In the Top 5 were Misses Australia and France, while Misses Curacao, Dominican Republic, Japan, Thailand and Venezuela were in the Top 10.

Those who stopped in the Top 15 were Misses Belgium, Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico and South Africa.

I actually predicted only 9 of the Top 15, but I can boast that I got the Top 3 so right, with Philippines as my predicted winner and Colombia and USA as her runners-up. (READ: Miss Universe 2015 winner predictions: Miss Philippines FTW!

It took more than 4 decades (42 years) before the Miss Universe crown went back to the Philippines. Past Pinay winners were Gloria Diaz in 1969 and Margie Moran in 1973.

It also took three tries for Pia in the national pageant, Binibining Pilipinas, before finally winning the Miss Universe Philippines 2015 crown and now she's Miss Universe 2015.
