Cory Quirino cites Catriona Gray's calibre as beauty queen

-


There's no doubt that Australian-Filipino Catriona Gray of Albay is one of the front-runners in this year's Bb. Pilipinas beauty pageant.

And cheering for her is no less than her former boss, Cory Quirino, ex-franchisee of the Miss World Philippines beauty pageant, now newly elected president of the Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption.

Quirino said that she is confident Gray will win one of the major titles during the grand coronation of the Bb. Pilipinas 2018 beauty contest at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Cubao, Quezon City on March 18.


Sought to give message to Gray, Quirino said: "Cat, I saw a crown on your head-even from day one that we had first met. There is nothing standing in your way. Do not doubt that you deserve that crown;

"But seek victory only with a grateful and humble heart. Raise up your quest to the Lord then all will be yours," said Quirino, during an exclusive interview.

In 2016, Gray won the Miss World Philippines contest and eventually represented the country in the Miss World pageant held in Maryland, USA. She finished in the Top 5 of the longest-running beauty contest in history.

In January 2017, Quirino gave up her Miss World Philippines franchise. Talent manager Arnold Vegafria has been named as the franchise director of Miss World Philippines contest.


Quirino said that she does not see anything wrong if Gray transferred from Miss World Philippines to Binibining Pilipinas.

"A true beauty queen must continue her quest for an international crown. For this reason, as a part international beauty pageant director, I congratulate Catriona for deciding to give it one more sincere try," she said.

Quirino said that Gray deserves either the Miss Universe or Miss International titles. "Cat's calibre of beauty and intelligence qualifies her for any of the two major titles - Miss Universe or International. Nothing less." - ROBERT REQUINTINA

"Oo I am. Pero I don't even know kung alam n'ya. During the Christmas party of ABS CBN last year, I was with Tito Bayani (Agbayani). E magkapitbahay silang dalawa. And even Tito Bayani was telling me hindi na n'ya nakikita si Erpat. Lagi s'yang busy. Sinabi ni Tito Bayani, 'why don't you just text him?' "said Diego, when asked if he's reaching out to his father, during an interview on "Tonight With Boy Abunda" on ABS CBN. "Sabi ko, 'why not?' Nanghihinayang ako eh. Kung kelan ako sobrang seryoso na sa ginagawa ko sa showbiz na 'to, I wanna learn so much. I'm taking workshops with Tito Pen Medina at kung sinu-sino pa. Why not my dad?

Megastar Sharon Cuneta has complained about the construction of her neighbor's condominium unit, saying that it brought stress to her family.

Her complete post: "We are sleep-deprived & the noise is stressful for me, my husband and and my children when we are home, that living in a beautiful building that has its own hotel and restaurants (and that cost more than what I sold our Wack-Wack house for!?!) still makes us all want to move out and check into a nearby hotel or transfer to a house or another condo!; "I understand how uncomfortable it is for a homeowner to have to do some construction in his own property and know he’s inconveniencing and bothering neighbors; "I am usually very understanding.
