Miss Universe Philippines 2022: Celeste Cortesi Interview (Pasay) - From The Earth to The Universe 

She is more Filipino than some. Her heart for the indigenous people is remarkable and worthy of emulation. She will bring focus to the plight of a people who are largely ignored and neglected. Thank you, Celeste.

Her biggest advantage is her Italian sensibilities. You can tell she's very well read. Everything she talked about had substance and meaning. I was very impressed by her.

Her response are nothing but pure honesty, sincerity and simply authentic, she is the queen you all can reflect too

I like the way Celeste answer all the question, full of wisdom, authenticity and expressing her freedom of herself.

She actually looks more Filipino with less make up, very naturally pretty, I hope she accentuates more of this come finals night👌

she’s really good in comm skills.. she speaks with conviction and authenticity, that’s why she’s our MUPH2022

she needs to be taken seriously this woman knows what she is talking about, look at how she articulated about her advocacy impressive ✨👸♥️

Wow omg I just watched this and I’ll say wow. Celeste is such a natural. She deserved her win. I felt like I was included in this conversation too because she is so great and authentic. 💜💜💜

I hope she gets to represent the philippines in the miss U pageant. I'm impressed with her authenticity and her desire to be a Filipina. Her advocacy is also unique and surprising. thnx Luis for this interview

praying for her success in her journey. she deserves to have a spot in the universe! Good luck Miss Cortesi...

Miss Celeste is like a magnet, even though you are rooting for the other provinces. She has this aura that can make you think twice ;) We will just pray for her journey.

AND SHE IS THE MISS UNIVERSE PH 2022 NOW... SO EXCITED TO SEE HER COMPETE SOON. 🙏❤️🤟

I love Celesti’s advocacy! What she said about ancestral domain and land is so true. Up to this day still there a lot of IPs who dont have the paper or have the rights on their own land. It is so true also that our IP brothers and sisters are one of the most marginalized sector in the society and it is really heart warming as a social work student to see and know someone who advocates IP rights ❤️ Her advocacy is one of a kind ❤️

What a beautiful, genuine, intelligent, strong, and confident woman Celeste is! She deserves the MUP crown and the honor to represent the Philippines. People who are harping on about her comm skills are foolishly equating comm skills to speaking with an American accent. What a pathetic low IQ thinking that is! She's actually very well spoken and her accent is very enchanting. And to those who have the nerve to say 'she needs improvement', just look at you!

shes smart Im impressed. definitely she can be our next Miss Universe Philippines n hopefully the new Miss Universe 2022!

Her transformation its like night and day. Heavily rooting for her!

damn its already 1 am in the morning and im a little bit sleepy but sisss this interview of her gives me chills and im happy listening to her ,,,,,, GOODLUCK CESLESTEE!!!!!

She just solidified her spot in the Top 3 with this interview. Thanks for featuring her, Luis. Love her growth, authenticity, advocacy, confidence and comm skills. You can tell how determined she is to be the next MUPh queen. Let set our hopes high. Ciao bella, buona fortuna!

To me, I feel like she is so real. I like that about her. I also like how fast she answers a question and the same time her answer is very sincere, very natural. I love her.

I like Celeste to win Miss Universe Philippines....She changed & improved immensely....Good luck to her...Rooting for her to win. Go for it Celeste you deserve it.

I love her advocacy, to be honest. I was also thinking about that since indigenous people are marginalized and sometimes, opressed and disrespected. Indeed, they should be protected and preserved. Celeste is also sincere and very resilient. Imagine learning everything and rising above the circumstances all at once. I wish her all the best in Miss Universe. Thank you Luis for this interview. Also, for everyone, avoid using derogatory words to representatives. We want to empower women so bashing would just defeat its purpose.

wow the purity of your heart is reflected from the advocacy you chose...you are a woman of real substance!

She's absolutely beautiful🤗I'm rooting for you Puerto Rico and South Africa❤ love from South Africa

She talk with substance.. I really amazed how she talk with convincing.. Good luck Celeste to your MUP journey..

Feel ko parang sya ang maging Miss Universe 2022.. She's telling the truth I mean she's not pretending who she is. Good luck po...

Grabe Nanlalamon pala ng MIC si Celeste Cortesi!! Isa siya sa mga dapat bantayan sa MUPH 2022!!

She's very engaging and so real! She's a threat!

