MANILA, Philippines — Looks like American supermodel and host Tyra Banks is still not over Catriona Gray’s iconic “lava walk” as she raved about the new Miss Universe’s walk anew.
Tyra took to her Twitter and posted a video of her “volcano strut’ in swimwear side-by-side Catriona’s “lava walk” during the Miss Universe 2018 swimwear segment.
The top model captioned her video “#LavaWalk meets the #VolcanoStrut, Catriona Gray!” while tagging Catriona.
Catriona posted an Instagram story on Tyra’s video post and responded that it is her dream to walk beside the top model, too, as she gushed over the new recognition.
“Would be a dream to walk beside you irl (in real life), @tyrabanks,” Catriona said.
On January 11, Tyra also tweeted that she cannot stop thinking about Catriona’s walk.
The Miss Universe Organization responded to this tweet saying it is looking forward to seeing the two “lava queens” walk together, too.
We would love to see you and @catrionaelisa #lavawalk together! ??

“We would love to see you and @catrionagray #lavawalk together,” the organization said.
Last month, Tyra praised Catriona for her slow-motion spin during the preliminary swimwear competition. She said Catriona’s catwalk skill exudes "Pinoy power to the max."
And OMG back at YOU!
You did it!
And that walk and confidence?
I mean...NEXT LEVEL FIERCE!!!
TyTy approves. ???? https://t.co/HJPAUgyZ11— Tyra Banks (@tyrabanks) December 17, 2018
Tyra also said Catriona’s walk and confidence during the final show of Miss Universe is “next level fierce” which she approves.
The social media exchange between Tyra and Catriona made it on Vogue in the same month.
Catriona is the Philippines' fourth Miss Universe title-holder.
