Question given to Miss Philippines Kris Tiffany Janson : "If you were to meet a famous celebrity, no matter if still alive or dead, who would you like to meet and why?"

Her answer was: "If I were to meet a famous person, I would want to meet Malalai Yousafzai. She's a kid who fought for her right for Education. I may not be able to jump into a bullet to fight for my right. But I do have a voice. And if I would be lucky enough to bring home the crown, I would have a louder voice and be the voice of the voiceless and use this to help more people and bring happiness and joy to other people. Daankishen!"
