Miss Universe 2016 is over and Iris Mittenaere was crowned as the 65th Miss Universe. People’s favourite Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach passed on her crown to Iris and has been keeping a low profile since then. Currently busy with her personal commitments, Pia Wurtzbach has still managed to come into limelight.
On Thursday, men’s magazine British GQ hailed the Filipina beauty queen as the “Hottest Woman of The Day.” The magazine also shared a photo that was part of Wutzbach’s final photo shoot with the Miss Universe Organization, where she was clad in a Yamamay bikini.
Winning the Miss Universe crown has elevated Pia’s career and has made her a globally recognised public figure. The 27 year old has bagged many opportunities for the year 2017. The beauty queen has signed a contract with New York-based IMG company, whose famous handles include sisters Bella and Gigi Hadid, Gisele Bündchen and plus-size model Ashley Graham. Her popularity can be determined by the fact that the Miss Universe Organisation has appointed Pia as their ambassador. Pia also plans to enroll in classes at the New York Film Academy under a scholarship soon.
Iris Mittenaere was crowned as the 65th Miss Universe on 30th January 2017, and the beauty queen has now started her journey as the reigning queen. We all saw Pia walk on the stage donning that beautiful blue gown during the finale, and gracing the stage as the Miss Universe for one last time. But, little did we know that the beauty queen had an emotional breakdown right before passing on her crown. The moment was captured through the lenses of New York-based photographer Caryn Leigh Posnansky who posted the picture on her Instagram.
