Filipina
pride reigned supreme in beauty pageants as Miss Universe Philippines Ariella
Arida was hailed as Miss Universe 2013 3rd Runner Up.
Arida
was called last in the Top 16 for winning the MU 2013 Online Voting, conquered
the stage with her Yamamay swimsuit and her evening gown on the Top 10 and
probably gave the best answer when she entered the Q&A portion in the Top
5.
Her
Q&A question was: What is the solution to the lack of jobs among young
people starting their careers around the world is education.
"For the people who have lack of jobs, I do believe
that we people should invest in education and that is my primary advocacy
because if we all know that everyone of us is educated and well aware of what
we are doing, we can land into jobs and we could land our careers in the
future. So education is a primary source and it's a ticket for a better
future."
Winning the 7th Miss Universe Crown for Venezuela is Gabriela Isler, who
had this for her winning answer to judge Steven Tyler's question "What
is your biggest
fear and how do you plan to overcome it?"
"For me while one may have a
lot of fears but nonetheless this is nothing negative. I believe we
should overcome all of our fears and this in turn would make us much
stronger and mostly we can become stronger persons. As soon as we
overcome our fears and we are sure of ourselves then we can face any
challenge."
Arida
makes it 4th in a row in the Top 5 for the Philippines, after Venus
Raj, Shamcey Supsup and Janine Tugonon.
