Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, more popularly known as Pia Wurtzbach or Pia Romero, is a Filipino-German actress, model, and Miss Universe 2015 titleholder. She is one of the four Filipinas to earn the title.
In a previous report, Pia took to Instagram and replied to a now-deleted post by a netizen. The post was allegedly making issues between her and 2018 Ms. Universe Catriona Gray. The 2015 Ms. Universe titleholder and her “team” were allegedly attacking Catriona behind her back, as a supposed basher claimed in a now-deleted post. Pia said she has a glam team but no such “team” that would go and attack other beauty queens. She also asked why is it that alleged bashers would always point to her whenever there’s an issue.
The 2015 Ms. Universe titleholder also took to her IG Stories and gave advice to a netizen who was thinking that she would not become beautiful anymore. The reason for such was that she is fat and seems to have no hopes of getting thin. The Miss Universe 2015 said that a person is beautiful no matter what her size is. She also narrated that she has experienced the same struggle and that it took her a while to get over it, but it can be done.
