Captivating Katkat was the winner of season 2 of Drag Race Philippines.[6] She was one of the first three trans women to compete on the show, along with Bernie and M1ss Jade So.[7] Captivating Katkat won two challenges, including the Snatch Game challenge (in which she impersonated politician Joy Belmonte)[8] and the acting challenge.[9] She placed in the bottom two of the branding challenge, which saw contestants create shampoo commercials. She lip-synced against Bernie to "The Power" by Ann Raniel, but both were saved from elimination.[2] Captivating Katkat was a top four finalist, before winning.[10]
