Philippines’ bet Michelle Dee is one rank away from topping the Miss Universe’s Voice for a Change challenge.
Miss Universe Philippines (MUP) on Thursday announced that Michelle rose to the top 2 rank, thus surpassing her contenders in the category.
The organization invited Filipinos to keep voting for Michelle to help her secure the number one spot in the rankings.
“Thank you, more, please,” MUP said.
“SALAMAT, PILIPINAS! Miss Universe Philippines Michelle Marquez Dee has climbed one spot higher thanks to all your votes! Please keep on voting. You can vote every day! Because with your help, we can be in a more secure spot, we can be no.1!” it added.
The Miss Universe Organization’s Voice for a Change bid requires candidates to share a cause they support and that is important to them through a video entry.
In her advocacy video on October 25, Michelle talked about her autism awareness campaign, citing her two brothers on the autism spectrum.
“I poured my heart out into this video — from the script to every little detail of its execution. I want to thank my team for ensuring I don’t go through this journey alone and for sharing the same passion I have for my lifelong advocacy,” the Makati City delegate said.

“Pilipinas, kaya natin ‘to!” it added.
