She lost a lot of weight after winning the national crown so she was in shape for Miss Universe. Online credits this as 56 kgs and her weight has been consistent ever since she won the title. We know her successor Catriona Gray was plum and is listed at 55 kgs with a 3 inch height difference between them. Can this be possible? Also, can a 5'9" girl weigh 52 kgs as her predecessor Paulina Vega of Colombia claims to weigh?

Hope you can ignore my last comment. I have made edits and maybe you can publish and reply to this one instead.
@Rob, would you say Catriona is actually 175cm? Because in several of the stills that I saw when she was standing up straight next to 184cm Steve Harvey (perhaps 185-186cm in his dress shoe), the pictures are quite surprising.
When she was wearing her black dress and in 3 inch heels, she looked 1 inch shorter than Harvey.

Let's say that in the black dress she is 183cm. Okay?
When she was wearing the red dress and in 6 inch heels, she looked 1 inch taller.

Here in the red dress let's say she is 188cm.
If she is 183cm in the black dress with 3 inches of heels, considering the rotation of the ankles and the height of the shoe platform, she would have gained about 2.6-2.8 inches, which would would make her true height about 175-176cm.
If she is 188cm in the red dress with 6 inch heels, considering the ankle rotation and the 2-inch height of the shoe platform, she would have gained about 4.8-5 inches, that would also make her true height around 175cm.
Don't forget the podium she is standing on is raised by 1cm, so she already has a 1cm advantage over Harvey in those photos, not including her heels. While Harvey was wearing dress shoes that barely give him more than a 1.5cm lift (very shallow dress heels). If Harvey is actually 184-185cm, and in those shoes he was perhaps 186cm, I fail to see Catriona being any taller than 5'10", most likely around 5'9"-5'9.5" (175-176cm). Catriona needed to be 6'3" (190-191cm) and a full 2 inches taller than Harvey in the 6" stilletos for her to be considered 178cm (5'10").
Oh, I also think that at this point she deserves her own page.

Editor RobSomewhere around 5ft 9 (maybe on the nose) is a better bet than almost 5ft 11.
Mimi said on 29/Dec/18
@Oliver that is a certain probability. I can't see her above 5ft9.5 and below 5ft9

@Mimi,I remember that Catriona was listed as 5'9.5(177cm) when she competed in the Miss World 2016 peageant. Maybe that's her real height and probably later upgraded to 5'10 when she competed in Miss Universe. The same with a girl from my country who was first described as 5'8.5 in a local peageant but when she went to miss universe, she became listed as 5'9.
Hope it helps you.

But do you think Catriona could be under? Like 5ft9.5ish?

Rob how tall do you think the new Miss Universe Catriona Gray from the Philippines is?
Here she is with Pia

She's listed at 5ft10 but i think she's shorter. Here she is with Pia Wurtzbach and I think she's wearing at least 2 cm bigger heel.

Pia (autocorrect tried to change it to pis) can have the 5'7" that she claimed in 2012! She is very pretty and a nice person too!

Rob is she considered very tall for a Filipina? Also how much should you be taller than average height to be considered very tall?
Editor Rob

Editor RobYes, she is very tall. If you consider the average as around 5ft range, then 5ft 7 is quite significant - I think maybe 5-6 inches above the average gets into that very tall zone.

Thank you for your reply, Rob.
That woman is Raquel Pelissier(Miss Haiti 2016) and she was listed 180cm but I do think she's taller than that because she towered over everyone on stage during the pageant.
Do you think she could be at least 6ft?
Editor Rob

@Rob,if Olivia Jordan is 5'10.5-11,than how about the other girl?
She is miss universe 2014 from Colombia,she is listed at 5'9 but I think she looks taller than that.

And now Google is listing her at 1.75m or 5ft9 even when she was measured at a supposed "5ft8" on a Philippine talk show

I think they thought she was 5ft8 because she was at the 5-8mark but it's really not accurate. She's only 5ft7 at most since she's not over the 170cm mark am I right Rob?

I was close friends with a 169 filipina and she never seemed to comment on how tall she was. I remember her saying she dated short guys back in the philipines so maybe thats it?
IDK the average height there but I'm sure its at least 5'6 for the upper class

She's a fellow Filipina and I would say she can even look a weak 5ft7. Anyway, it doesn't matter cause she's considered a really tall girl here. I am almost 5ft8 myself and people treat me like a giantess.

She looks very short next to the other contestants. So that definitely puts into perspective how tall the miss universe girls are. I wouldn't be surprised if most of them are 178+. Certain a few of them were pushing pass 6ft barefoot

Editor Rob well I wouldn't go over 5ft 7, but 5ft 6? I'm not sure on that.
