“In preparation for the screening, I find myself blessed to have found a family in the Kagandahang Flores Camp of both Cebu and Manila. I am also thankful for my family’s support. I would go nuts without them,” Gigante said during her screening.

“Even though my Binibining Pilipinas journey has just begun, I’ve already learned so many things that will forever change my life. From discovering the value of healthy eating and an active lifestyle to improving the way I walk, talk and carry myself in general,” Gigante further added.

 “Seeing the hard work, discipline and fighting spirit of my fellow Binibini aspirants and sharing this journey with them isn’t mine alone, but one that I will go through together with everyone in Cebu,” Gigante said.

She also added that being away from home has just reminded her of how much she really loves Cebu.

Of the three, only Catacutan made it to the top five. She ultimately won the Binibining Pilipinas 2015 Supranational title.
