MISS UNIVERSE 2018 REVIEW | Who Should Have Placed | Top 5 Theory 

I believe Vietnam didn’t use a translator to show USA/Australia/Colombia (who joked about her language barrier) that she could attempt to speak English. That gesture spoke VOLUMES to me.

*Puerto Rico was better in prelims than during the finals. During the finals, she still tried to beam confidence and smiled, but you could see in her eyes and overall facial expression that the competition got in her nerves; she lost the spark. She was nervous and shaky, and we at the venue saw it. Before the final 5 was called, Puerto Rico's face was almost all white, like she sprayed vinegar on her face. South Africa was my 2nd runner up, Venezuela my 1st runner up. And Philippines. God, was she wonderful! She was the girl to beat from day 1, and no one - absolutely no one - came close. She just has this air of majesty about her, and when she did her walk and those turns during the finals, she combined her majesty with a subtle sexiness, which was magic. One of the most complete Miss Universe winners of all time, in my opinion. Undoubtedly a well deserved win. Even Denise Quinones, Lupita Jones, and Gabriela Isler who were at the audience were clapping for her, and all had smiles whenever it was her time to walk and do her thing on stage. Natalie Glebova also said she's the most complete girl, that's why she won. Philippines has been sending really great girls, and hope they continue to do so. Catriona Gray, you were amazing! Have a beautiful reign as Miss Universe. Love from Canada* 😘

Philippines was the only one who answered the Final 3 question (final word) correctly. Venezuela and especially South Africa did not answer the second part of the question. SA had a copy and paste answer from Top to Top 3. Philippines was sincere and gave a strong answer even for Top 5. The marijuana question is difficult and she did well.

Hi, Nia! I am afraid of being harsh in my comments, but I got very angry all the time with people that seems to really ignore all the controversy with Miss USA during Miss Universe, specially the situations with Miss Vietnam and Miss Cambodja. To be honest, I really don't understand the support you give to Miss USA 2018. I assume it is because she is your countrywoman. What you guys can't see, in my opinion, is that beauty is more than face and body. If we consider only this, she is not even better than any other contestant in the Top 20. For the records, I am not saying she is not beautiful considering the beauty patterns in media. For me, as a someone outside of American culture, she is so a character from a movie "Clueless". That controversial attitude with Miss Vietnam and Miss Cambodja were so childish, clearly from a spoiled girl that doesn't understand that there are more than USA in the world. I really believe she was there (in the top 20) because USA put a lot of money in this pageant, but the fact that she made the cut is so ignoring she wasn't able to be Miss Universe. It is almost awarding something that should be reprimanded. The girls that move to the next round (after prelims) should be able to be Miss Universe, all of them! That should be a criteria! And for me, after all these facts, she wasn't a deserving candidate to be there. It would be great if you guys close to MISS USA ORG could give some advices to them, maybe preparing the girls to compete with people that deserve respect. You should to say them that there is no hierarchy when we talk about different cultures. Oh, my God, I am so angry with it.

Miss Philippines in her gown....oh my....to me she was like jessica rabbit in the flesh! :)

Sorry, I disagree about Miss USA being worthy of getting a spot in the top 10 (or top 20 even). She doesn't have the stature (height, form, beauty) of many of the others. You would hope that intelligence would make up for what was lacking. But her exchange with Steve was cringeworthy at best, not really because of Steve, but because of how awkwardly she tried to extend the conversation. Additionally, her controversial video with Colombia and Australia also demonstrates that she does not exercise good judgment.

philippines is the best that night. no question at all... she is the queen. agree?

The top 3 all spoke beautifully you are right, but there must only be one who did the best in q&a portion among the three. I was astounded by Miss Philippines' answer who I "think" answered the question eloquently that purveys so much substance. Let's accept the fact that she won because she has exhibited an exceptional determination and absolute dedication, plus her wits and authenticity. I can still smell insecurity and disgust from those whose bet didn't win and she did, or perhaps can never accept the fact that she was the strongest candidate.

The wings on the shoulders on swimsuit are called “ chofas” It’s an architectural feature on every Thai roof structure. Using them on their shoulders just good exhibition of Thai culture thanks

Miss USA was arrogant. Didn’t deserve to be in top 20. Glad she didn’t go any further.

