Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach’s advice to the newly crowned incumbent queen Andrea Meza of Mexico to “back up her files” is as realistic as it can get.
During the press conference, Pia lamented how she lost a lot of her pictures because she didn’t have a backup. “Kasi maraming advice na ‘enjoy,’ ‘live in the moment,’ ganyan… Maraming taong magsasabi sa’yo nun, but the real advice is back up your files,” Pia said. She shared that she didn’t accord much importance to keep a backup of her files or memories during her reign.

“’Cause I actually lost a lot of my pictures halfway through my reign because I didn’t back up my files and I’ll never get those pictures and memories back! So real advice, girl, invest in a nice camera, back up your files and the memories will stay forever,” she told Andrea.
Pia said she is looking forward to meeting the Mexican beauty in person. She also shared that she already talked to Andrea privately through social media exchange.
The Filipina beauty earlier congratulated Andrea in a tweet.
Andrea, a 26-year-old software engineer, was crowned as the 69th Miss Universe. She bested more than 70 other beauties from across the world.
