Wearing a sparkling blue ball gown, Pia shined as she walked around the stage and waved before the crowd to give her thanks and bid goodbye to her reign.
“Being Miss Universe has offered me tremendous opportunities to draw attention to the issues close to my heart such as bullying, and HIV and AIDS awareness. On top of my ‘thank you’ list is my mother. I am the woman I am because of the woman you are. To my sister Sarah, you are my rock. Paula, Esther, Shawn, the rest of the MUO team, you are family to me. To my Miss Universe sisters, I’ll see you again soon. To the worldwide Pianatics, salamat! To the next Miss Universe, fasten your seatbelt. At the end of your reign, you’ll have grown in confidence, maturity, and faith. For me, the title was a dream come true, but the work continues. Kababayan, maraming salamat po. Mahal ko kayo. Thank you for everything,” she said.
Forever Miss Universe, @piawurtzbach #missuniverse