Let’s say their all Pretty and Beautiful but once they speak individually that’s the time you’ll see real deal ..and obviously Philippines StandsOut Among The Rest.

What I love about Catriona's answer in the final question is she went back to her roots- the children and you could feel she's so passionate about it and speaks from the heart. She told a story that's inspiring! ❤

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Did you know that Miss Curaçao 🇨🇼 Akisha Albert is Philippines 🇵🇭 ‘s lucky charm just like Olivia Jordan 🇺🇸? When Olivia Jordan 🇺🇸 joined *Miss World 2013,* Megan Young of the Philippines 🇵🇭 won. When she joined *Miss Universe 2015,* Pia Wurtzbach of the Philippines 🇵🇭 won. Same thing with Akisha Albert 🇨🇼. When she Joined *Miss Earth 2014,* Jamie Herrell of the Philippines 🇵🇭 won. When she joined *Reina Hispanoamericana 2017,* Teresita Marquez of the Philippines 🇵🇭 won. And then she joined *Miss Universe 2018,* Catriona Gray of the Philippines 🇵🇭 won. Lucky charm indeed!

Well, Cat has to be very sensitive about the marijuana thing because it's a huge timely issue in the Philippines. It might be a so-so answer for you but as a contestant, you must have the safest yet the strongest answer since all countries with different beliefs are watching. That's respect and embracing diversity. That question was really the toughest one compared to the questions for the other contestants. How about you, what's your opinion about the legalization of marijuana?

Philippines answered perfectly for the top five question and answer if you are coming from a country where war on drugs is an ongoing situation. Anything more would put her in a tight spot. She answered neutrally, but with her opinion said strongly.

what? Ms. Nia Sanchez, did I hear you right? Did you really say Ms Philippines’ answer was just “okay”, lol? Ms Philippines had the best answer! If you see all the video reactions on youtube, all of them knew it was going to be Ms. Philippines after the last Q&A because she had the best answer! Someone even said, Ms. Venezuela and Ms. South Africa will need Jesus after Catriona’s answer. Were we watching the same pageant? lol

I ABSOLUTELY loved Akisha from Curacao!! I wished she made it to top 5! Following her on social media, she seems like a very sweet, personable and down to earth girl... and then she hits the stage, and FIERCE!

And I forgot to say Miss Poland and Miss Hungry are not only beautiful but also very polite, well educated ladies with good manners and they would not have a problem with the representation of the organisation Miss Universe or any other organisation. They behaviour is a very good contrast to American, Australian, Mexican and specially Colombian represents who were very rude, greedy and nasty.

Hi nia, nepal is improving in the context of Beauty peagent and i think you should praise us for placing on the very 2nd year in MU ☺

This reminds me of Lu and Carson during the pageant, clearly in denial of how dominant Catriona was and how obvious it was that she was the clear winner after evening gown and final question.

NIA, MISS USA didnt even know how to walk! come on! she shouldnt have been in the top 20 to begin with. there were more deserving girls around.

I love CATRIONA GRAY.A well deserved winner. I love Miss VIETNAM too and CANADA.

After the Final 3 Q&A "I honestly didn't know who was going to win" - Nia My reaction: 🙄 Even if you were ms South Africa's mom or ms Venezuela's sister you'd know that Philippines' final answer was the best among the three. She only mentioned how Philippines made an ok answer to her top 5 question but not her amazing final answer. Just so you know, regarding the question that was asked to her, there's not really much you can say about the legalization of marijuana. Medical benefits for cancer patients, No for recreational use... Those are the only two things that you can point out.

