Miss Universe Philippines 2019 Gazini Ganados shared her advice to Rabiya Mateo, the Philippines’ bet for the Miss Universe pageant next month.
Ganados passed down the crown to Mateo last year.
“When I crowned her as Miss Universe Philippines, I told her lang naman na just be yourself and enjoy every bit of the journey. Kasi that’s all that matters naman. This is once in a lifetime opportunity,” said Ganados in an interview with “Sakto” on TeleRadyo on Friday.
Ganados also shared her message for Mateo who is now in Florida for the much -anticipated competition.
“Rabiya, you already know how much we are here to support you, how much we love you and rooting for you. We know that you will make us Filipinos proud and laban lang talaga,” said Gazini.
