FAMOUS: Pia Wurtzbach gives advice to Miss Universe Andrea Meza of Mexico


Miss Universe Andrea Meza of Mexico

At the media launch of her latest endorsement for Dr. Coco recently, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach gave advice to newly-crowned Miss Universe Andrea Meza of Mexico.


“Many people may tell her ‘live the moment’ but what I told her in my private message to her was ‘back up your files, make sure, save all your moments and memories and invest in a good camera! Let's give her a chance, let's give the newly crowned queens a chance to introduce themselves and prove that they deserve the crown. Let's give them a chance. I'm excited for Andrea, and I mean that," Pia said.


The German-Filipino beauty queen also gave a message for our very own Rabiya Mateo who finished in the top 21 of the 69th Miss Universe Competition.


“Take your time. I know what you feel, alam ko masakit, but you’re not going through this alone. You are already a star and like the symbol of sun that you represent, you will shine even further," Pia told Rabiya.


Pia also said that she is proud to support locally-made products that are world-class like Dr. Coco hand soap.


“Dr. Coco is one of my best discoveries. I have been an avid user ever since I opened my first bottle. The moment you dispense the product on your hands, you will really notice the difference. It’s like applying lotion while you wash. Plus, the scents, pang world-class talaga! It’s also the first time I’ve heard of a product that continues to protect from 99 percent of bacteria for up to four hours after handwashing," said Pia.
