Miss World Philippines 2018 Katarina Rodriguez recalls her Miss World 2018 experience in Sanya, China that concluded three months ago to the media, sharing that it was not as pleasant as she expected.<\/span><\/p>\n

During the press conference for the 26-<\/span>year-old\u2019s\u00a0newest film <\/span>Go! La Union<\/span><\/i> last Tuesday, March 19, the beauty queen was asked by the Philippine Entertainment Portal (PEP) on her international competition, Katarina immediately saying that \u201cit wasn\u2019t what [she] thought it was going to be,\u201d and she was aware of that one week prior to her departure from the Philippines. She explains in a mix of English and Filipino, \u201cWhen you hear Miss World, you think it\u2019s a really traditional pageant. But, if you watch it, it looks like a game show. That\u2019s how it felt when I was there, it was a game show.<\/p>\n

Katarina failed to make it to the Top 30 of the prestigious pageant but recalls Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray\u2019s past with Miss World as well, where she was a heavy favorite but only landed in the Top 5. The Asia\u2019s Next Top Model finalist elaborates, \u201cI think throughout, if you watch [Miss World], you\u2019ll see how the pageant is, the type of pageant it is. I\u2019m sure you remember that Catriona Gray joined. She won all of the awards, but she wasn\u2019t even first runner-up.<\/p>\n

And I think that speaks for itself because using her experiences as an example and my own experience as an example, you will really see, okay, there\u2019s something that they do differently from the likes of Miss Universe, of Miss International, and the other pageants.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Miss World 2018 was not the first time Katarina represented the country, finishing first runner-up during Miss Intercontinental 2017 in Egypt. When asked by ABS-CBN News whether she would continue to pursue getting the top crown for her country someday, the Filipino-American joked, \u201cI think that the world \u2013 or the universe, rather \u2013 has spoken and said my time is up sa<\/em> (in) pageantry,\u201d adding, \u201cI gave it a good run. I was in pageantry for two years and I enjoyed it very much. If I had known I would have loved it this much, I would have joined earlier on.<\/p>\n
