Binibining Pilipinas 2021

In 2021, Arnold joined the Binibining Pilipinas 2021 competition. During the question and answer round, Arnold was asked: "Given the reach and power of social media, do you believe that genuine freedom of speech exists in the Philippines nowadays? Why or why not?" She responded:

First of all, freedom of speech is a basic human right that we all must remember. It is important for our democracy. With our upcoming election, we definitely need freedom of speech. For example, on Twitter, we are limited to a few characters, and what I have seen in these Tweets is powerful. That has helped me think about who I'd like to vote for in the upcoming elections. Thank you.

At the end of the event, she was crowned Binibining Pilipinas International 2021, succeeding Bea Patricia Magtanong. She also bagged the '' Jag Denim Queen'' and ''Miss Careline'' awards.
