Miss Grand Slam 2017: Meet the Instagram Wild Cards

After 5 days of voting, and more than 47,000 votes later, we can now reveal the three ladies who have been voted into the first round of Global Beauties Miss Grand Slam 2017. They will join the 116 other young women who gained automatic entry by placing at their respective pageants. 

Our first Instagram Wild Card goes to the stunning Miss Universe Indonesia, Bunga Jelitha. This tall, stunning young woman made quite an impact in Las Vegas last year and her exclusion from the top 16 was a huge shock to a lot of people. Now, with the incredible support of her country, she is in the running for the Miss Grand Slam title. 

Next up, our second Instagram Wild Card goes to Miss Universe Russia, Ksenia Alexandrova. Seen by many as Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters' biggest competition in the run-up to the competition, fans the world expected her to survive the first cut at the very least. 

And our third Instagram Wild Card goes to Vanessa Pulgarin, Miss International Colombia. Without a doubt, she was one of the sexiest women who graced a Grand Slam stage last year. While that was obviously too much for the Miss International Organization, she certainly deserves her spot in our Miss Grand Slam Top 128. 

Congratulations to these young women and thanks to all our Instagram followers for your votes!
