Before joining Miss Universe Philippines, Michelle made it as part of the top 12 in Miss World 2019 held in London.

With her participation, she is expected to be competing with a set of newbies and veterans who will vie for the competition to be held on April 30.

The title is currently held by Bea Gomez of Cebu City who made it to the Top 5 of the pageant held in Eilat, Israel last December.