I can feel her simplicity and authenticity. I thought before, when she won Miss Earth Philippines, she has an attitude like a diva, moody and a snob. But im totally wrong. We should not judge a person based on our own perception. We dont know what a person is going through. So yea its nice that she has improve not just her speaking skills but her overall character. She is now outspoken and open that pageant fans would know her more deeply. She seems to be a strong woman with a determination to succeed and reach her goals and for that she is my top bet for MUP22.

Excellent interview Luis Excellent in all aspects Excellent Ms Pasay Celeste Cortese brilliant move Such a powerful woman who blossom into diamond Lots of lovelovelove

I can see the sincerity. I can feel her pain, her joy, her struggles and her triumphs the way she delivers her answers. I am very proud of her. She is relatable. I am praying and hoping you will win MUPH Celeste and you are a FILIPINA!

We simply can't please everyone. But I believe she's really prepared. I don't think her accent is that bad. It's Italian what can we expect. She's very authentic in her answers. Very honest and she accepted her mistakes and that would make her stronger and a fighter

She's beautiful in all angles. She exudes intelligence, confidence and depth. English is not her first language but she has a very good grasp of it and she answers questions readily and precisely. She's very authentic and very relevant. She's another candidate who is confidently beautiful with a heart. She could be the next Misss World.

She’s beautiful inside and out I’m a great fan since watching the pageant she deserves to represent Filipino to the universe she’s been my top 5 finalist love her advocy to represent the ingenious people of Filipino ❤️❤️❤️👍👍

She is beautiful and so she won!!! Congratulations our Queen 2022.

Put it this way ... CELESTE CORTESI is a Force to Reckon with and the ONE to Beat in MUP2022 ✅🇵🇭✅🇵🇭✅

I picked her on just face value the first time I saw her. I didn't know her yet somehow she radiated a unique beauty. Something we've never seen before. She already looks like Miss Universe.

I love how accommodating and entertaining you are to Celeste! Usually interviewers only throw question after question to the guest but you also actually try to start a small conversation with her and share your own opinion about Celeste's answer after! Thank you so much for having her on your channel!

Watching this after MUPH Coronation. Congratulations Celeste Cortesi MU PH 2022! 👑

I love Celeste's authenticity. You're tattoes do not make you less in any way. Laban...

I can see her authenticity the way she answers everything and that is what a true queen be.

Sweetheart, you are every inch a FILIPINA, your softness,confidence, sincerity and burning passionmakes you truly a filipina.

I just stopped watching this and searching Miss Celeste then, wow she improves a lot in communication skills compare to her Miss Earth 2018 q&a.......wiser and stronger woman today❤️

I think she has that aura of a winner!

Damn! This interview just made me switch to Team Celeste!

Her speaking is not bad just like what other people say. She talks with full sincerity and compassion. A true Queen doesn't have to speak eloquently but from the heart.

Thank you, Sir Luis for featuring Ms. Celeste Cortesi. Now I feel excited again and I am cheering for her in her Ms. Universe journey. I just wish she will find the connection of her recent advocacy on indigenous/tribal minorities and their ancestral lands with environmental (natural resources) preservation. These two advocacies are closely related and she as a queen should see the value and essence of both. God bless, Ms. Cortesi, my Ms. Universe 2022!

It's amazing to watch a young woman blossom in front of our very eyes. When she started with Ms. Earth she was preternaturally beautiful but also raw and timid . Now, she's found her voice and she is ready to rule the Universe.

Wow I am really impressed with how she improved her communication skill. She can now express her thoughts freely.

Y’all should rewatch her Q&A from MEP 2018, and y’all will realize her huuuuuuuge improvements comparing her comm skills now. Grabe. This girl is really the front runner of this batch.

Her advocacy is really spot on!

I have a good feeling… She’s gonna be a big winner!

I can't believe the improvement in her speaking skills.. Wow! Sana din marunong na xa magtagalog.

I love how Celeste has grown and sounded mature from her time with Miss Earth Philippines. She looked prettier and her English is great !! So excited for her

I love this interview. Celeste has absolutely improved and still so beautiful. Also such unique and interactive questions, not just “who are you?” or “what is your advocacy?” which is just basic and has no substance. I love that question where you asked her what happened to her in between these two pictures because it’s an open question but gives her the opportunity to give us her personal story any way she feels is appropriate. You also know a lot about the person you’re interviewing so you’re better able to dig deeper into different aspects of her not only as a beauty queen but as an individual. I loved watching this, please do this for more girls! I would love it one day if you became a red carpet interviewer/host for MUPH or even MU ♥️

Wow, she's sure a threat to other queens. She's now the MUPH material. Keep up, Celeste!

