Catriona Gray's National Title

Catriona Gray won Binibining Pilipinas, not Miss Universe Australia. Yes, she is a half-Aussie but she represented the Philippines at Miss Universe. I noticed that in the related articles, Catriona Gray was counted as a Miss Universe titleholder from Australia but that claim was wrong.

Removed reference to Gray. - Ryk72 talk 11:33, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Catriona Gray's National Title

Catriona Gray is an Australian-born Filipino model, singer, and philanthropist. She is the fourth Filipino to be crowned Miss Universe. She joined Binibining Pilipinas 2018, not Miss Universe Australia. Catriona Elisa Magnayon Gray was born on January 6, 1994, in Cairns, Queensland, Australia, to a Scottish father, Ian Gray, and a Filipina mother, Normita Ragas Magnayon. The editor disregard Francesca Hung, the winner of Miss Universe Australia 2018 and replaced her with the representative of Philippines, Catriona Gray. 112.210.57.65 (talk) 05:41, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Crowns of Miss Universe Australia


Many Crowns have been used to identify the winner of Miss Australia.

  • Miss Australia Quest - 1965 to 1991*

Latvian immigrants and jewelers, Mr. & Mrs. James Greenfield, generously donated the crown to the Miss Australia Quest organization. Their donation was a token of gratitude for escaping the horrors of World War II in Europe and successfully starting a new life in Australia.

As for the physical description of the crown, it's crafted from a silver-toned metal, designed in the pattern of a wattle leaf and embellished with cultured pearls. At the crown's pinnacle, small gold-toned figures of a kangaroo and an emu stand on either side of a centerpiece that showcases a large natural pearl. The interior of the crown is lined with blue velvet, which is further overlaid with white netting.

  • I put an example above, but I think a new section detailing the crowns that have been used in Miss Australia should be added
  • There seems to be a rich history when it comes on why the Miss Australia crowns are like they are. It would enrich the page and emulate Miss Universe´s page. Sorry if there are impressions, this is my first edit!':
