Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray was named one of the top stars on TikTok Philippines in 2021, earning recognition alongside fellow local creators Andrea Brillantes and Margielyn Didal.

The video-sharing platform announced its top content creators both in the Philippines and abroad in its “Year on TikTok 2021” release today, Dec. 7.

Gray was one of the personalities named TikTok Philippines’ Breakthrough Stars, alongside dancer Niana Guerrero and beatboxing couple AD BEAT. The beauty queen’s TikTok channel, which has more than 3 million followers, features her travel videos and makeup transformations.

Didal, meanwhile, made it to the platform’s top “Powered by Joy” channels, which features accounts that “brought so much joy” in 2021. Through her TikTok page, the athlete opened up on her journey to the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, as well as showed some skateboarding tricks.

Didal shares the “Powered by Joy” list with art-making channel @krisydays and “Squid Game” star HoYeon Jung’s lookalike @janioooooooo.

The platform also recognized its top dancing videos including Brillantes’ dance cover of “Pajama Party,” Guerrero’s cover of “Booty Wurk” and actors Vin Abrenica and Sophie Albert’s dance video of the song “September.”

Aside from creators, TikTok Philippines also revealed the top trends and communities on the platform this year, including vaccine-information videos from “#HealthTok,” the gaming community TikTokGGPH and the musician community TikTokMusicPH.

TikTok Philippines earlier gave recognition to several creators through TikTok Awards 2021 last July. P-pop group SB19 received the Top Celebrity Award from the platform this year.  /ra
