Criselda Crescini and Divina Kuan met for the first time, when Criselda was performing on the stage of CCH in Hamburg during the Miss Germany-Philippines pageant contest, when Divina was just 14 years old and worked there as an usher. Divina stated to be so impressed by Crescini's performance that she complimented her later on, resulting in Crescini inviting her backstage and befriending the young girl. They stayed in touch ever since.
