Would it be ‘third time lucky’ for Miss World Philippines 2018 Katarina “Katja” Rodriguez when she vies at the 68th Miss World pageant? Rodriguez, who left for Sanya, China for the month-long competition, finished as second runner up in Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 2 in 2014 and was named first runner up in Miss Intercontinental 2017 in Hurghada, Egypt.

The 26-year-old, Davaoeño model and Business Management and Philosophy degree holder from De La Salle University, will compete against 120 delegates coming from the four corners of the world to try to capture the country’s only second Miss World title.

“I am excited to compete and I want to thank all of you for your support. The big part of being a beauty queen is the honor and challenge of carrying your national flag and represent your countrymen. So I really have to bring my best foot forward and showcase the best version of myself and my country,” Rodriguez said during her send-off held recently at Annabel’s Restaurant in Quezon City which was attended by Miss Eco-International Philippines 2018 Maureen Montagne, Miss Multinational Philippines 2018 Kimi Mugford and Miss World Philippines 2018 1st Princess Chanel Morales together with Miss World Philippines national director Arnold Vegafria and General Manager Bessie Besana.

“Being crowned Miss World Philippines was for me ‘a coming of age mark’ for being a woman,” added the HIV-AIDS awareness advocate, who is being likened to ‘Quantico’ star Priyanka Chopra who won Miss World in 2000.

“Katarina has the poise and regal bearing of a winning queen. She’s a woman of substance and it shows the minute she talks about her passion and advocacies,” Vegafria said.
