“I would love to thank BingoPlus for the support that they have given me to compete for Miss Universe, this time for the 73rd edition. Of course, to my whole supportive team behind these lenses, thank you so much.” Chelsea said with heartfelt emotion. “I don’t think there's anything more I would like to ask but the prayers and your loud cheers no matter where you are in this country, in the Philippines, or anywhere in this world—universe, rather.”

While Chelsea was fully geared up for the Miss Universe crown, BingoPlus, and all Filipinos supported her online and on the ground.

Recently, BingoPlus hosted a watch party for the preliminaries, attended by media, influencers, and former Miss Universe queens. Among the guests were Miss Universe Philippines 2023 Michelle Dee and Chelsea’s MUPH batchmates, including Mary Rose Guiral, Elle Hollman, Miss Charm Philippines 2024 Kayla Carter, Miss Supranational Philippines 2025 Tarah Valencia, and Miss BingoPlus Universe 2024 Maica Martinez.

In a press conference after the watch party, Michelle shared advice with Chelsea as she headed to the coronation night. “Honestly, when you're on that stage, especially after leaving the Philippines, a lot of the heavy lifting has already been done. So my best advice is to have fun once you reach your destination. Create as many memories as possible because it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.”

At the same time, the excitement of watching the preliminaries was shared online through the exclusive livestream feed on the BingoPlus app and website.
