MIC DROP!
Miss Universe Philippines Ahtisa Manalo eloquently answers the question and answer portion during the #MissUniverse2025 competition in Thailand on Friday.
Q: As a global ambassador or citizen, what will be your contribution to humanity?
A: I want to be the hope of people. I come from a very poor background. I started pageants at 10 years old to put myself through school and to lift my family out of poverty. And if there's anything that I want to show the universe, I'm here right now. I'm standing as Miss Universe because I was able to get myself out of any situation because I was hardworking, I was persistent, and I fight for what I want. Thank you.
CONGRATULATIONS, QUEEN! ๐ธ๐ป
