In the Philippines, the pursuit of a Miss Universe crown is not just a competition; it’s a national crusade.Filipinos, renowned for their hospitality and resilience, are now channeling that spirit into ensuring Michelle Dee clinches the tiara. 

Citizens, willing to sacrifice their daily rice intake and part with hard-earned pesos, have turned the Miss Universe fan vote into a battleground of generosity.

But the devotion doesn’t stop there. With a penchant for divine intervention, Filipinos are now appealing to the universe powers for a fifth Miss Universe crown. Novenas, religious statues, and even a touch of kulam (witchcraft) are enlisted in this unconventional campaign. Some might call it over-the-top, others a masterclass in commitment. Either way, in the quest for the prestigious crown, the Philippines is leaving no stone unturned, praying and voting its way into the cosmic spotlight.
