I was happy to be able to predict the 5 consecutive winners of Miss Universe: Colombia-Paulina Vega 2014 Philippines-Pia Wurtzbach 2015 France-Iris Mittenaere 2016 South Africa-Demi Leigh Nel Peters 2017 Philippines-Catriona Gray 2018 I’m sad that my correct predictions did not continue in 2019. I was predicting Ireland to win and yet she didn’t even make the first cut! What a huge disappointment on my part. Anyway, Iris & Catriona are my favorites among IMG winners so far.

Pia has cited Iris as the MU she is closest to because they simply just click. Iris deserved to win, although I wouldn't be mad if Haiti did as well. Pia's farewell gown that night is one of the most memorable in the pageant's history. That viral photo of her onstage taken moments before the announcement of the winner, looking down while holding the crown is quite ICONIC.

I did not care much about Pia in 2015, but her charm and integrity grew on me during her reign. You can't help but loving her more. Look at her facial expression when crowning Iris. Unfortunately, I can't say the same about Catriona. Despite the large number of fans, I can't bring myself to wanting to know more about her. On the other hand, Pia's words somehow go hand in hand with the way she carries herself: "confidently beautiful with a heart".
