For the past 12 years, Miss Philippines has made it into the shortlist of top contestants in one of the final rounds of the pageant — but, unfortunately, 2022 proved to be the year the streak would be broken. The 25-year-old Filipino-Italian beauty was not called into the Top 16.

…But So Was The Disappointment
It’s really heartbreaking because Philippines’ longest streak from 2010-2021 just ended. What’s more frustrating is that I felt that Celeste Cortesi is the best candidate that we sent in the Miss Universe stage after Catriona and yet she did not make it. ? #MissUniverse2022
