The Top 5 answered questions from the judges. Miss USA Nia Sanchez picked boxing champ Manny Pacquiao whose accent made it a little hard for Nia to understand the question. Same went for Miss Netherlands Yasmin Verheijen and Miss Jamaica Kaci Fennell who made judges Giancarlo Stanton and Emilio Estefan, respectively, repeat their questions.
After the Q&A from the judges, the Top 5 answered a common question from Facebook. Maria Navarro Fernandez’s question was picked. She asks: “What is the greatest contribution of your country to the entire world?”
USA said her country gives back as much as it can, and Netherlands say art and history. Ukraine, meanwhile, say her country is in a difficult time and they have to focus their energies on supporting their armies and rebuilding schools. Jamaica said Bob Marley (music), while Colombia said it’s how they persevere and strive for their goals.
Gavin DeGraw performed a couple of his hit singles for the final look. Jamaica got one of the loudest cheers from the live audience.
The results are in and at any moment, Miss Universe 2013 Gabriela Isler is passing on the crown to the 63rd Miss Universe (2014) winner.
