Miss World 2013 Megan Young revealed that she initially did not have the confidence to join the world of pageantry and her beautiful journey to the crown started from her gut feeling.

The beauty queen shared the sentiment during Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach's latest Queentuhan episode on Facebook with other beauty queens Carla Lizardo and Bianca Guidotti on Tuesday, June 30.

During the live chat, Megan said that pageantry is really a massive confidence boost.

“I think it's always at the back of my head na pageantry is so interesting but I don't know if it's for me,” she said.

Until one day she woke up feeling hyped about joining the decades-long beauty competition.

“It's kind of weird to say kasi people might be, 'Bakit ganu'n 'yung feeling niya?' but it's just a feeling na I woke one day and I have such a good feeling about it. I don't know else how to explain it. That's really just gut feel lang talaga,” she added.

Megan also shared her experiences during her Miss World pageant days.

“It was a bit scary, honestly. Kasi may mga pageant girls na 'kong nakalaban and sanay sila sa pageants and how things go. I was really a newbie in pageants.

“I think people have a misconception kasi galing kaming showbiz, so they always think na baka alam niya na 'yung ginagawa niya pero 'yung totoo, minsan kailangan mo lang din talaga [dayain] 'yung confidence mo,” she added.
