Krishnah Marie E. Gravidez (born October 11, 2000) is a Filipino beauty pageant titleholder. A youth advocate, Gravidez will represent Baguio at the Miss World Philippines 2024 pageant.
Gravidez previously represented Baguio at the Miss Universe Philippines 2023 pageant. Finishing as a top five finalist, she was appointed as the country's delegate to the Miss Charm 2024 pageant before withdrawing from the competition after more than a year of her appointment.
Gravidez was born on October 11, 2000, in Ilocos Sur. She studied industrial engineering at the Saint Louis University in Baguio before pursuing a degree in civil engineering at the University of Northern Philippines in Vigan. In an interview on the variety show Wowowin in 2019, Gravidez stated she uses the cash incentives she earns from her stints in pageants to pay for her education. [1]
On February 18, 2023, Gravidez was introduced as one of the 40 delegates competing in the fourth edition of the pageant, [2] [3] serving as the delegate of Baguio after having previously been selected as Miss Baguio 2022. [4] Her performance in the preliminary rounds was received positively online, with praise directed in her performance in the swimsuit round. [5] In the national costume round, Gravidez wore a Strawberry-inspired ensemble designed by Erjohn dela Serna. The costume was made from Cordilleran textiles and featured a kabayang basket. [6] Her costume reaped her the "Tingog ng Filipina" award for Luzon. [7]
In the pageant proper, she won the Best in Swimsuit award. Subsequently, she advanced to the Top 5, where she, and her co-finalists, were asked "For you, what is the best that we can offer to the rest of the world? Why do you consider it so?", alluding to the Department of Tourism's new branding campaign. She responded: [4]
"Having to struggle at a very early age, I have uncertainties. But I've received kindness a lot of times. So now, aside from it's free, I give kindness to everyone. Because this kindness can go a long way, can motivate someone, can give radiance to rainy days. Because this kindness also made me transform myself from a woman who have nothing to a woman who has the universe on her doorstep."
At the end of pageant, Gravidez finished as a Top 5 finalist to Michelle Dee, who won the pageant to become the Philippines's delegate to Miss Universe 2023. Following Gravidez's finish at the Miss Universe Philippines 2023 pageant, she was appointed as Miss Charm Philippines 2024 in a ceremony at the Okada Manila. [8] [9] The city government of Baguio issued a resolution honoring Gravidez for her appointment to the title and was honored with a motorcade organized by the city's tourism office. [10] While Miss Charm Philippines 2024, Gravidez participated at the 12th Mindanao Fashion Summit held at Cagayan de Oro. [11]
On May 23, 2024, Gravidez crowned Cyrille Payumo of Pampanga as her successor as Miss Charm Philippines. [12] [13]
As Miss Charm Philippines, Gravidez was the country's delegate to the Miss Charm 2024 pageant in Vietnam. [14] Amid uncertainties in the pageant, she announced her withdrawal on June 2, 2024, more than a year after her designation. [15] A day following her withdrawal, Gravidez was introduced as part of the second set of candidates for Miss World Philippines 2024, designated as the delegate of Baguio. [16] [17]
In an interview with The Philippine Daily Inquirer, Gravidez revealed that she had been tapped by the pageant's accredited partner for Baguio to represent the city in the national pageant since April 2024. [18]
Gravidez established the non-profit Colors of Kindness charity, which advocates for the welfare of children and the youth. [19] [20]
