MANILA, Philippines (UPDATED) - Shamcey Supsup, reigning Bb. Pilipinas-Universe, won third runner-up in the 60th Miss Universe pageant held Monday night (Tuesday morning in Manila) at the Credicard Hall in Sau Paolo, Brazil.
During the pageant's question and answer portion, judge Vivica A. Fox asked Supsup the question: "Would you change your religious beliefs to marry the person that you love? Why or why not?"
The Filipina replied, "If I had to change my religious beliefs, I would not marry the person that I love because the first person I love is God, who created me. I have my faith and my principles, and this is what makes me who I am. And if that person loves me, he should love my God, too."