I am from the U.S., a citizen one, but let me tell you our Miss USA is a bully/gang banger from day one. Besides she's not a Ms. Universe material. Made mistake of choosing her to compete in this pageant. Normally Ms USA-Universe is talented with dignity and poise and beauty which is only a bonus. I wonder what happened this year's (2018) choice. Also, Ms. Philippines Q&A was thought and intelligently delivered and the other two girls Q&A were just like a content of their "resume' "

Really obsessed with Miss Universe 2018😉😉💕💕😘🍓🔆⭐⭐⭐

Nia I am not bashing anyone including you but I will give you my opinion as you are giving yours and you are also asking for mine: 1. Catriona Gray's answer in the top 3 Q&A re: what was the lesson in life that you would apply in your reign as Miss Universe? She was the only one that answered from the heart about the hardship of life in the Philippines affecting the children and that she made it her life's mission to help them as Miss Universe. That, and her beauty and performance with the swimsuit, that slow turn in the prelims and that Lava gown went viral catching the attention of TYRA BANKS!!!!! 2. Miss Venezuela had a beautiful attitude after Catriona was crowned, smiling and hugging the new Queen of the Universe, and was the first to greet her as Cat returned from her triumphant first walk. 3. Miss USA was not worthy to be in 20, she should have been replaced by Miss Peru who was more beautiful and statuesque and no record of being backhandedly mean to fellow contestants who does not speak English, just stating my opinion and not bashing, and did not have a high pitched voice and a very nasal laugh. Just adored Deshauna Barber whoeheartedly rooting for the Philippines unlike you who is very biased towards Miss Puerto Rico and Colombia. Well we won and they lost so better luck next time. Maybe if they someone as beautiful, kind hearted and talented as Catriona Gray, they might win. 4. Only 5 Asian countries are super fans of pageants: Philippines, India, Thailand, Japan, Korea,Vietnam, and Indonesia. The rest are lukewarm but I agree that Europe and Africa should be lumped together as they are the weakest countries. 6. Catriona is phonetically pronounced as Ca-tree-ona. 7. I am a physician of 40 years and with this wanna be physician from South Africa pouting in the background as Miss Venezuela was smiling and hugging Ca-tree-ona, she won't last in medicine for being a sore looser as she will be eaten alive by my profession, and by removing herself from the Miss Universe instagram account, and when bashed put herself back in it. 8. I don't believe you and MJ Lastimosa were good friends in Doral in MU 2014. Did you go to Palawan with her during MU 2016? I think you did but I may be wrong. 9. The Philippines is the number 1 beauty powerhouse in Asia because we have 16 major crowns of the major beauty pageants: 4 Miss Universe, 6 Miss International, 4 Miss Earth, 1 Miss World. 1 Miss Supranational. As you said we are one of the nicest people on earth, always smiling and fun loving, just don't get on our bad side by talking more about Latinas and just talking 15 seconds about Miss Philippines and 3/4th of your video about Latinas and Miss USA. I get it. That is who you are but please play fair. 10. Why don't you do a tribute to the Miss Universe by doing some reserch on her. She may make you a fan of hers yet.

I’ve been waiting for this. Nice review Nia! The wing things are actually a nod to Queen Sirikit, she is known for having two birds in her shoulders and I think they incorporated that. I actually like it 😜 Happy New Year!

It’s 2021 and I’m still watching this. Love you Nia!

all i knw is.. Ms Philippines frm Day 1.. she already claimed it. her aura is really wonderful compare to others.. 😉

Interpreter (spoken) Translator (written)

Ahh! I was actually thinking about that the other day-the notion of combining Europe and Africa together, rather than grouping grouping Africa and Asia.I also think the Americas should be addressed too! hmm, how about not doing regions and placing based on merit haha

Nepal's up close video was outstanding. Her runway isnt the best and that is what rule her out of the top 10 nonetheless she is on of the best contenders with the greatest speaking skills. No wonder she made it to the first cut. She MUST have scored pretty high in the preliminary interview.

