For a pageant crazy country like the Philippines winning the Miss Universe crown after 42 years is a great achivement but having a back to back win is quite the ultimate feat.
After Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach won the third crown for the country, the next question is, who is fitted to be her successor that could possibly bring home the crown again?
In the #AskMissUniverse session on Twitter Thursday January 28, Miss Universe 2015 Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach was asked who among the local celebrities has a good chance of becoming the next Miss Universe.
Twitter user @lizasoberabbit asked the question “@MissUniverse Filipina celebrity that you think could be Miss Universe? #AskMissUniverse” to which Pia answered, Liza Soberano.

Pia said she can think of a lot of Filipina celebrity who can succeed her, but in choosing only one, Pia picked Liza Soberano.
“I can think of a lot. But if I had to pick one.. Liza Soberano. She’s beautiful!” – Pia

Like Pia, Liza is also part of Star Magic. So if Pia’s training with Star Magic helped her a lot, it can also be Liza’s advantage. And with Liza’s beauty and stance, no doubt she can really make a good beauty queen, the only question now is, would she be interested to be one?
