist in a special BNY collection in collaboration with fashion designer Banggo Niu. The presentation of the military themed collection perfectly suits the grungy mood of the stage.
Other personalities who performed at the event includes Cj Navato, Kristel Fulgar, Marlann Flores, Jem Cubil, Bryan Santos, Girltrends, Claire Hartell and Pamu Pamorada.