At last...I was waiting for your reaction video ..Took a while but it was worth it .. Your opinions were all on point..You are one of those youtube reactors who I considered "legit" since you have experienced being on Ms.Universe. PHILIPPINES really deserved to win.... Thank you... I'm looking forward to your future reaction videos. 👏👏👏

What is the most important lesson you’ve learned and how will you apply it to your time as Miss Universe? VENEZUELA: I grew up in a family filled with women and each one of them taught me something very important. But what I always remember is by working hard and chasing dreams and by having courage and strength and willingness to achieve these dreams, we can achieve anything we want in this lifetime. SOUTH AFRICA: Throughout my life, I’ve been exposed to both those who are privileged and underprivileged and what I learned is we are all human. We all want to be loved, we all want to belong, and we all want to be seen so we should treat each other that way. PHILIPPINES:I work a lot in the slums of Tondo, Manila and the life there is poor and very sad. And I’ve always taught to myself to look for the beauty of it and look in the beauty of the faces of the children and to be grateful. And I will bring this aspect as a Miss Universe to see situations with a silver lining and to assess where I could give something, where I could provide something as a spokesperson. And this I think if I can teach people to be grateful, we can have an amazing world where negativity could not grow and foster and children will have smile on their faces. Miss Nia i think Philippines got the best answer dont say all of them have good answers. the answers of Venezuela and SA iis far from the question. it says that how will you apply what have you learned. Venezuela answer where the application there? South Africa wheres the application there?. Philippines said I will bring this aspect as a Miss U to see situations with a silver lining and to assess where I could give something, where I could provide something as a spokesperson. And this I think if I can teach people to be grateful, we can have an amazing world where negativity could not grow and foster and children will have smile on their faces.

Hey Nia, Nice review. I have a few comments 1. I don't share the same thoughts on Steve with you. I'm no way did I notice he putting the girls down. It's comedy and it worked well. The stuff with Miss USA happened with Iris in 2016 and she still won plus the talks with Steve was not scored. Maybe you just don't like him. 2. During the final 5 Q and A. I believe PHILLIPINES has one of the best answers asides Venezuela and after the top 3 Q and A, it was very obvious to me who should win. 3. Those girls were amazing and after every cut it felt like we lost a potential miss universe. 4. Curacao was spot on. Surprised she didn't make top 5.

Two comments: a) I liked the wings during the swimsuit round. I believe there were an homage to traditional Thai sculpture. b) I'm in agreement that lumping Asia and Africa together seems illogical. My suggestion. Keep 20 semi-finalists. Have 10 wildcards. Then 2 each from Asia, Africa, Europe, North America & Caribbean, Central & South America. I think this better balances the fact that traditionally the strongest delegates come from Asia and Latin America. Having 5 come from Europe is simply too many given the current caliber of European delegates.

I think Miss Nepal can speak very well. She’s gorgeous too and that face which is cut like the beauty queens of the past (e.g. Sushmita or Ashwarya) however she wasn’t that prepared as the other girls. I saw one of her interviews, she said went home to Nepal and tried her luck and won - she doesn’t have any pageant experience yet she won MU Nepal. However, I think during the MU final competition, she was psych out by the other girls. I really think she could be Cat’s strong contender if she had that “preparedness” in her.

I thought it's unfair for other girls to compete with Catriona gray... How come a queen compete with princesses ... Hahahaha Catriona always a queen ... I watched the pageant to see who will be the 1st runner up... Because I n everyone knows Cat gonna win it... Catriona slayed everything ... Congratulations Philippines ... Huge love from India 😍

I really wish they did away with the Continent categories because a lot of strong countries always get left out or at least change the continent categories

Your video was so balanced, well thought and perfect! Don’t worry if it’s a long video, actually Pageant fans love long videos!

I think the only reason they put Africa and Asia Pacific together was to even out the number of girls, so that the chances of a contestant making it is almost equal. Both Africa/Asia Pacific and Europe had 31 girls in each category.

I am glad Colombia didnt made it. USA and Australia shouldn't have been placed at top 20.

The wing things are a statement piece that the queen of Thailand herself popularized, you can search it of you want ☺, probably a way to still showcase Thai culture even in the swimsuit competition.

👑 Bb. Pilipinas 2019 👑 Universe • Gazini Ganados • International • Patch Magtanong • Supranational • Resham Saeed • Intercontinental • Emma Tiglao • Grand International • Samantha Lo • Globe • Leren Bautista • 1st Runner up • Aya Abesamis • 2nd Runner up • Samantha Bernardo •

this gorgeous lady is a latina herself and represented USA . and y all complaining miss philippines should be representing australia cuz she is not pure??? lol seriously yall trapped on precolonial period

Are you joke??? Yes dear, POLAND and HUNGRY are ready to be Miss Universe. In both countries live millions of beautiful, intelligent and smart women. Miss Poland or Hungary are more beautiful than for example miss USA. And I would like to remand you Miss Canada, Marta Stepien is also Polish. Polish economy is 25th in the word so is higher than Thai for example.

