Medina is hoping to replicate the success of her predecessor, Pia Wurtzbach, who was crowned Miss Universe last year.

The Philippines currently has three Miss Universe winners – Wurtzbach (2015), Margie Moran (1973) and Gloria Diaz (1969).

Since 2010, Filipina beauty queens have been performing well in the Miss Universe pageant with Top 10 and Top 5 finishes.
