Pia Wurtzbach Slams Bashers : " I Haven't Forgotten My Advocacy!"

Earlier today, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach posted an instagram message to her bashers regarding Miss Universe's charitable platform which is the HIV/AIDS awareness.




Here's the full text of her instagram post :

Just to get some things straight. I haven't forgotten about my advocacy, ok? I'm so tired of people complaining that I haven't found "the cure" for HIV when clearly I said I would raise awareness. I'm not magically gonna come up with a potion that cures everything.

 I know the whole being chosen out of 79 from all over the world, getting crowned in a beautiful gown in front of billions of people is all good. But are you really getting the point of my message during the final Q&A? I said I would raise awareness. Putting the spotlight on it so we can start talking about it. Just like the during the competition, I wasn't posting my everyday pageant activities and that upset a lot of fans. They thought I wasn't doing any effort. 

I just really did not like posting anything online. Why? Cos I didn't feel like I needed to. Instagram isn't part of the judges panel. Am I gonna carry my phone around with me and take every selfie, every photo I see to ease your worries? No. I don't work like that. I put my phone down and I work. And did it work? Yes. Sometimes the plans you carry have a bigger chance of reaching a larger magnitude if you're just focused on the work. I'm good with letting people know about what I'm doing or what I plan to do. I'm a woman of my word. What I say in public is a promise. Why worry about updating everyone on social media and in the process losing the experience because you were on your phone the whole time staging photos. 

Now ask yourself. Did you get yourself tested? This year the numbers have gone at an all time high. But maybe that's because more people are getting themselves tested making our statistics more accurate. I can't work a miracle here. I still consider myself as a student and I'm learning more and more everyday. So before you go saying that I haven't done anything, the mere fact that you're talking about how little I am doing charity work for HIV/AIDS, isn't that awareness in itself? You're thinking about it, right? Talking about it, correct? Bashing me in the process BUT still getting the message out there.


I don't have to spell it out.
Oh and here's a bikini photo. Just so I get your attention. 😊🙏✌️️

Miss Universe Ex- Boss Donald Trump wins US Presidency

Donald Trump bought Miss Universe, Inc., in 1996 from ITT Corp.  In 1998, he changed Miss Universe Inc., to Miss Universe Organization, and moved its headquarters from Los Angeles to New York City.  The new US President has owned or co-owned three beauty pageants: Miss U.S.A., Miss Teen U.S.A., and Miss Universe. (All three of which fall under the Miss Universe Organization parent company.)

In 2002 Trump entered into a joint venture with NBC, which in 2003 outbid the other networks for the TV rights. 

NBC and Univision turned down  the organization in September 2015 when NBC cancelled all business relationships with the Miss Universe Organization and with Trump in response to his political comments about illegal immigration during his campaign for the presidency of the United States.

Nuestra Belleza chairwoman Lupita Jones, Miss Universe 1991 from Mexico, announced that her country wouldn’t be participating in the 2015 pageant. Former Miss Universe Zuleyka Rivera, of Puerto Rico, dropped out of the panel of judges for Miss U.S.A. And Colombia’s Paulina Vega, the 2014 Miss Universe, declared his remarks “unjust and hurtful.” Trump’s response, in part: Vega was a “hypocrite” because she didn’t give up her crown.

Though he sold Miss Universe last year, the presidential candidate has always had an interesting relationship with the pageant world.

It will give candidates (who are the stars of the show) a chance to introduce themselves.

Up to the first years of the last decade, candidates were introduced by an announcer, a bit too fast and kinda boring.

Miss World 2016,  66th edition, will be held on  December 18 2016 at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center, National Harbor, Washington, D.C., Maryland, United States.
