Philippine representative Anna Theresa Licaros bagged the Miss Photogenic special award in the recent Miss Universe 2007 beauty pageant held today at the National Auditorium in Mexico City.

Licaros is now the seventh Filipina who won the Miss Photogenic award. In 1973, Margarita Moran was not only crowned as the Miss Universe, she was also voted as Miss Photogenic during the event. The said title, which used to be chosen by media personnel covering the event, is determined by Internet votes.

Meanwhile, Riyo Mori of Japan was crowned as the Miss Universe 2007. She defeated Natalia Guimaraes of Brazil (1^st runner-up), Ly Jonaitis of Venezuela (2^nd runner-up), Honey Lee of Korea (3^rd runner-up), and Rachel Smith of USA (4^th runner-up).
