Alexie Brooks confidently expresses her androgynous identity, celebrating freedom and authenticity in how she presents herself.
In Tuesday’s “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda,” the Filipina beauty queen spoke candidly about how she embraces fluidity in both style and relationships.
“I express myself as an androgynous woman or person. So, basically, if I feel like, I wake up in the morning and I feel like dressing up as masculine, I go for it. I have days that I feel like very feminine and I literally go for it,” she said.
Per Alexie, those who are close to her know that it’s just the way she is.
“And I feel like it's better if you don't put yourself a limit into what you can, you know, expression mo sa sarili mo. And it's so much better. I'm happier. I'm comfortable and I feel confident and I don't think—there's nothing wrong with that,” she said.
When asked if being androgynous means one can have relationships with men and women, Alexie said yes.
“I think it's up to you kung saan ka mas comfortable. But yes. Kung saan ka masaya,” she said.
Alexie was crowned Miss Eco International 2025 last April at the Hilton Green Plaza in Alexandria, Egypt.
Following her win, Alexie honored her late grandmother, Lola Basing, and also expressed her heartfelt gratitude to those who supported her in her journey.
Aside from the title, Alexie also won the National Costume competition with her Philippine Eagle-inspired costume designed by Tata Pinuela.
