The 35 official candidates of the inaugural Cosmo Manila King and Queen 2022 were presented at the La Reve Pool and Events Place in Quezon City last Sunday, Oct. 23.

During the special show, the members of the press selected the winners for the Darling of the Press special award. The winners were Nash Mendoza (male) and Sahara Cruz (female). Each of them won a P20,000 cash prize.

Producer Marc Cubales said, however, that the results of the press presentation have no bearing on the selection of the grand winners.

The grand coronation of the Cosmo Manila King and Queen 2022 will be held at the Skydome, SM North EDSA in Quezon City on Nov. 5.

"We're back to normal. As a producer, I would like to be the first to produce a sexy pageant competition, a bikini pageant in a very nice venue. Higit sa lahat, para makatulong at magbigay saya na rin sa mga agent at models ng sexy pageant show," Marc said.

"Yung feeling na nakakapagbigay ng work through producing is good. Maraming masisipag at kilala tayong mga kaibigan na when it comes to production sobrang gagaling at honestly ramdam ko yung dedication nila sa work. So deserve nila talaga na bumalik at magkaroon uli ng opportunity na gumawa ng isang quality pageant like Cosmo Manila," he added.
