Her winning answer

Victoria's victory at Miss Universe 2024 was asked about the most important quality a Miss Universe should possess, she said, "A Miss Universe must be a symbol of empathy and action. She must listen to the world's challenges and use her platform to create tangible change. This means advocating for the voiceless, whether animals or people needing a champion."