Hi Nia! I’m 16 years old and I’m starting my pageant journey:) I’ve watched your videos for about a year to help me prepare. I think you just have THE MOST genuine personality; following your RU-vid and listening to your advice have helped me so so much! PS-I’d love to talk to you one on one❤️

Thanks for your review! This competition had SO many potential candidates (one of my personal favorites was Vietnam), but Catriona basically won the crown since she entered the competiton. I too was nervous about her answer during the Top 5 Q&A. The best answer in my opinion during that round was South Africa’s. But during the Final Q&A there was absolutely no doubt that she was going to win after her answer. Venezuela and South Africa did good too but they didn’t answer it as throughly as Catriona. South Africa started off the question strong, but failed to answer the second half of the question. If only she followed up with that second part, the competition would have been even more TIGHT! All in all I am happy with the results!

How can you say that after you heard their answers on final 3 questions you have no idea who's gonna win? I watched it live as well and it's very obvious to me that Philippines has the best answer and should win?? Or probably your not listening well to the q and a? How can you say that all of them gave a very good answers?? Venezuela and south africa did not even answer the question well because they did not mention how they will apply their experiences on their time as miss universe??only miss Philippines did..I'm not trying to bash you..I was just a little bit annoyed..peace.

I can't believe you said that about Miss Jamaica. Most people had no idea how you made it to the top 5 in 2014.

Oml. I've been waiting for your review since last year! 😣 Thank God it's finally here!

Never had a dull moment listening to your reviews, opinion and feedbacks.. and oh! I love your dad's hypothesis..

FINALLY! I waited for like 2 weeks for this review!

I agree with you about Steve Harvey trying to make fun of the girls. Super awkward moment for the girls! More vlogs Nia! :)

Also, anybody else notice that during the Final 2, while Steve was giving the first runner up spiel, Miss South Africa actually said, "It's you. It's you." She knew Cat won. I think Cat knew she won when Miss Venezuela was announced as 2nd Runner Up.

Philippines came prepared and obviously the ONE TO BEAT but no one has beaten her. Congratulations, Philippines!

OMG!!! I’ve been waiting weeks for this! 😂❤️ Happy New Year to you and your family Nia!! 👑🎉

I was waiting for your explanation as to why you thought the Philippines won, but I didn't quite hear it in the 20-minute video. Especially since it was in the video's headline. I was hoping you would at least comment on their final answers and that being the main reason Catriona brought home the crown. Aside from your displeasure of Steve, I also wanted to hear your thoughts on the apparent snub by commentators Lu and Carson, who both gushed about South Africa, Venezuela and Puerto Rico, but never complimented Philippines (other than Carson's lame comment that she's still in the running, when her strong performance made her look like a frontrunner to everyone else). But I enjoy watching your videos and your candidness and passion in expressing your thoughts! Thanks.

Jamaica is actually 19 and she's really an intellectual being, a big heart, MATURE and very stunning. She just had a moment as you mentioned. But she deserved that spot. Reach out to her...it will all make sense. Overall good review.

oh queen you don’t have to introduce yourself (so humble ) we remember your face and that same fire gown you have 2015 👸🏼

Wow! I've been waiting so long for this!😂😍

When she says " and cat has big shoes to fill." a moment of silence.

Catriona’s answer might’ve been an “okay” answer from the top 5 questions for other people but it’s actually really good. Marijuana is not legalized in the Philippines and the country’s government is very against it. They are not liberal as other countries. She did good for her answer because at the end of the day she’s going home to her country that she has to respect.

did not realise that i was able to finish this video without skipping.. lol.. i was like nodding and agreeing with you all the time! haha such a very sensible and rational woman! a talk show or more vlogs from you please! 5 star content!!

