MANILA, Philippines — Beauty queens from other contests are now crossing over to the Miss World pageant as they bid to become the Philippines’ representative for the pageant’s 2018 edition.
Fresh from representing the country in Miss InterContinental where she won first runner-up last January in Egypt, Katarina Rodriguez is now looking forward to become the country’s representative in Miss World 2018.
On her Instagram post, Katarina said “2018, the year where I told myself to take a deep breath, pull up my sleeves, and get out of my comfort zone. Tara na, World! ♥”
“A million dreams for the World we’re gonna make,” she wrote in another post.
