Hot off her win, Miss Universe Philippines 2023 Michelle Dee used yet again her now amplified voice to stand up against cyber bullying.
On Twitter, the newly-crowned queen said that the foremost responsibility of any title holder is to use their platform to pursue relevant causes. In her case, she reiterated her position to fight rampant hate attacks of any kind.
“This is definitely the reason why beauty queens should use their platform to lead by example (as we always say proudly on stage). Grateful that #mmdverse knows that I do not tolerate cyber bullying or hate speech of any kind. Proud of us.” she said on Twitter,” she said.
Even prior to her Miss Universe Philippines win, Dee has always been an advocate for mental health and autism awareness.
In past interviews, the 28-year-old stunner said she’s got a first hand view of the bullying experienced by people with special needs growing up with two autistic siblings.
