Miss Universe 2011 Lelila Lopes LIVE!

[@primeclash1957]

Amazing to see how much Leila has evolved in the last nine years! I hope for her and Zozi to keep striving for more success in the future.

Awww Leila. 😢😭 You have no idea how much you've inspired when you won Miss Universe. Black White Asian Caucasian. 🇵🇭 ❤❤❤

[@VH-sf5nu]

Leila got the support of whole Brazil in 2011. At that night 100% of the audience was behind her, calling Angola and the crowd went crazy when she won! It was great! Leila should have worked more in Brazil, a country with great African heritage.

[@fadalerabrasool3563]

I still remember how in miss universe 2011 leila became a crowd favourite following the evening gown. thats how i knew leila is deserving winner

[@jntravelbuddy2589]

When I was a teenager I saw black queen won in 2011. As an Asian, I would love to hear my country won too but I didn't come up to my mind that black queen should not be accepted. Leila was a start of something new to all black girls in MU org. to have equality and respect❤️❤️Lovelots to all black women❤️ 👏

[@jeromejackson6111]

Leila, was not the first Black MU. she was the fifth winner. in MU history. Janelle Commiisong of Trinidad& Tobago was the first winner in 1977. Her historic win broke ground for all black women & girls everywhere. Love ya ! Leila.

[@kkingmusic13]

I love hearing that from you I think since black Beauty is not shown much around in the world like in magazines & fashion, people don’t really want to see it. But Leila is beautiful like seriously !!! I call her a Barbie dipped in chocolate! It’s no denying I think if you ask a child who has not been shown the white standard there hole lives they would play w a Leila lopes doll every day!!

[@alexpoochi]

I am an Indian and we always feel African women are so beautiful and talented . I really don’t understand the set of people who in this age and time would send such nasty comments. These women are strong independent women and definitely deserve respect.

I found myself fighting back my tears so bad... This was both sad and amazing... Black child your dreams are valid❤️

[@rebeccam.7249]

true filipino fans just want there country to win everyday and all the time it so annoying,like I watch video about all the miss universe so far for 2021 and they always there being extra that omg Philippine will win ,philippine is the best then some be so extra. all I'm saying is that the filipino fans need to stop being extra and toxic because if they keep doing that people will start hating on them and I don't think that it will be cool at all just saying.

The one and only miss universe after Broke lee to said Terima Kasih.. ❤️❤️ thats Big word 🙏🏼. My forever Queen . Such a sweet and humble Queen. Loves from Indonesia

Leila was the only black girl in the top 16 n she beat them all... It's sad that ppl r still very mean on social media esp towards zozi, given how strong n deserving she was during the final night competition...

[@rebeccam.7249]

wait what? how are people mean to her zozi is so nice what happen that people are being mean to her?

[@stephenanderson1594]

Well before the 2011 and 2019 pageants I predicted Leila and Zozi to win and they are SO deserving and EARNED their crowns. We pageant community that are not racists need to band together to fight racism in pageantry. I am tired of seeing the racism and bashing towards pageant contestants and especially if they are black. I know exactly who these haters are. I think pageants should do like some European football (soccer) leagues have done and be more vocal during the broadcast that racism will not be tolerated. As an African American pageant fan and supporter of black queens I am ready to defend them online and any other queens that experience bashing like Catriona.

[@jeromejackson6111]

Stephen, I always look forward to hearing from you, your perspective & insightful commentary is always fresh & provocative. You always call out racism & hold people accountable. Much love & props.

[@_EveryStepofTheWay]

I really think this was a very natural, positive and fun conversation between Leila and Zozi. The support from Leila is so sincere and heartfelt. Congratulations to you two!!

[@nolubabalodlali7050]

Wow, I am smiling from ear to ear watching these beautiful ladies, Leila is the first person I thought of when Zozi won Miss Universe and to listen to her sharing her experience with Zozi is totally amazing. As a dark skinned, beautiful black woman I am so passionate about representation and inclusion, it brings me such joy to see beautiful strong Queens supporting each other. It also shows that we have a long way to go, the fact that Leila managed to notice the huge gap amongst South Africans in Cape Town as an Angolan citizen is an indication of how much work still needs to be done to empower black people (mostly women), not just the young but black women of all ages. As a mother and a wife I have come across so many women who have been put down to the point that they are not aware of their worth, of how precious and valuable they are and it truly hurts. Let me love and leave you ladies before I start crying. Keep up the good work.

[@richjaneRN]

Glad to see leila bloom into a very beautiful and intelligent lady over the years. so confident, just like a real queen. And yes, she's beautiful MU from Angola. So proud to see both of these African beauty. We love you.

[@cleenegame]

Leila stood out from the outset. When i saw her pic weeks before the pageant, I picked her out from the rest. I believed she would win. Zozie's answers are some of the most moving in MU history. Regarding Leila's question on race and inclusivity, I guess it falls on every Miss Universe's shoulders hereafter to carry this torch whether they are Caucasian, Latina, Asian or Black.

[@carlomagno1196]

You were my favorite Leila! I am from the PH and initially an arrival photo of Shamcey in a floral dress was posted in MU website, I declared her in my SocMed that she would win. But two weeks into the pageant, I saw a photo (which there weren't many) of you in swimsuit and I completely turned 360 degrees in my top bet to win the crown. On the coronation night, you just shone the brightest. In your yellow swim, you radiated and popped up onstage and completely overshadowed everyone including Shamcey. During the EG competition, you were classy and gorgeous in your gown. And you have great fans from PH rooting for you to win. You had it in the bag! And sidenote, this is the first time I saw Zozi's face up close and she is dropdead gorgeous. That magnetic aura no wonder tipped the bar for her and made the judges made her win. Of course, she is the most intelligent since Catriona. As a proud Asian guy, I always find black women the most beautiful bar none. My fave beauty queen/TV personality of all time is Kenya Summer Moore. African women and men (wink) are LIT!

[@unspeakablefpagenathanfpag1953]

I dont think it is Philippines, there are a lot of countries who are vocal about pageantry. Dont judge right away without proof and mentioning countries and during her time 2011 latin countries were the power houses and she said about hair and body so maybe she is talking on that region where their asset to be miss universe the physical aspect.
