I'm so sad that her reign is about to end. Though she had only few travels, It's more on the impact and quality she brought into the organization. Catriona raised the bar!
I will miss her so much as current Miss Universe. She has set the bar so high during Miss Universe competition. She truly embodiment what true QUEEN should be. She is the only Miss Universe contestant that made headlines worldwide prior to finals night with her ICONIC Slow-mo turn. Thou MUO did not use her full potential as Miss Universe but who am i to complain she did her best and that is all that matters.
Thank you for representing the PHILIPPINES! Thank you for making the PHILIPPINES proud! Thank you for being a FILIPINO! Thank you for all your good deeds to children of the PHILIPPINES and the UNIVERSE!
and so many thank youssss
We wish you all the best in your future endeavors! Soar high Catriona Elisa Magnayon Gray! 24! PHILIPPINES!!!! - your MISS UNIVERSE 2018!!!!

The shade! It was never Catriona's fault because it wasn't her decision to make. All her activities, guesting, travels are under the direction, control, and approval by MUO/IMG. She could have done more if only she was given a rationalized schedule during the year of reign.
Some people will dispute that she's not the most beautiful Filipina the Philippines has ever sent to Miss Universe ( for me, she is ). Many will agree though that she is the ultimate performer in the history of Philippine pageantry, a true showstopper. Her drive is pure fire, her sense of purpose sharper than the knife, her concept articulate and on point, her mind crystal clear, her destiny is to conquer the universe, rather the world. Earning her this much deserved title - QUEEN. NOW AND FOREVER.

She actually made USD 1M for endorsements during her reign. The highest grossing earner Miss Universe during her reign of all time. Less travel to different countries but more money in the coffers and her selected charities.

This. Big time. She may not have the most exciting reign but she deserved that crown 100%. Frankly I am quite relieved that her reign is over. She is now free to do whatever she wants.
Everything is so finite. But don't you think that that's what makes our time, at specific moments, so important?
Why do all these people keep instigating that Catriona is the least traveled Miss Universe? Country-wise, yes she got 8 countries overall, but Pia, Iris, and Demi only had 9 countries! Catriona is just 1 country behind (if only her Dominican Republic trip pushed through then they all had 9 countries), but the reality is Catriona went to countries which are more relevant and impactful countries to the MUO. Countries which have shown strong sash factors in recent Miss Universe editions such as South Africa, Thailand, and Brazil which made her presence in these countries way more interesting, impactful, and unforgettable. Catriona was a star arriving in these countries especially in South Africa and Thailand. While for Pia, Iris, and Demi, I honestly cannot remember anything special during their visit in the countries they went, nothing so special unlike Catriona's. Secondly, Catriona has more travels done in some US States or cities compared to Pia-iris-Demi and even had more red carpet events. Lastly, in comparison to Pia, Catriona traveled to the Philippines more primarily doing more commercials and bigger endorsements during her reign. While i barely heard or seen any commercial endorsements made by Iris or Demi in their respective countries, not even those latina Miss Universe winners like Gabriela, Paulina, or Ximena! Seriously, they are all nothing compared to Catriona who raked in millions and millions of dollars for the MUO as well as to her own charitable organizations! I do understand where these latinos' hate on Catriona is coming from, hate because they are too envious and jealous about Catriona's success which their own winners were, sadly, unable to achieve and the fact that she just annihilated all these 2018 latina queens and they cannot even come close to Catriona's superb level! Now who do you call the least traveled Miss Universe? Catriona's cumulative travels whether to another country, or Philippines alone, or US States/Cities is obviously MORE compared to the other IMG Queens.
Add to it Catriona becoming the most followed reigning Miss Universe ever just 7.2 Million followers in instagram in just a matter of 10 months! Pia may be the most followed Miss Universe after her reign but guess what? she only reached 7 Million followers in 2018, imagine it took her to reach 7 Million in 3 years compared to Catriona in just 10 months. Now who is the most adored Miss Universe of all time? obviously it's Catriona!
Indeed, Catriona's reign is the most productive, most interesting, busiest, and the best among the 4 IMG winners! Don't even try to compare her reign to Paulina who had a very short and the most boring reign! Ooops..not being shady but it's just real talk!
Just to end this, to Catriona's bashers AKA envious & jealous haters, Catriona is the ONLY Miss Universe 2018 and the BEST Miss Universe ever, ...uhm how about your little country?

Very well said! You did your research well. Thank you for sharing this .
It's sooo hard to find another Catriona. I sometimes think that Catriona is over qualified for a Miss Universe lol. and i'm not even exaggerated! haha It's just that everything she do is flawless and peggable. Also the way she talk drives me crazy, she speaks with conviction and doesn't seem canned or pageant patty in answering all kinds of questions. I love you Cat!
