Looks like the most beautiful woman in the universe wants to start a permanent reign in the Philippines.
During her courtesy call at the Senate yesterday as part of her homecoming itinerary, Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach reportedly expressed that she’s interested in becoming a politician in the future.
Inquirer.net reports that Senator Franklin Drilon, whom Pia spoke to, says he was not surprised by her interest. “Given the political divide that we see today, for her to express interest in politics is something that is admirable for a young woman…I think if she would get into government, she’s very winnable,” he says.
The senator also says that Pia will be a strong advocate for HIV prevention, anti-cyberbullying, and other issues that she’s vowed to fight for as the reigning Miss Universe. (And world peace, maybe?)
“I advised her to try her hand first in some appointed position where she can push her advocacy, rather than join politics in an election,” he says.
If this pushes through, it looks like she and President Benigno Aquino III might bump into each other along the way. But we doubt that they’d get together soon because Pia might want to stay single for a little longer to focus on her job.
