During the Q&A segment of the final round, Pháo received a question about the immense pressure women face today. She stated that women are under a lot of pressure because they have to struggle between their own desires and their desire to please others.
"I support women having dreams and pursuing them legitimately. Many people think I'm a tough rapper and not suitable for a beauty pageant. Maybe I didn't win the title, but I succeeded in being here. I want to inspire that women deserve to be loved and do what they love," VTC News quoted the beauty queen as saying.
