Albania's Drita Ziri wowed the world, taking home the Miss EALBANIAarth 2023 crown.

She beat out 84 other contestants with her beauty, smarts, and passion for helping the planet.

Ziri, a tourism student and TV host, isn't new to pageants - she was even 2nd runner-up at Miss Globe 2022. Her dedication to fighting breast cancer won hearts on and off the stage.

The Philippines' Yllana Marie Aduan soared as Miss Air, Vietnam's Do Thi Lan Anh shimmered as Miss Water, and Thailand's Cora Blialt sizzled as Miss Fire, finishing as 1st, 2nd, and 3rd runners-up respectively.

This wasn't Vietnam's first time hosting Miss Earth - they did it back in 2010. This year, the pageant gave contestants a taste of Ho Chi Minh City's amazing culture.
