MISS UNIVERSE 2025: FATIMA BOSCH, MEXICO
"As Miss Universe, I will say to them, believe in the power of your authenticity. Believe in yourself. Your dreams matter. Your heart matters.

And never let anyone make you doubt about your worth because you’re worth everything. And you are powerful and your voice needs to be heard."
1ST RUNNER-UP: PRAVEENAR SINGH, THAILAND
"I believe that everyone who has been through all the struggles, failures, anything in life, we can get back up. It's not about how you fail, but how you rise up. I would encourage you all to be your own hero. To light that light within yourself and light it on others.
And if we come together, lift each other up, the world will be a much better place. And I encourage you all to never fear. I am standing here as your next Miss Universe, and I hope to be."
2ND RUNNER-UP: STEPHANY ABESALI, VENEZUELA
"I believe that education and communication go hand by hand to influence positive activity from the girls, from the children, from everyone that watches this platform. I am standing here because with my life experiences, I've been able to become the person I wanted to be.
And this is the representation of a woman that's determined, and with her conviction, she's reacher her goal. And that is what I want all the girls to search for."
3RD RUNNER-UP: AHTISA MANALO, PHILIPPINES
"I work with an organization called Alon Akademie, where we work with young people to provide them opportunities, to make them realize that it doesn't matter what your life circumstances are. It doesn't define where you will go.
And I want to continue working with Alon Akademie on a bigger platform like Miss Universe to pursue making sure that people who come from low-income backgrounds are given the same opportunities as everyone else. Thank you."
4TH RUNNER-UP: OLIVIA YACE, COTE D'IVOIRE
"Well, as an ambassador and Miss Universe, I would want to be the face of a representation, of a new generation that mixes culture, that mixes modern and traditional. I want to be the face of a new era, of woman that are bold, that are leaders, that are unapologetic about who they are.
If I'm Miss Universe, I want to be a role model for other young girls, and let them know that you too can make it. Go in those rooms where you think you don't belong, shine, and make sure you assume your identity."