I'm sorry but the moment you showed bias towards miss usa, I stopped listening. And you bashed steve alot especially regarding miss usa. I'm sure I'm not the only person who cringed at her OVERSHARING rather than at steve. She lacks the class of a Miss Universe and that's just me being kind describing her

Came across your RU-vid channel and had to subscribe! Also you made us nevadans proud when you won Miss USA & definitely rooting for you to win MU❤️👏🏻💃🏻

1. Agree on the changing of regional assignments. Or better remove it and have the top 15/20 based on merits and performance. 2. I had guessed 1 out of 5 for European region (Great Britain). Lots of surprises from this region. Agree that Kenya and Iceland should have been selected. 3. Nepal had a strong preliminary performance. I know she would make it after watching her short clip on RU-vid, she is a good speaker. Also, she generated the most money during the charity auction event, that was the first time I heard her talk. Beautiful face too. 4. I like the swimsuit, it was designed by the Thai Princess, probably the reason as to why the “little wings” were there to incorporate a Thai touch to the outfit. I maybe wrong but it looks more like Thai architecture inspired than wings. It looks like the the edges of the Golden Thai Buddhist temples. 5. Philippines’ question during top 5 is a hard one. Marijuana is a very sensitive topic to talk about and a better way of answering something that is controversial is to talk less. She chose not to provide a lengthy answer, which I know she is capable of doing, to limit remarks that might be viewed negatively by others. 5. My top 3 are Philippines, Venezuela and Puerto Rico. PR was flawless and so charming the entire time. 6. All 3 were gorgeous but the best answer was given by Philippines. It answered both questions raised - the lesson learned and how to use it on her reign as MissU. It was a complete answer. Others: l am okay with Steve’s overall performance (7/10). I enjoyed Neyo and the inclusion and touch of the Thai culture.

You always give the best, fair, and honest review. Love u always, Nia!

Ms. Philippines answer's in top 5 was based on her opinion, it doesn't need to be politically correct. All she did was to state her opinion with conviction and confidence. Top 3 was not only based on that Q&A, it's also based on the over-all performance (weighted) and "IT" factor.

Cool video! Totally agree with your Steve Harvey Comments (DFCK?) ! Keep the good work! :)

17:41 what? After top 3 final question and answer, you couldn’t tell who would win? it was so obvious Philippines gave the best answer. The question has two parts: a life lesson and how to apply the lesson as a miss universe. Philippines was the only one who actually and completely answered the question. South Africa kinda rehashed her answer from her top 5 answer (“we are all human”) and answered only the first part; ended her answer too soon. Venezuela kinda answered the question but her answer sounded generic (reach for your dreams). Philippines actually gave a visual concrete life lesson and explained how the lesson applies to her: finding beauty in a poverty-stricken place where she does her charity work and applying that mindset of hope and gratitude as a miss universe to help others. So i am scratching my head why you couldn’t tell who would win based on the final 3 answer. Philippines did well in prelims, swim suit, gown (that fiery gorgeous gown). And with that amazing final 3 answer, she was obviously the winner.

I love the way you put details in every contestant and opinions about the wqy they moved and dress. LOVE IT. And for the record I was hoping that Ice Land would make it to the top.

NIA!!!! Ive waited for this review for so long😆

To be honest, youre the first one who said what catriona said was "ok". thank you for the honest reaction anyways.

I dont see any sincerity on this lady that she like Philippines. The only reason she comment nice about Philippines is to draw attention from the Filipinos . So she could get more subscribers. She knew that Filipinos are a great supporters of Miss Universe. I like olivia jordan instead.

In my head I was like, "YASSS QUEEN SPILL THE TEA SISTER!"

I didn't like Puerto Rico gown. It's been worn many times and you could see her underware thru the gown. I wanted Puerto Rico to wear yellow or purple. Just my opinion.

SO agree with you on his "Costa Rica" pronunciation! She didn't even understand him at first when he announced her country during the pageant, and rightfully so.

I agree with you about Steve Harvey and Sarah Rose. It was very uncomfortable.

