A day after she was crowned 2015 Miss Universe and as the Philippines’ first Miss Universe in 42 years, Pia Wurtzbach spoke to Inquirer Lifestyle’s contributor Albert Almendralejo about her victory:

“It is a very non-traditonal crowning moment. But i believe that if it was meant for me, then it it would be for me.”

Wurtzbach, who is Lifestyle’s contributing writer/stylist/model, will now have a Miss Universe schedule managed by the prestigious beauty pageant.
