Miss Universe Philippines queens


Current reigning Miss Universe Philippines Michelle Dee wasn't the only beauty queen in attendance at the GMA Gala.

Stars of different stripes were in attendance at the recent GMA Gala, and one particular group that made their presence felt at the star-studded event were beauty queens, with more than one of them present at the festivities.

On one of its more recent posts, the Miss Universe Philippines official Instagram account put up a photo of current reigning Miss Universe Philippines Michelle Dee along with Miss Charm Philippines Krishnah Gravidez and Miss Universe Philippines first runner-up Christine Opiaza. The organization described the meeting like “when a charming universe collides.”

In fact, Celeste and Herlene's gowns had a striking similarity that had Herlene joking about it and Celeste gamely playing along.
