It seems that Janine Gutierrez actually had some impact on Krishnah Gravidez's life years before she made her mark as Miss World Philippines 2024. In an Instagram post, Krishnah heartwarmingly shared the story of when she first met Janine. It wasn't at an event or at a filming site of some sort. Krishnah and Janine's first meet-up actually happened at a fast-food chain. Oh, and it wasn't some random 'Let's get something to eat' moment for the two. In fact, at the time Krishnah was still working as a service crew for the fast-food chain's drive-thru!
Krishnah wrote on IG, "Last event, I met Ms. @janinegutierrez... again. I was too stunned to say something other than words of appreciation for how mesmerizing she was that night as if nothing had changed ever since I saw her 5 years ago in a drive-thru. Yes, while I was still working at a fast food chain."
The 24-year-old beauty queen mentioned how her short but sweet chat with Janine had so much impact on her life right now. She shared a screenshot of her Facebook post back in 2019 when she shared Janine telling her, "Ang ganda mo naman. Sumasali ka ba ng pageants? Sali ka Bb. Pilipinas." The photo showed Krishnah taking a selfie from the drive-thru counter while Janine was beaming with the kindest smile she could give from her car.
Five years later, here we are witnessing Krishnah's journey as Miss World Philippines 2024! "Thus, aside from my belief in the power of MANIFESTATION, I affirm that WORDS have a fateful weight in someone's mind. May we CHOOSE to be kind, uplifting, and thoughtful to everyone we meet—even if they're strangers or service crew members in a restaurant. You'll never know how much of an impact you leave on them," Krishnah declared.

Included in the post was Krishnah's short message for Janine. The two were together at a lifestyle magazine's event where they took photos together. On IG, Krishnah flaunted how Janine had successfully encouraged her and sent lots of support for Krishnah who had been dreaming of bigger things since the first time they met.
"Ms. Janine, you may not remember our first encounter, but you spoke LIFE to me. Thank you. I may not have joined the competition you suggested, but I finally landed on the biggest quest of my life as a Miss World Philippines," the beauty queen wrote.
Of course, the post reached Janine, as it should! The award-winning actress charmingly reacted to Krishnah's story. She wrote in the comments section, "Oh my gosh this is so cool!!!! You did it!!!! Congratulations on everything and so happy to see you again."
Krishnah responded to Janine by saying, "@janinegutierrez will forever be thanking God for your life!" Now, this is what we call a meaningful encounter!
