NTG: Panayam kay Miss Universe 2010 4th Runner-up Venus Raj 

Give credit where credit is due ! Venus started it all . Love Venus ! 😍😘

She was the lucky charm that open the doors again for the Philippines to become a title contender in Miss Universe.

my fellow Christian Venus Raj, ang galing ng sagot nya, hindi mahalaga ang corona d2 sa lupa, mas mahalaga ang corona sa langit. Amen

Venus is so smart and well mannered

Venus is the best example of humility and modesty. She never grabs glory and openly declares and shares to whom, what and where praises are given to. Her legacy is simply divine.

Ah,Venus Raj is still my most favorite Miss Philippines ever 'coz she's just so beautiful,royal,real and natural.

It`s my first time to like Venus. She speaks with substance now! Unlike before, parang arteng arte sa pagsasalita. Now, she looks so real! Iba talaga ang nagagawa ng faith sa Lord. She looks genuinely beautiful inside out. Stay humble Venus! A true Queen.

She started it all siya talaga yung nagpakilala sa Philippines sa Ms Universe para sakin shes an inspiration

Who comes here because of the lockdown..👇

Proud of all our representatives in all shapes, shades, & fluency. They're all courageous to bare their souls to the world!

Even if she doesn't won the Crown for me she is the real Winner bcoz she's so smart at napaka bait pa .

Nabanggit ni Kara David na matagal daw hindi pumasok sa top 5 ang Pilipinas sa Miss Universe. She's actually referring to our one decade exclusion in the top 15 (not just top 5). Sa period na yan, magiging masaya na sana ang mga Pinoy kung pumasok ang Pinas kahit sa top 10 or top 15 man lang, pero lagi tayo ligwak noon specifically 2000-2009. Pagdating ni Venus, pumasok sya sa top 15 hanggang top 5. I love you Venus!

Galing.. mapapansin nyo na magaling talga sya at intelligent. :)

MAJOR MAJOR LOVE HER!

Tama nga naman. Bata pa si venus non at galing sa simpleng buhay probinsya. pero ngayon ang laki ng development nya. maganda ang mga sinasabi nya at sagot. after ng competition nag pursige sya. yan ang tunay na panalo.

napaka BOLD na CHRISTIAN naman ni Venus Raj! #UnashamedOfChrist

She was confident! Also the gowns make the winner! Maxene needs an interpreter

Yes and im very proud of her...beautiful..win she is or not...for me she is a miss universe 2010 ...she is lucky girl for me. Sunod sunod pumasok sa runer up ang philippines..

One of the best bodies that year with Jamaica much better than Mexico the winner, her performance was impecable only the q&a killed her felt so bad for her but overall I will always remember her was the beginning of a Filipino legacy making top 5, her evening gown was gorgeous, best catwalk she is gorgeous my best wishes.

Her answer at the pageant made her 4th runner up because her response to the question sounded like she's perfect and have not made any mistake in her life.

The true definition of a beauty queen, inside-and-out! 😭🙌🏾👸🏽🌟✨

Major-major drought talaga yun. Buti nalang major tinapos na nga ni Venus Raj. God bless you always esp. sa masters mo.

You are still my number one MU Philippines!!! God Bless.

I so love Venus eversince....i ve never been affected by her critics bec. Of her answer before...kasi she really did well..lalo na ngaun...Born again na pla xa...ang saya nmn

Galing ng host , alam niya ihandle ung tanung about kay Maxine..i salute u both

Ms. Kara and Venus were both good speakers. Great interview with right choice of words. 🥰

wow!! what i heard is. "Aim for eternal crown rather than physical crown" -venus raj-

She speaks better now 😙 great job V! 😍

She sound very articulate. Love her even though she didn't win. I think going forward, one of the training for our candidate is to take part in hosting a show to be more articulate.

deserve talaga nya all the blessings in the world. maganda, matalino at higit sa lahat may takot sa diyos.

I admire the humility God Bless and keep you always🙏

Well said Venus, May God bless you more and more in Jesus🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕

Watching while in ECQ. Nagrradiate sa kanya not just beauty. Pati si Christ ramdam ko sa mga words nya. Amen.

You are loved, Venus Raj! God bless!

Ms Universe makes a queen from ordinary beautiful women around the world. Sobra na yang Gabriela na yan.

i was once sat with her eating in a carinderia in mandaluyong. she realy has a good soul and very kind.. i was looking to take pictures with her pero i got shy. haha

1999 -2010 miriam to venus. ang susi kasi naging server cla ni LORD :) 700 CLUB ASIA SUPPORTER

Praise God sa buhay mo venus...Godbless you

Dahil dito ay nagsimula ang winning streak ng Pinas sa MU at nagkaroon muli ng sigla sa Philippine pageantry. Venus started a "trend" that one can actually fight for and reach for their dreams the legal way, the legit way and without stepping on anyone's backs. Kaya hindi nanakapagtatakang nahirang siya bilang "curse breaker" and "drought breaker" ng Pinas sa MU at umangat ang sash factor ng Philippines. Dahil rin sa sinumulan niyang winning streak ay muling naging matunog at pinakaaabangan ang mga sumunod na Miss Philippines sa iba't-ibang mga beauty pageant.

In fairness kay Venus Raj, tuloy tuloy yung improvement niya. I love her!

Very good ka talaga Venus!

I love here very much Venus...