She really matured inside I love her she is right to win to represent MU's... Amazing & I Mused!

I love the way she has grown. She is sincere, genuine . She is absolutely beautiful; and muy, muy simpatica! I hope she wins.

Congrats Celeste for winning the Ms. Universe Philippines 2022 last night April 30, 2022. You are a complete package- pretty face, sexy body and strong communication skills and very relatable. You will be one of the strongest candidates in the Ms. Universe 2022. Congratulations!!!!👏👏👏

she answered all the question perfectly with grace but some question had not been heard but its fine... she just smile and u will forget the whole question. coz smile is contagious

The feels when she speaks 🥰 captivating Celeste ❤️

She can speak Italian , like Georgina Rizk , she spoke in French rather than her Lebanese Arabic language during the final Q/A and beautiful Georgina Rizk won Miss Universe crown . She is to me my choice for the MUPH crown .

Hang galeng2x naman nakaka iyak...pebbles ka noon bato kana ngayon😭😭😭 Laban Celeste laban!!! We will support you all the way🙏😍👏 #MUPH2022 and soon to be our 5th Miss Universe❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹

The Earth will conquer the Universe. #celeste #pasay

After watching this interview....im rooting for celeste as MUPH 2022.... she is unique, relatable, humble, beautiful and full of wisdom...

I have seen how stunning she looked but I did know her how inspiring her story is. Thank you so much for empowering us. She is like a phoenix. Very stunning and exceptionally resilient. You deserve the Miss Universe crown!!!! God bless you, goddess.

I like the way Celeste answers all the questions. I'm also rooting for her also hindi dahil taga Pasay kundi nakikita naman na lumalaban talaga sya. Praying for her success this coming April 30. Thank you so much po for this Sir Luis.

be well hija

I am rooting for this queen. I like how she is very authentic and honest about herself and her journey as a beauty queen. Something about her that is very endearing.

Really a stunner with or without make-up! Oozing with authenticity!

What i like about what she said dont let failure in the past define you as a person😀😀😀

It is cruel to be criticized just because you don't speak English or Tagalog. I doubt those who criticized could speak fluently your own native language. There are so many half-Pinoys born abroad and can't speak Tagalog or English fluently. Celeste is an intelligent woman. She learned very fast. I'm glad that she won. Those who bashed her, what do they have? Great interview, Luis. Being a Filipina is having the blood running in one's veins. Period!🌹❤

I can say she is very sure with things. I’m feeling her.

It's really pleasant to listen to her. Not over confident. Just genuine.

She's Miss Universe Philippines 2022!!!!! 👑👸😘🇵🇭

I love your interview with Celesti. She's wonderful.

She's my 1st cousin. 🙂 I'm proud of what she have become. It's true, she did everything on her own since she came here in the Philippines eventhough it was her first time here since she left our country when she was still a baby. She is strong woman like her mom. My beautiful auntie. I hope people will give her the chance to prove herself. Wishing her the best.

Thank u for this Louis👏🏼👏🏼I got to know more of d gorgeous Celeste-she’s a very honest and lovable person❤️🇵🇭

She's definitely relatable, and I love this interview :)

She’s a revelation & very exciting!

What a delight to hear Celeste. She is not only relatable but she speaks with weight with ease. I do like that she refers to family as well and you can tell she grew up with Filipino values. She is innately sexy and seems very comfortable and honest with herself. Very refreshing. Thanks for this interview Luis!

Our beauty pageant candidates in the Philippines had been of mixed race . Pia Wurtzbach, a German-Filipina, Catriona Gray, an Australian -Filipina, Megan Young, an American -Filipina, etc...and there are a lot of other beauties that were of mixed race. Now, we have a very , very beautiful Italian-Filipina and she is deserving to be a representative of our country even though she may not get the crown...I hope to God she wins. You're more Filipina to me than Italian. God bless you and you're going to win

Fan supporting you from Vancouver, Canada Luis and Celeste. I love you guys!

I love your Italian accent Celeste. ❤️

Luis you really always give amazing interviews!
