CATRIONA GRAY ON GAZINI GANADOS: "praying that she does well."
Magkasunod na batch sina Catriona at Gazini sa Binibining Pilipinas.
Si Catriona ay kinoronahang Miss Universe Philippines noong 2018, at hinirang na Miss Universe 2018 sa Thailand.
Si Gazini naman ang Bb. Pilipinas Universe 2019, kung saan si Catriona ang nagputong ng korona sa kanya.
Si Gazini ang huling kandidata ng Miss Universe mula sa Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. franchise ni Stella Marquez-Araneta.
Nang sumunod na taon, 2020, napunta na ang pamamalakad ng Miss Universe sa Pilipinas sa Miss Universe Philippines Organization ni Jonas Gaffud.
Sa "Petals & Poetry" fashion show ng designer na si Haydee Garcia, kung saan si Catriona ang tampok sa finale, nagpaunlak ng ilang katanungan sa media ang former Miss Universe.
Isa sa inusisa sa kanya ay ang nalalapit na laban ni Gazini sa MGI All Stars.
Saad ni Catriona: "I know! I'm excited for her. I think she's going to do very well.
"She's putting on a performance. I don't... I'm not familiar with the format of the competition, to be honest.
"So, I'm just watching eagerly along, supporting her, and praying that she does well."

Samantala, suportado rin ni Catriona ang bagong hirang na Miss Universe Philippines 2026 na si Bea Windorski.
Saad niya, "I'm very excited for her journey. I think she's gonna do really well and I'm excited to see how it unfolds."
Ano ang inaasahan niya sa Miss Universe 2026 na gaganapin sa Puerto Rico?
Ayon kay Catriona, "I mean, it's hard to say because we don't...
"Oh, well, honestly, as a fan, I don't know what they're looking for in Miss Universe.
"Before, akala ko, sobrang important na maging spokesperson.
"But I feel, like, they're really emphasizing the importance of a certain look. So, I don't know.
"I mean, if it were up to me as a judge, I think she'd do really well, because she speaks very well, she's very statuesque.
"I think she's a great representative for the Philippines.
"But again, it's in the hands of the judges and of the org.
"So, if it were fair judging, I think she'd do very, very well."
