Pia Wurtzbach on How Winning MISS UNIVERSE CHANGED HER LIFE! | Miss Universe

[@KrisTinna41]

I love Pia. She embodies what a Miss Universe is for me. Someone who never gives up on her dreams (joined the national pageant 3x); a wonderful spokesperson and take the jobs and the jabs at being a MU (winning in a controversial manner); most of all, shows what a MU crown can bring, and positively uses the opportunities that it sent her way (Still very successful, inspirational, and influential even after winning almost 7 yrs. ago). Thank you MU and Pia, for showing that the title is more than just on the surface, and the crown is more than just an image. ❤🇵🇭

[@Retroglamamour]

0:42 _”I was the friend of a friend. The girl at the back”_ 😭❤️ Pia, you have no idea how many of us relate. Hearing your story is the most inspiring thing. Thank you for telling us, we will always persevere because Pia persevered and got her dreams 💖

[@beautyandthebeast1465]

Yey..she is missing universe but still you feel she one if us!!so relatable!!

[@livinginAU]

Pia is the epitome of never giving up on your dreams. Imagine competing Bb. Pilipinas for 3 times and still people doubted her at that time. What a strong woman she is. Really confidently beautiful with a heart

[@OfficialMissUniverse]

Indeed ❤

[@desqua2497]

She reminds me of deshauna barber who competed 6 times at miss usa before winning the 7th time

[@ykramtv9830]

Kris Aquino already prwdicted she is good at Bb. Pilipinas back 2002 game ka na ba. Sabi niya. Subrang tangkad ni Pia isang apak niya apat sa akin. Host palang si Miss Kris noon sa game show na iyon.😍😍😍so when I saw her on Bb. PILIPINAS back 2015 sabi ko ito na sinabi ni Kris. Noo. Nasa Saudi na ako noong manalo siya. Wow. My age and her age almost close I watch her short role in K2BU back then along with Bea&Shaina.

[@jamemarkgarcia7586]

This is the main reason why pia won its her Relatability and being a relevant queen up to now. I still got a teary eye hearing all her experiences before winning. Shes still my number Miss Universe for me.💓 Gandang Filipina indeed🇵🇭

[@drama_tv123]

She has achieved so much today but yet she is the same from heart. No arrogance, no chance in the tone of voice and no change in attitude. I just loveeeeee this lady a lot. Love from Nepal❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@amitp3238]

Every IMG Miss Universe is very relatable to most of the people around the world. Pia is telling her experience here which is very relatable to every struggling individual. I love this girl. Lots of love from 🇮🇳

[@LifeOdysseyMotivation]

Thank you Amit. We really love Sushmita, Lara, and Harnaaz. By the way, Sushmita Sen is one of our beloved queens here in Phil. Namaste.

[@kitdan6705]

That’s what she wanted to be known for, a queen who is relatable and will let everyone know that a beauty queen is also a human being just like everyone else.

[@vincetubio2235]

Here's another interesting trivia, when Sushmita Sen won Miss Universe in 1994, almost 50 or 60 of newborn babies in the Philippines named after her

[@wolvesexes1401]

From someone barely having enough money for food and a place to stay, she now is the highest paid Filipino celebrity on IG and one of the highest paid Instagram influencers in the world alongside Ellen and Chris Hemsworth. Literally winning in life!

[@LifeOdysseyMotivation]

@@thisisalsoindia5247 Thank you so much my friend for loving our queens Pia and Catriona. Well, we in the Philippines love Indians. We have so many Indian residents in our country. I worked in the middleast for over 10 years, most of my colleagues are Indians, all my managers, and supervisors, and the owner of our company Landmark Group is an Indian billionaire, Micky Jagtiani. This company actually built a school for underprivileged children in the Philippines. The project is called "School Chalo."

[@mr.bhogta3157]

She made me cry... Her story made me emotional... IMG creates Best Queens.

