Supermodel Danica said that we should learn to accept ourselves

After winning the Ford Supermodel of the World 2011, Danica Flores Magpantay said that she is still the same. She is the first Filipina to win the contest although Melanie Marquez went home in 1986 as first runner-up of Canada.

She confessed that at first she was not confident when the competition started because she was intimidated by the blonde girls from Europe and that they are very young and beautiful but by accepting herself as a Filipina and the fact that she could be blonde made her stand out from the rest.

Joey Espino on the other hand believed that Danica won because of her brown complexion. Danica said the Filipino people should accept of what they are and that will help them become successful not only in the Philippines but maybe abroad.