I had the same thoughts about the top 5 too! And for the top 3, the one who gets called first had the "okay" answer, while the last one called had the best answer. I've been observing that since 2015! 2015: USA, Colombia, Philippines 2016: Colombia, France, Haiti 2017: Jamaica, Colombia, South Africa 2018: Philippines, South africa, Venezuela And if you watch their top 5 answers, the call out order actually makes sense

Thank you Nia Sanchez for mentioning El Salvador. El Salvador never gets a chance because the sash doesn't carry much weight like USA does 😞

11:10 -- AGREE 100%.... The African and Asian continents should stand alone respectively

African countries do not like sending delegates to Miss Universe because of past bad experiences and most African countries go farther at Miss World. Fact. And MUO does not have a huge franchise of African countries. Just a handful. I wish that the geographic category was different. And as for the wings in swimsuit. The wings are Thai inspired. I liked it. Thanks for your videos.

I just watched your newer video and in that video you mention that we should watch this video. So here I am! I LOVE this video. I agree with almost everything said. Puerto Rico was my girl and she was just perfect. I am glad that you were able to see what I saw. I’ve been watching this pageant since 1993!! EVERY YEAR! My heart broke when I saw Puerto Rico didn’t make it specially because she was just perfect. I was so disappointed with your newest video, but this one gets thumbs up 👍🏻 from me. You are so right in almost everything. My opinion about the division between regions: They need to STOP 🛑 IT! is getting old and the fact that they are doing it just to give chance to other countries that doesn’t even go far in the competition is pointless and take away a chance for a strong candidate to be able to compete!

Maybe Harvey was not just happy of Miss USA this time bcoz her bad mouthing Miss Vietnam. She is a beauty queen but talk trash towards Miss V. I LOVE USA!!! But this time they sent a not so adorable admirable personality as beauty queen. If I am Harvey I too will be embarrassed thhat she did not represent well USA. Cant blame him 😕

I agreed on your opinion about europe and africa, because for last 2 years especially, it feels like some of european contestants were just filler to the placement. Edit : about swimsuits, I'm also agree with you opinion about using wing + fabrics ala VS. It's a bit distracting. I prefer previous format when you just using fabric and focus on your catwalk

Nepal was better than USA, AUSTRALIA and INDONESIA..... That's why she made it. She was an amazing role model. She was so well spoken and most importantly she was respectful to every fellow contestants unlike USA. 🤬

Well actually miss Philippines came to take the crown home and the other girls are just fighting for the second highest placement which is the first runner up, she's so consistent since day 1!

one of the best Miss Universe. and Catriona she's the most prepared Miss Universe ever. She is enjoying, having fun and spoke well during the whole pageant. Even on shows people agreed that she is very well prepared and she just enjoys the show.

Excellent job in your commentary, keep up the good work!!!

Venezuela is so sweet. I love her. Vietnam is my sentimental Miss Universe. USA well, she's a bigot.

Thank you Nia! Been waiting for this review for soooo long! Lol! Love from the PH 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Because of Miss USA bad behaviour, Steven did NOT support her and neither Miss Universe Organization! Is it so difficult to understand? Miss Colombia shame!

I agree with you on Groupings. GROUPINGS should be abolished. Americas and Asia Countries are strongests in recent years. It blocks the opportunity of other girls to move on to Top 20, like Africa's Kenya and Angola or El Salvador and Ecuador. I never expect you to talk to much and so passionate about this. Too much juicy info and theories. Im loving it. 😍 Hahaha. Love from Ph.

I think Philippines did very well in the top5 question. It was short, concise, and on point. I think it was only South Africa who answered better than her in the top5. The others did not gave strong answers as well.

Ive been waiting for this the entire time. Checking your IG and your page for new upload .. 😘😘😘

Finally.. I miss u

Tottally agree with the europe and africa idea but i think after the top3 q and a philippines slayed the question and from there it is clear that she is the winner ... been waiting for your review , more power and see yah in your next review ..

Aside from the existing controversy w/ Miss USA and Australia, I read from an article that Colombia wasn’t supportive of trans women participating in Miss Universe. Panel probably got word of that and nipped it at the bud. Don’t think they’d want that representing the Miss Universe title anyways

Awesome review Nia. Im a fan of yours. pls continue doing reviews. you are so fun.