[@whosayjose]

Pia is just so pure and genuine. The experiences she had made her the humble person she is. She will be our forever Queen P!! 👑

[@misscamay]

I was not a fan before but her humility won me over…other queens just used the fans and became unreachable and unapproachable after getting the crown but Pia has become more accommodating, giving and grateful…that’s a real queen!

You have faced so many life struggle but never gave up. That is why, you always win. Truly inspiring Queen.

[@EllaB33]

Funny how I was just reading her IG post re:Mental Health and here she is on MU’s YT. I admire her for her continuous work to educate, enlighten her audience/followers on many issues be it HIV/AIDS or Mental Health. She’s not afraid to show her flaws and weaknesses which is why she is the most followed. I also like her non glam photoshoots where she doesnt mind to show her stretch marks or pimple. I stan a queen who’s not Facetuned all the time. She will be relevant for a long time!

[@LifeOdysseyMotivation]

I agree with you. She is just naturally beautiful even without makeup or glam stuffs. She is an inspiration to many.

[@PS-wj3yy]

Pia is the embodiment of a relatable human being. She is just like anybody else struggled through life, hardships, failures and eventually a successful Miss Universe. Behind the glitz and the glamour is this beautiful person with lots of wisdom.

[@XtianJade]

you can sense and feel how real she is because she speaks from the heart. that's always been her strength and that's what makes pia a one in a million miss universe.

[@damn671]

Pia is one of the most likeable, relatable, genuine and authentic Miss Universe I've seen in over 20 years.

[@nelmaceda]

As Pia opened the IMG era , we need now someone transformational, inspirational and iconic queen that will do the same amazing things that Pia did way back 2015 . ❤

[@billysantiago635]

She deserved the iconic Title , Confidently Beautiful with a Heart ❤️ ♥️ ❤️

[@justdont2378]

She had the highest score for every part of the competition, every single judge also had her as their winner so there's no way the crown was ever Colombia's, the threats Colombians sent her, calling it a cooking show and saying she stole the crown was unreasonable- She was the clear winner and she will always be Miss Universe 2015, not Colombia not anyone else, only Pia, only Miss Philippines Edit: Since people are misinterpreting my comment, this comment is FOR THOSE who DON'T move on, it's not for every Colombian or some sort of attack against Ariadna, this is so people don't bring it up in the first place, no sane person is gonna argue against Pia's win once they know she won all categories are they?

[@winstonespanola190]

Move on! We got the crown already. It's not even an issue anymore so stop it. Moving on can help you embrace reality so, do not create an argument stating the past because it already happened and we already accepted what had happened, as well as the Colombian people so never bring it to the table again! Spread love, no hate. ❤️😍

[@LifeOdysseyMotivation]

@@winstonespanola190 agree! and the video is just about queen Pia and her struggles and inspiring message for all of us, and the topic is not about her and Ariadna. Some people are just a pain in the ass really and still making issue and stressing themselves. ampf!!!

Don't have to revisit that. Spread love

[@justdont2378]

@@winstonespanola190 Not everyone has moved on from it, you may want to think that way but there are still people out there calling Pia "the one who stole Colombia's crown" my intent with the comment wasn't to start new arguments but to immediately shut down those who try to start one since I SAID "She won all categories, the judges voted for her to win" by saying that it means it really was never Colombia's crown so from knowing that, why would anyone try to argue against the judges' decisions? So again that comment wasn't made to start an argument, but to prevent one by giving out facts from behind the scenes

[@Rawr-tf6fw]

The only miss universe who experience being 1st runner up in just a minute, the only miss U who did not have her victory walk on live TV ,the only miss U who has mixed reaction when announced she won,the only miss U who started to voice out her advocacy away from flowering words or world peace on the past MU, The only miss U who became well known even combine in trump era ,the Only miss U that changed the standards of Pageantry and I believe she became the most famous miss u

I was there when she lost the second time on her national pageant. I was rooting for MJ Lastimosa but when I saw her leaving with her luggage, I felt sad for her. I will always remember that day.
