Binibining Pilipinas 2024
[edit]On April 5, 2024, Bungay was announced as one of the 40 delegates to the 60th edition of the Binibining Pilipinas 2024 pageant, representing Pampanga.[9][10] The pageant was held on July 7, at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City, Philippines.[11] Bungay would progress to the question-and-answer portion, where Miss Universe 1969 Gloria Diaz asked her, "If you were given 30 minutes to talk to the public, what would you talk about?". Bungay would state that she would voice and affirm her support for the SOGIE Equality Bill, emphasizing a communal responsibility to uphold equality.[12]
If I would be given 30 minutes to talk to the public, I would like to talk about the passing of the SOGIE SC bill. Because, in celebrations such as pageants, this community has contributed so much. And in this regard, we can give back to them by supporting this cause because as an individual, it is our responsibility that we ensure that everyone is treated equally despite their SOGIE.[13]
Bungay went on to win the pageant as Binibining Pilipinas Globe 2024, being crowned by her predecessor Anna Lakrini. As a winner of the pageant's 60th edition, Bungay and co-winner Binibining Pilipinas International 2024 Myrna Esguerra received a cash prize of ₱1,000,000, the largest cash prize in the pageant's history.[14][15]
