Vickie Marie Milagrosa Rushton (born May 8, 1992) is a Filipino-British actress, beauty pageant titleholder and fashion model who was crowned Mutya ng Pilipinas 2011. Prior to her win at Mutya ng Pilipinas, she was a Lin-ay sang Negros who represented the city of Talisay. Rushton eventually gained more exposure in the public eye when she became a housemate in Pinoy Big Brother: All In where she finished 4th place.
In April 2009, Rushton represented Talisay to the Lin-ay sang Negros 2009 pageant where she won the title.
On December 2, 2011, Rushton was crowned as the Mutya ng Pilipinas 2011 winner. It was in the same pageant where the would-be Miss International 2013 Bea Rose Santiago joined and placed as one of the 10 semi-finalists and was given a special title as Mutya ng Pilipinas Overseas. Being the Mutya ng Pilipinas 2011 winner, Rushton was supposed to represent the Philippines in the Miss Intercontinental 2011 pageant in Alicante, Spain. However, because of the delayed schedule of the local pageant, Kathleen Anne Po was handpicked to represent the Philippines instead.
In April 27, 2014, Rushton entered the Pinoy Big Brother house as a housemate of Pinoy Big Brother: All In. In the initial stages of the competition, she was portrayed as the pretty girl that was always under the radar; because of this, she was labeled as the one who least contributed in her team. She also was romantically teased by some of her fellow housemates, particularly Cheridel Alejandrino to housemate Daniel Matsunaga which led to some controversy between her and showbiz boyfriend, Jason Abalos. On Day 79, Rushton was nominated for the first time; she earned 22.96% of the total votes saving her from the eviction. Rushton made it to the Big Night and placed 4th, garnering -0.78% of net votes.
