The whole Philippines is in celebration mode because of Catriona Gray's victory in the just concluded coronation night of Miss Universe 2018.

The pageant was held in Bangkok, Thailand where Steve Harvey and Ashley Graham served as hosts. Television personalities Carson Kressley and Lu Sierra gave updates and provided commentary throughout the event.

Filipinos once again expressed their happiness on social media through witty and humorous posts on social media.

There were those who connected Catriona's triumph to Pinoy TV shows and teleseryes.

Here are some of the most hilarious and funniest tweets about Catriona being named as Miss Universe 2018:

There are those who got angry with anchors Carson Kressley and Lu Sierra for not mentioning Miss Philippines at all during their commentaries but they posed with her for a photo opportunity after she won Miss Universe 2018.

These netizens are reminded of Lily Cruz, Maja Salvador's character in Wildflower:

This netizen believes that camerawork of Ang Probinsyano is better than that of Miss Universe:

Ang Probinsyano first aired on TV in 2015, the same year Pia Wurtzbach was crowned Miss Universe.

Maybe this could have been a legit question for Catriona in the Q&A:

Sam Milby was one of the actors who congratulated Catriona on her win.

However, there were some who found it hard to separate Sam from Ace, his womanizer character in Halik:

It looks like Catriona can pass off as Sang'gre Pirena in Encantadia.

Even Pia Wurtzbach, Maxine Medina, and Rachel Peters can pass off as Sang'gres, too!

Students admitted they skipped classes in order to support Catriona in the Miss Universe pageant.

These moms are also die-hard supporters of Catriona.

One is a soon-to-be-mom who has already thought of a name for her child:
