From Perez Hilton, one of the judges:

While he now is very vocal about his support for Wurtzbach, Hilton admitted that he didn?t think that the Philippine bet would win Miss Universe, saying that he has always considered Colombia?s Gutierrez as a frontrunner in terms of physical beauty.

But he said Wurtzbach ?surprised? him with her fierceness and elegance during the pageant?s swimsuit portion, making him an instant fan.

?I wasn?t expecting much of Miss Philippines from her swimsuit portion so I already had in my mind that she was not going to be that good. And then, she came out and like, boom! She gave me fierceness!? he said. ?I was like, wow! She was rocking this!?

He added: ?So I was originally, like, going to score her way lower and I ended up scoring her way higher? She really surprised me. I didn?t expect her to be so fierce and fabulous in the swimsuit pageant.?

?By then, my favorites were Colombia, Philippines, France, USA and Japan.?

The decision

Hilton said he still was having a hard time deciding when the contestants were narrowed down to three ? the Philippines? Wurtzbach, Colombia?s Gutierrez and USA?s Olivia Jordan.

But in the end he chose Wurtzbach, saying that she is ?perfect for Miss Universe.?


?Here?s the difference between Miss Philippines and Miss Colombia. Miss Philippines came to win, and Miss Colombia came to lose. Colombia came there as if she had already won ? and that?s sexy also and it?s intoxicating to have that confidence ? but I think that she truly believes that she was going to win, whereas Miss Philippines came with something to prove.

?So then when it was the interview portion, I thought that Colombia gave a great answer and the Philippines gave a great answer. And then I was starting to be a bit uncertain but I was still favoring Colombia at that point. And then it was the time for the advocating [question], why should I be Miss Universe? That?s when it became certain for me.

?Because also at that point, oh my God, I didn?t know if the people at home could see this, but Miss Colombia was being straight-up diva rude to her translator. Oh my God. She was like giving the most awful side eye and throwing major shade because Colombia was not happy with the pace or the way that the translator was translating? It was a major turn-off, but it?s not just because of that moment,? he explained.

He continued: ?It wasn?t just that she (Colombia) didn?t give the best answer and it wasn?t just that she came across ? to not just me but several of the other judges ? bitchy and arrogant. It was that Miss Philippines gave a better answer. So it was the second time that she gave a great answer ? actually, a better answer.

?And at that point I just felt that, wow, she really brought her A-game and was super competitive, but also almost like she deserved it. There?s to me, a real beauty and grace and elegance and she is Miss Universe, whereas Miss Colombia, you are Sofia Vergara. You are not Miss Universe, you look so much like Sofia Vergara? She (Philippines) was just being herself and not trying to emulate anybody else. I felt she really earned it fair and square.?
