00:00Aren't you tired of your videos being posted by fans year after year?

00:06I saw that it's a coping mechanism.

00:10I laugh at the fans.

00:12Of course, I'm very grateful.

00:14But I'm very hopeful as well that we'll have a fifth Miss Universe in the Philippines.

00:18With all these learnings from your 2018 up to now,

00:21what should we send?

00:23Because things are changing again.

00:26I know.

00:27I was also surprised by the landing of the top five.

00:57So I'm excited for her as well.

00:59But who we should send?

01:01I just think someone who really wants it.

01:05I love seeing girls with eagle factor because I relate to that.

01:10And I love to see consistency.

01:12Because for me, and I know other people online have different opinions,

01:16but for me, as soon as you step out the door on any given day,

01:20you give 110%.

01:22I understand that drive won't look the same on every girl.

01:26But it can be manifested in different ways.

01:28It's not to say that if she doesn't appear to be eagle, she's not an eagle.

01:31Or she doesn't want it.

01:33But I think being able to communicate that is really important.

01:37So yeah, I'm excited for whoever we send next.

01:41Can you do it again?

01:43No, I can't.

01:45I'm already a fairy godmother.

01:47Miss Universe All-Stars.

01:49Miss Universe All-Stars.

01:51Don't do it.

01:53At least you're self-mentoring actively.

01:56I love to mentor the girls.

01:58Teaching them your witty ways.

02:00Yeah, not necessarily in say a coaching term,

02:02but I'm always willing to give advice.

02:04And if they approach me, I'm happy to give whatever help that I can.

02:08Because I remember when I was a candidate,

02:10so we're going to look up to the former queens,

02:12the wisdom that they have.

02:14Because as I mentioned, it's really so much pressure to be a Miss Philippines.

02:18I would even argue that maybe only five countries in the world

02:21maybe feel that much pressure in the realm of Miss Universe.

02:24Just because we have so much fanfare and love and admiration for pageantry.

02:29So it can be a lot.

02:30Especially when you consider these girls are 22, 21, 24.

02:34I mean, that's so young to have that much pressure.

02:37So yeah, I really do put myself out there and message them as soon as they win.

02:41And even throughout their year to say,

02:43Oh, I'm here if ever you need anything.

02:45You don't grumble?

02:47No.

02:48Or you make a program?

02:51Like a playbook?

02:53Playbook!

02:54But it's not in the pipeline at the moment.

02:57But yeah, why not?

02:58Just a cat reaction to the continental queens because it's the first time.

03:01Yeah, I don't really understand the system.

03:04As I understand it, it's like who scored high,

03:07they became continental, but in the premiums.

03:10I think it's like an org chosen.

03:12Oh, okay.

03:13I think it's great.

03:14I mean, at least it's included in other travels,

03:16Chelsea and the other queens.

03:18And she's with her roomie too, Miss Peru.

03:20So it's great that they're besties and they get to experience that together.

03:25So I think it's wonderful.

03:26I mean, more countries representing alongside the Raining Miss Universe.

03:30I mean, I hope they group projects together like Goodwill or Charity, etc.

03:36So I think it's a nice image of collaboration.

03:39That it's not just the one reigning throughout the whole year,

03:42but a collection of queens.

03:48.