From being crowned Miss Universe Philippines 2010 to being dethroned due to alleged birth certificate issues to being reinstated to finishing in the Top Five in Miss Universe 2010. That's the Venus Raj journey to MU 2010.

I really hope you provide english subtitles. Look at venus, after 7 years and her natural beauty is amazed me so much. I love that pinay still stick to their natural beauty. Hello from your Indonesian fan.

She speaks so well!

Venus raj...magaling na sya magsalita ngayon....saludo sayo venus....

Such a beautiful lady. This spontaneous and natural deminour is her best interview yet. Relaxed. Open.

She ages so fast after six years. Unbelievable! Too much makeup will age you faster. She is still nice looking.

more articulate this time with pleasant speaking voice

Si venus talaga ang nagdala.. Napakaganda kaya nung nag top 5 siya, tuloy2 na napapansin ang philippines

I love venus! Class!

My all time favorite Ms. Philippines ❤️❤️❤️❤️

mabuti at nabago ang buhay niya. thanks God

ang mahalaga naman sa sagot ay ang content hindi sa kung paano magsalita ng englis.

God bless you sister Venus.

actually sa totoo lang siya talaga ang bet ng mga judges and then they was just blown away by her answer one host of a television in america even said that ni answer no crown proposing that she could have won it

she speak already very well

Nobody is born humble; humility is a trait that we have to learn instinctively, we want to present the best possible picture to the world, so we go to great lengths to hide our weaknesses and highlight our strengths. Sometimes we go even further by trying to make a good impression at someone else's expense. We're threatened when others receive praise, so we set out to prove that we, not they, deserve the attention. It's the way we've always done things because life has taught us that if we don't promote ourselves no one else will. God says the opposite is true: If we act proud and build ourselves up, we'll be brought down. It's inevitable. But if we stop worrying about impressing everyone and, instead, seek to be genuinely humble, others will end up thinking highly of us. If you've been preoccupied with your image, trying to impress those around you, you've been duped by the world's thinking. From now on, seek to humble yourself and to put others first. That's God's way, and when you think about it, it really does make more sense than the way the world does things.

Si Venus gusto ng interpreter Si Ariella nag ask din ng interpreter both di pinayagan ng Bb Pilipinas.. jusko Madam Stealla and company, wake up.

No issue on major major.... she did her best still and opened the luck for the rest MU BB.pilipinas candidates..

venus raj you looks so matured now

Ang galing ng nag-iinterview.

I love you venus 😊

Mahal ko na ikaw Miss Venus Raj ❤

Obviously the content of the answer. She really stand out among the other contestants. She looks like a walking barbie doll.

Beauty and brains

kase super pressure na sya at medyo kabado,,sino ba namang hindi diba..,..alam mo naman ang mga pinoy,,kala mo sinong mga perpekto sa english,,,good for her na GOD centered sya,,better to be a public servant for her,,.

She is very engaging.

Ms. Venus Your BEAUTIFUL

PI ng Bb. Pilipinas Sa part na "no filipinos are known for speaking in english" letche kayo tinangalan niyo ng karapatan pumili yung Kandidata.

Very well sais

Lalo kitang nagugustuhan Ms. VENUS 😍😘

may mga inconsistencies sa mga sagot nya dito sa interview pero i admire her and she is more mature now

Stunning venus raj

If BPCI allowed Venus to have an interpreter, she could've done better.

Major, major, major, major........ Venus was overwhelming with her answer which caused her big loss.

Kulang sa Training sa Q & A at speech fluency She could have won

Luh, grabi, ano bayan, bawal pala kumuha ng interpreter! Tsktsktsk Pero natutuwa ako Kay Venus sa "YEAH" hahaha

Sa dami nga naman cguro ng pagkakamali nya bilang isang tao mahirap nga naman timbangin kung ano yong biggest mistake..

tumaba sxa ng konti kota sa balikat.mas lumutang ang ganda nya ngayon proud bicolana

Very smart Venus

People can talk about Venus Raj's major-major flub in her Q and A in MU 2010, but finishing in the Top 5 out of 83 contestants is very impressive since the PH went the entire 2000s decade without anyone being placed. Also, Raj's journey to make MU 2010 is remarkable when Binibining Pilipinas dethroned her due to alleged inconsistencies in her birth certificate and needed the Department of Foreign Affairs to step in and overrule BPCI due to the virtue of the jus sanguinis principle. Had Venus not competed in MU 2010, the Philippines' would not have the tremendous amount of success they have in this decade in beauty pageants and a lot of girls would've turned their backs on BB Pilipinas and join other organizations like Miss Philippines Earth. There were two moments in this decade that made the Philippines' a major power player in the beauty pageant scene. 1. Venus Raj saving the Philippines in Miss Universe by being placed as fourth runner-up first time a Philippine beauty queen was placed in Miss Universe since Miriam Quiambao's first runner-up finish in 1999. . 2. The pageant reshuffling in 2011: ABS-CBN took over BB Pilipinas to go along with their coverage with Miss Philippines Earth and Miss World chair Julia Morley ending her contract with Stella Araneta and gave the Miss World franchise to Cory Quirino who rebranded it as Miss World Philippines which was aired in GMA.

Venus's smile is simply angelic!

intelligent.nice.beautiful.

At yung pressure na pinahlaban nya karapatan nya sa bpci sa pagkadetroned nya..lahat yun dala nya..to win sana..pero bcpi kulang sa support..

Tama si venus
