IN PHOTOS: Binibining Pilipinas 2015 coronation night

MANILA, Philippines - As it was for Mary Jean Lastimosa, third time's the charm for Pia Wurtzbach.
 
Pia was crowned Miss Universe-Philippines 2015 on Sunday during the Binibining Pilipinas 2015 coronation night.
 
This is the third time joined the Bb. Pilipinas pageant; she was a runner-up in 2013 and placed in the top 15 in 2014. 
 
It can be remembered that Lastimosa, last year's Miss Universe-Philippines, lost in the Bb. Pilipinas pageant twice before clinching the top prize.
 
The 25-year-old from Cagayan de Oro City will represent the country in the Miss Universe pageant later this year.
 
But Pia is not the only beauty contest veteran in this year's pageant. 
 
Janicel Lubina, a runner-up to Megan Young in the 2013 Miss World-Philippines pageant, was named Bb. Pilipinas-International. She became a media darling thanks to her humble blessings; before joining beauty pageants, Janicel worked as a house helper with her mother. 
 
Christi McGarry is Bb. Pilipinas-Intercontinental 2015, Rogelie Catacutan is Bb. Pilipinas-Supranational 2015 and Ann Lorraine Colis is Bb. Pilipinas-Tourism 2015.
