To many, Pia Wurtzbach will always be the beauty queen who finally gave the Philippines its first Miss Universe crown after a 44-year drought. Yet, since winning the coveted title in 2015, Wurtzbach has proven she can be more than just a smart and statuesque beauty with a heart.

Immediately after her reign as the most beautiful woman in the world, Wurtzbach harnessed her influence not only to endorse products but, more importantly, to further her advocacies. She also tapped into her artistic talents and acted in TV and movie projects while hosting various engagements when possible.
