Miss Puerto Rico 2019 Madison Anderson, First Runner-Up answer
"There are so many things that I would love to teach young girls if I have the opportunity to be your next Miss Universe, such as in a world where so many people wear masks, it’s such a beautiful thing to see an authentic soul. So to embrace your uniqueness, to embrace who you are because you just don’t who you can inspire just by being you. So celebrate that. Thank you."

Miss Mexico 2019 Sofia Aragón, Second Runner-Up answer

"Steve, it’s very important to teach young girls today the importance of their true value. We see so many perfection in social media. Perfect lives. Perfect bodies. Perfect faces. Perfect relationships. Nothing is that real. We have to teach them that who they are is already amazing. Who they are is already worth it. Because what they really are is not what it looks like. It’s what they feel. What they act. And the way they react to the world. I believe a girl is worth for what she has to offer to the world way more than what she looks. Thank you."
