Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach sent out her congratulatory message to Michelle Dee, the newly-crowned Miss Universe PH 2023.
We love to see queens supporting each other!
Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach wrote a message for Michelle Dee, reigning Miss Universe Philippines 2023 who was just crowned on May 13.
"A little late but...Congratulations, @michelledee!" Pia tweeted on May 15.
Michelle replied saying, "You're never considered late! Thank you, Queen! Thank you for all the advice you'd give me whenever I'd run into you." Michelle said in response.
Pia added her reaction to Michelle's big win through a comment on Michelle's recent Instagram post. She praised Michelle's authenticity in representing herself onstage.
"YES!! Beautiful! I love how you stayed true to who you are and did not let pageant trends or chiefs dictate how you should be. It stood out perfectly! Please maintain that til Miss Universe! We want to see YOU. Michelle Dee. Don't let other “chiefs” dictate how you should represent yourself. As Esther advised me before, too many chiefs ruin the fun. And at this point everyone will act like an expert, even strangers. It's YOU Michelle who's gonna be on that stage. And that's a once in a lifetime experience. Bring the Philippines with you, yes, but still be YOU."
