PH’s Krishnah Gravidez is finalist in Miss World talent competition

Metro Manila, Philippines - Philippine representative Krishnah Gravidez has secured a spot in the Miss World 2025 Talent Competition finals, the pageant organizer announced on Wednesday, May 21.

Gravidez will be performing on May 23 for a chance to head straight into the quarterfinals or the overall Top 10 in the Asia & Oceania region.

The talent competition is one of the "fast-track" events of Miss World, along with the sport challenge and beauty with a purpose.

This event happens on the sidelines of the pageant’s competition proper where all 108 contestants vie for a slot in the quarterfinals’ Top 40.

Apart from Asia & Oceania, the other regions are Africa, Americas & the Caribbean, and Europe. Only 10 from each of the four continental regions will be able to advance.

Gravidez earlier shined in a white Mark Bumgarner piece as she joined Day 2 of the Head-to-Head Challenge also set for Wednesday.

The Head-to-Head Challenge is part of the main preliminary rounds where queens share compelling speeches about their advocacies and initiatives to advance to the next round.

Gravidez is vying for the country's second crown after Megan Young’s win in 2013.

The coronation night for the 72nd edition of Miss World is on May 31 in India.
