Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray is Jollibee’s Newest Ambassador |
“I feel incredibly honored to be part of the Jollibee family and this successful homegrown brand that makes me proud to be a Filipino,” shared the 25-year-old reigning queen. “Being able to associate the new and improved slow-melt Jolly Twirl with my own slow-mo twirl makes this opportunity a great fit, and it’s a bonus that I absolutely love this dessert!
Announced through a video in which she starred in with Twirlie, one of Jollibee’s mascots that resembles its sundae ice cream, Catriona recalled her excitement during her shoot for the said commercial, where Catriona is depicted doing her signature Lava walk with Twirlie.
“Twirlie and I have our own special twirls, but I must say—the best twirl ever is now the Jolly Twirl!” Catriona said.
According to Jollibee Global Brand Chief Marketing Officer Francis Flores, the addition of Catriona Gray to the Jollibee family is an honor for the home-grown brand.
“We at Jollibee feel very honored to have Catriona join our family,” Flores said. “She has shown incredible grace, empathy, and Filipino excellence on the world stage brought home the most coveted crown, and continues to help and inspire Filipino children through her advocacies. She called us iconic, but she’s an equally iconic figure—an iconic queen that captured our nation’s heart.”
Asked about her favorite items on Jollibee’s menu, the reigning Miss Universe said that she’s fond of the Chocolate Sundae Twirl.
“Whether you’re craving for something indulgent or having a celebration, it's perfect for all occasions talaga,” she said. “This new and improved Jolly Twirl is the best twirl ever because it’s now thicker, creamier, and slower to melt so we can enjoy it longer – together!”
