Krishnah Gravidez's Miss World 2025 finals gown a ‘tribute to Filipino heritage'
On Instagram, the Miss World Philippines Organization shared a closer look at the Filipina beauty queen wearing the stunning gown by Filipino fashion designer Rian Fernandez.
In a separate Instagram post, Rian wrote that the hand-embroidered tube top trumpet gown is 'a stunning tribute to Filipino heritage, crafted with exquisite hand-embroidery in pristine white and shimmering silver.'
Its design is inspired by the sun and its rays from the Philippine flag, intended to symbolize the sovereignty, resilience, and vibrant spirit of the Filipino nation.
'Delicately detailed with traditional Filipino patterns and motifs, it embodies the rich cultural tapestry of the Philippines while exuding regal elegance,' wrote Rian.
"This majestic piece not only celebrates Filipino pride but also showcases the artistry and craftsmanship that are deeply rooted in the country's history, making it a true embodiment of Filipino identity and grace.'
Krishnah ended her Miss World journey with an impressive Top 8 finish during the coronation night on Saturday at the HITEX Exhibition Centre in Hyderabad, India.
Before the coronation, Krishnah told her fellow Filipinos that she is dedicating her Miss World experience to her kababayans.
'Para sa inyo. Para sa bansa. Para sa lahat ng nangangarap,' she said.
Opal Suchata Chuangsri of Thailand was hailed Miss World 2025.

'Family Feud' honors Red Sternberg in Friday episode
In a heartfelt tribute to the late Red Sternberg, 'Family Feud' delivered a touching blend of competition, nostalgia, and remembrance. Friday's episode, which also marked the 800th episode of the hit game show, reunited beloved members of the 1990s youth-oriented series 'T.G.I.S.,' honoring Red's legacy in both spirit and memory. Hosted by Dingdong Dantes, the show invited two special teams of 'T.G.I.S.' alumni, who competed in a lively barkadahan showdown. Team 'T.G.I.S.' was composed of Michael Flores, Ciara Sotto, Bernadette Allyson, and Maybelyn Dela Cruz. Team ''90s Teen Barkada' included Kim Delos Santos, Polo Ravales, Maui Taylor, and Chico Ventosa — younger cast members of the popular '90s youth-oriented show. Team 'T.G.I.S.' played the final round and won a total of P200,000. In the audience were Red's wife, Sandy, and their daughter. Red passed away on May 30 at 50 years old. — Carby Basina/LA, GMA Integrated News

Have Kate Valdez and Fumiya Sankai talked about marriage?
Have Kate Valdez and Fumiya Sankai talked about marriage? On Friday's episode of 'Fast Talk with Boy Abunda,' the couple openly discussed their future plans, confirming that their relationship extends beyond casual dating. According to Kate, she believes it's time to talk about marriage and settling down. 'Kasi we're not just together for joke-joke lang. Sometimes there's [a] question din na you have to know about the financial stuff, paano 'yung mga gano'ng bagay,' she said. While they are taking their time and currently focusing on their respective careers, the Sparkle star affirmed that marriage is a direction they are heading towards. 'Papunta naman dun pero we're still enjoying our time,' Kate said. Fumiya echoed the sentiment, affirming that they are indeed talking about their future. 'I know [the] right time will come. Definitely. 'Di ba? That's why now we focus on ourselves. Pero siyempre, I want to be with her,' he said. When probed about the hypothetical possibility of moving to Japan if they were to marry, Kate expressed a strong willingness to experience it. 'Kasi siyempre I grew up here. Pero experiencing that, his culture as well, I think it's good kasi I have to know,' she said. 'I have to know his values more, his culture. So yeah, I'd love to. I'd love to experience that.' Like Kate, Fumiya also answered positively when asked if he's willing to transfer to the Philippines for good just to be with her. 'Yeah, siyempre!' he said. Kate and Fumiya welcomed 2025 in Taiwan and then headed to Japan, where they did a kimono-themed photoshoot and went strawberry picking. In March Kate told Fumiya, 'My world is better because you exist.' The two sparked dating rumors in August 2024 after they spent Kate's birthday in Hong Kong Disneyland. — Carby Basina/LA, GMA Integrated News

Nadia Montenegro, Baron Geisler celebrate daughter Sophia's birthday together
Nadia Montenegro and Baron Geisler came together to celebrate the birthday of their daughter Sophia. On Facebook, Nadia posted a few snaps of the casual celebration, where Baron and his wife Jamie Evangelista were part of the group. "A day of celebration! Thank you Lord for the lives of Samantha and Sophia! Happy birthday my babies," Nadia wrote in the caption of her post, which she uploaded earlier this week. In a "Fast Talk" interview last year, Nadia admitted that Baron Geisler is the father of her daughter Sophia, who was turning 18. She said she was coming forward with the truth to 'put an exclamation to everything.' In the interview, Nadia said Sophia has always known Baron was her real father, and that they have always been in contact. Later in 2024, Sophia appeared in Mikee Quintos' "Lutong Bahay" with her mom, and shared how she frequently talks with her dad. Nadia also shared how she did not tell Sophia about it and only her late partner, Boy Asistio, and Sophia's siblings knew about her father. But Sophia had always known. She was the one who confronted Nadia when she was 16 years old. On Thursday, Nadia Montenegro, who is a member of Sen. Robin Padilla's staff, was named in a Senate incident report about an alleged use of marijuana inside the premises of the chamber. According to the report, Nadia denied smoking inside the ladies' room and using marijuana. On Friday, it was reported that Padilla's office asked Nadia to take a leave of absence amid the controversy. — LA, GMA Integrated News
